I cannot say much
For we have just begun
A rocky start
We're managing to overcome
There's a fragileness about you
One I almost failed to see
How you're so scared of being hurt
Scared to completely open up
Scared to just be
We're all broken in one way or another
Heart torn to pieces by an ex lover
Scared to admit we're no longer the same
It's always much easier to say love is to blame
Feeling worthless, like you got nothing more to give
But there's a fire burning inside you
You just gotta first forgive
Yourself, for being foolish and naive
For not knowing what you wanted
And thus causing you to grieve
You don't realize your charms
And what makes you oh so sweet
And when it comes to other girls
There is no need to compete
And if in the end
Things for us aren't meant to be
Then let it be so
I just want you to know
That every word I've said
Has come from the soul
You deserve to be happy
You deserve to know what love is
It's the most wonderful high
And if I can
Then I'll show you what I think love is
