i know you've been hurt by someone else
i can tell by the way you carry yourself
if you let me
here's what i'll do
i'll take care of you
i've loved and i've lost
i've asked about you and they told me things
but my mind didn't change
and i still feel the same
what's a life with no fun? please don't be so ashamed
i've had mine
you've had yours we both know
we know
they don't get you like i will
my only wish is i die real
'cause that truth hurts
and those lies heal
and you can't sleep thinking that he lies still
so you cry still
tears all in the pillow case
big girls all get a little taste
ah
pushing me away so i give her space
ah
dealing with a heart that i didn't break
i'll be there for you
i will care for you
i keep thinking you just don't know
trying to run from that
say you're done with that
on your face girl
it just don't show
when you're ready
just say you're ready
when all the baggage just ain't as heavy
and the party's over
just don't forget me
we'll change the pace and we'll just go slow
you won't ever have to worry
you won't ever have to hide
you've seen all my mistakes
so look me in my eyes
'cause if you let me
here's what i'll do
i'll take care of you
i've loved and i've lost
yeah
it's my birthday
i'll get high if i want to
can't deny that i want you
but i'll lie if i have to
'cause you don't say you love me
to your friends when they ask you
even though we both know that you do
one time
been in love one time
you and all your girls in the club one time
all so convinced that you're following your heart
'cause your mind don't control what it does sometimes
we all have our nights though
don't be so ashamed
i've had mine
you've had yours
we both know
we know
you hate being alone
you ain't the only one
you hate the fact that you bought the dream
and they sold you one
you love your friends but somebody shoulda told you somethin' to save you
instead they say
don't tell me
i don't care
if you hurt
i don't tell you
you don't care
if you're true
don't tell me
i don't care
if you hurt
i don't tell you
you don't care
if you're true
i know you've been hurt by someone else
i can tell by the way you carry yourself
if you let me
here's what i'll do
i'll take care of you
i've loved and i've lost
