Why is love such a loaded word
To fear it so is completely absurd
Yet I promised myself I’d keep my mouth shut
Tell myself you’ve been wrong before
You know you won’t be wronged once more
Because she’s somewhere between
All that I want and all that I need
I feel as vulnerable as I’ve ever been in all my life
Always kept up this shield never once felt forced to tell a lie
oooh
You make it easy to be myself
So why do I feel like I’m someone else
I’m way too afraid of messing this up
I want to hold you all through the night
kiss you and tell you things are alright
Because you’re somewhere above
All that I want in someone I love
[chorus]
Like I will always be by your side
I don’t have anything to hide
These are things I can’t promise to hold to
But I’ll try
