Never wanted an ordinary life
Never saw myself living
As someone's else's device
So I took on the world
And the world took me on
Try to follow this road that I've stumbled upon
'Cuz our minds' at the mercy of our hearts
And we choose the wrong people who pick us apart
We reach for the fire surprised when it burns
Love selflessly but silently pray it's returned
You ask what can I do
Everything changes in time
When I met you I knew I'd have to read between the lines
'Cuz we live in our own little worlds
Where our truths and our lies are honest but blurred
And we're scarred by the guilt
For those we've left behind
So scared to make the same mistakes time after time
We can say that we're broken
But we can't say why
How can I make you laugh
More than I make you cry?
I don't need you to write my songs
I don't need you to tell me I'm right when I'm wrong
I don't need you to fight for me
I can be strong!
I just need you to hold me all night long
All night long
All night long
I don't need you to say
This is where I belong
I just need you to hold me
All night long
All night long
You ask what can I do
I don't need you to write my songs
I don't need you to tell me I'm right when I'm wrong
I don't need you to fight for me
I can be strong!
I just need you
I don't need you to write my songs
I don't need you to tell me I'm right when I'm wrong
I don't need you to fight for me
I can be strong!
I just need you to hold me all night long
All night long
All night long
I don't need you to say
This is where I belong
I just need you to hold me
All night long
