You ask me if i love you and i choke on my reply
I'd rather hurt you honestly than mislead you with a lie
And who a'm i to judge you on what you say or do
I'm only just beginning to see the real you
And sometimes when we touch the honesties too much
And i have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you till i die, till we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides
Romance and all it's strategies leaves me battling with
My pride but through the insecurities some tenderness
Survives, and just another writer still trapped within my truth
The hesitant prize fighter, still trapped within my youth
And sometimes when we touch the honesties too much
And i have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you till i die, till we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides
At times i'd like to break you and drag you to your knees
At times i'd like break through and hold you endlessly
At times i understand you and i know how hard you try
I've watched my love commands you and I've watched
Love pass you by, at times I think were drifters still searching
For a friend, a brother or a sister, but then the passion flares again
And sometimes when we touch the honesties too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you till i die, till we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides
I'd rather hurt you honestly than mislead you with a lie
And who a'm i to judge you on what you say or do
I'm only just beginning to see the real you
And sometimes when we touch the honesties too much
And i have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you till i die, till we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides
Romance and all it's strategies leaves me battling with
My pride but through the insecurities some tenderness
Survives, and just another writer still trapped within my truth
The hesitant prize fighter, still trapped within my youth
And sometimes when we touch the honesties too much
And i have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you till i die, till we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides
At times i'd like to break you and drag you to your knees
At times i'd like break through and hold you endlessly
At times i understand you and i know how hard you try
I've watched my love commands you and I've watched
Love pass you by, at times I think were drifters still searching
For a friend, a brother or a sister, but then the passion flares again
And sometimes when we touch the honesties too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you till i die, till we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides
