[Verse 1] You say you’re fine with that tired little smile The one I see when you close yourself within I know you're about to shut me out It kills to know you don't believe me Every time I said I'll hold you Every promise I’d make again You lean in close but never trust Never let yourself follow me [Pre-Chorus] It's in your eyes But you fear that I may leave So you build these walls But hurt yourself for hiding the truth [Chorus] I'm by your side No agenda on my mind You can doubt a thousand times But I will still be standing near So let me walk with you Until you learn it’s true When that voice that says I’ll leave Stops echoing in your head And when you let me in You'll see I meant it from the start Yeah, forever yours And God, you're worth it all [Verse 2] You disappear inside your mind Get lost in thoughts I wish you wouldn’t hide Make up stories about what I’ll say All to run from the chance that I won’t stay But you don’t notice every word Every promise, every time You’re still fighting ghosts born of yesterday When all I’ve ever done is choose you -yes you [Pre-Chorus] You want forever So look right in front of you Stop waiting for the day when I leave You’ll be waiting forever [Chorus] I'm by your side No agenda on my mind You can doubt a thousand times But I will still be standing near So let me walk with you Until you learn it’s true When that voice that says I’ll leave Stops echoing in your head And when you let me in You'll see I meant it from the start Yeah, forever yours And God, you're worth it all [Bridge] You’re a wildfire in soft skin A storm pretending to be calm You want me to understand you Without asking what is wrong And I swear You don’t have to earn my love I see who you really are Every shattered piece is one more thing to love [Final Chorus] You think you’re hard to love But I’m looking at you And all I see is beauty A heart that’s worth more than you know So I will fight for your heart Through every wall and every fall And I’ll stay through every darkness If you just let me in Yeah, I came for you I’ll stay till you see it too [Outro] So when you’re quiet You don’t ever have to speak Just remember I can see The heart beneath your history
