[Intro]
Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 1]
Tryna get through
Closer to you
This shadow of doubt
Has made it so hard to
But every day, you tear away
A piece of the wall
Built around me
Baby, I, I know

[Chorus]
Slowly I'm believing what I'm seeing
Suddenly I'm trusting what I'm feeling, oh
This time this love ain't leaving me cold
'Cause I, I know

[Verse 2]
You're quite the sound
Of a heart thats still unsure
You hold my hand
When I'm ready to run out that door
And I, I know

[Chorus 2]
When I tell you I love you, I mean it
For the first time (Time), I'm not afraid (Afraid)
I'm needing you so
No matter, no matter what
I'm not leaving you, no
'Cause I, I know, I, I know

[Bridge]
So when I tell you I love you
Know I mean every word
And when you tell me you love me
It's the sweetest truth I've ever heard
Oh, and I-I-I know
You're lovin' me, no doubt, no

[Outro]
I-I-I know
I-I-I know
Finally got through
Closer to you
