I rather be the one with no love to give
Well at least for now, that’s my stand
Because everyone knows that when you feel deeply,
Control is no longer in your hands.

I rather be the one with love to receive
Because if that were my place now,
I wouldn’t be sitting here alone
Thinking of a way to get to you somehow.

I rather be where you are,
I rather see you how you see me,
Because if I were to turn the tables,
I can go on life letting you be.

I rather it were that simple,
How I wish I knew how
To just not care what youre thinking
Or with whom and where you are now.

But I also rather I had the right to be with you
Everywhere you go,
I rather you ask me to be with you,
I rather I had the right to know.

I rather you cared more, I guess,
Because, honestly, I took a leap for you.
I crashed hard but you gave me some rope,
What’s a girl to do?

I knew I shouldn’t have given it a second thought,
From the start I knew it meant nothing at all,
Despite of what I knew,
I still let myself fall.

You can't blame me for trying
But I guess I know my place now
You do it so well, I don’t know what exactly,
Go ahead take your bow.

It’s not your fault,
Not at all,
From the start
I never should have let you break down my wall.

But look at us now
I’ve decided to look away
I don’t have the right but it hurts
When you wouldn’t mean the words I want you to say.

I rather you were here,
Even if you weren’t here for me
But I rather you were here for me.
I rather you were here for me.
