[intro] So hard to love When you don't love yourself But I don't want to be with anyone else facing myself and living my truth All I want to do is be with you [verse] You can be alone in a crowd Silence can be so damn loud. Sometimes it's hard to look up No matter how full is your cup. [chorus] you got to love you (you) before you love me, (me) So we can love us (us) you got to love you (you) before you love me, (me) So we can love us (us) [verse] It's hard to tell the truth (to yourself) And I'm guilty of that too it's a shame to see something beautiful When no one's next to you (oh) Why sit on the throne? when you walk alone Forget about what you own When we can build a home [chorus] you got to love you (you) before you love me, (me) So we can love us (us) you got to love you (you) before you love me, (me) So we can love us (us) [bridge] (If we going to do this need to do it right now) (You can be with me and I'm telling you how) (I don't want to be with anyone else) (But you got to learn how to love yourself) [verse] Baby you know it's true, I'm never giving up on you. So let’s not waste this time Say that you’ll be mine [chorus] you got to love you (you) before you love me, (me) So we can love us (us) you got to love you (you) before you love me, (me) So we can love us (us) [outro] (baby I share in your joy and your pain) (You know someday I'll give you my name) (We got more than most others do) I'm promising my life to you You got to love you Before you love me So we can love us (love us)
