I spent so long,
Trying not to feel.
Some time went on,
And my heart turned to steel.
I think I was afraid,
Of being hurt,
From the heartbreak stories I heard.
Then you came along, I fell to the floor,
My heart started beating in time with yours.
Stay forever, stay.
I’d never throw your love away.
Just stay forever, stay.
I’d do what I have to do, anything for you
Now I know,
I will never be the same if I let you go.
So stay forever, stay.
I know it took so long but you were worth the wait.
I was so wrong,
Thinking I could heal.
I hid my scars,
That time would not conceal.
I think I was in pain,
Needed a cure,
From the Heartbreak horror I wore.
Then you came along
And set my heart free.
Now I can't believe you said to me:
Please don’t leave me alone.
I’m no good on my own.
Just a beast in the dark,
Just a waste of a heartbeat.
I know I would survive,
But I know I wouldn’t feel so alive.
Some hearts might break.
I guess that’s the risk we take.
