I can't heal the heart that longs to stay broken
But doesn't know it
That's been cut open
By too many words unspoken
It was left with
Expectations and their disappointments
This time it's with love
It's hard to hold my hand
I pulled it back so many times
'Cause not everything I say or do somehow relates to you
I was so bitter, I'd reconsider
Again
But this time it's with love
This time it's with love
I still sometimes think you
Should have been wiser
Should have been stronger
Should have been bolder
But I've gotten older
And I got wiser
Maybe one day I will let my heavy head
Hang on your old and fragile shoulder
And this time it's with love
This time it's with love
