Love me like you want to be loved
but not now

Love me like you wanted to love
when you were young

Before your first love let you down
before your first heartbreak

Before you cried those sad tears
before you felt the pain

Love me like that
if you can

I promise I won't
let you down

I'm sorry he did
but I'm not him

In return I'll love you back
how you expected the first time

Before all the insecurities were born
before your trust was broke

Love so pure and unconditional
love so raw and unaltered

I think that's what
we both long for

I could be wrong
but I hope I'm not

I love you like that
will you love me back?
