The poem suggests love is like the ocean - full of conflict and pain. Love provides shelter from life's storms, comfort, and warmth during times of trouble. Even if one loses themselves, the memory of love will guide them home or see them through hard times. While definitions of love vary, the enduring memory of love will be cherished forever should dreams come true.

1. PERHAPS LOVE IS LIKE THE OCEAN

25. Perhaps love is like a resting placeA shelter from the stormIt exists to give you comfortIt is there to keep you warmAnd in those times of troubleWhen you are most aloneThe memory of love will bring you homePerhaps love is like a windowPerhaps an open doorIt invites you to come closerIt wants to show you moreAnd even if you lose yourselfAnd don't know what to doThe memory of love will see you throughOh, love to some is like a cloudTo some as strong as steelFor some a way of living For some a way to feelAnd some say love is holding onAnd some say letting goAnd some say love is everythingAnd some say they don't know

26. Perhaps love is like the oceanFull of conflict, full of PainLike a fire when it's cold outsideOr thunder when it rainsIf I should live foreverAnd all my dreams come trueMy memories of love will be of youAnd some say love is holding onAnd some say letting goAnd some say love is everythingAnd some say they don't knowPerhaps love is like the oceanFull of conflict, full of PainLike a fire when it's cold outsideOr thunder when it rainsIf I should live foreverAnd all my dreams come trueMy memories of love will be of you Words and music by John Denver
