lyrics

I have learned the hard way to keep everyone at an arm’s length
Now I must say I’m afraid
I have spent a long time lost in my own skin
When I think it’s safe to breathe
I get chased back in
I’ve learned it’s easier to hide than to let someone inside
But something in you makes me want to try

And I know one day
You could be the one to break my heart
Yeah you’ll break my heart and yet anyway
I would rather it were you than anyone if my heart is gonna break

It’s the oldest story that only fools fall in love
But when I close my eyes at night you’re the one I’m thinking of
And so maybe I’m a fool
But I’m a fool in love with you

And I know one day
You could be the one to break my heart
Yeah you’ll break my heart and yet anyway
I would rather it were you than anyone if my heart is gonna break

It won’t always be easy
It won’t always be good
But that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try
To make it all we could

And I know one day
You could be the one to break my heart
Yeah you’ll break my heart and yet anyway
I would rather it were you than anyone
if my heart is gonna break

And so maybe I’m a fool
But I’m a fool in love with you
