You Ain’t Gotta Pour No More
Verse 1 Girl, I see you tryin’ to hide that tired Behind that smile you wear like armor You give your last just to keep folks warm Even when your world’s on fire You been everybody’s answer, yeah Always fixin’ what you didn’t break But who’s been holdin’ you together Every time your heart starts to ache? Pre-Chorus You don’t gotta earn my arms tonight You ain’t gotta fight to be alright Chorus You ain’t gotta pour no more love out Baby, you can lay your burdens down I don’t need a thing from you Just let me love what you’ve been through All that hurt you try to hide I’ll hold it like it’s mine tonight Girl, you don’t owe me nothin’ at all You ain’t gotta pour no more Verse 2 I know you been runnin’ on empty Still givin’ like your well ain’t dry But I see the cracks in your halo And the tears you don’t let cry You think love’s a debt you gotta pay Like it’s somethin’ you can lose But I ain’t here to take a thing I’m just here to give to you Pre-Chorus Let me be the place you rest You ain’t gotta give your best Chorus You ain’t gotta pour no more love out Baby, you can lay your burdens down I don’t need a thing from you Just let me love what you’ve been through All that hurt you try to hide I’ll hold it like it’s mine tonight Girl, you don’t owe me nothin’ at all You ain’t gotta pour no more Bridge (Soulful, emotional lift) If your cup’s run dry, I’ll fill it up If your faith gets low, I’ll lift you up You been strong for way too long Let me be where you belong Yeah… You don’t gotta be perfect to be mine I see your heart, and it’s divine Breakdown (spoken/sung) Come here, baby… Ain’t nobody ever loved you like this, huh… Final Chorus (bigger, gospel feel) You ain’t gotta pour no more love out Let me be the one that pours now I don’t need a thing from you Just your heart the way it’s bruised Every scar and every line Girl, I swear they shine to me You don’t owe me nothin’ at all You ain’t gotta pour no more Outro (Spoken) You’re worth more than what you give… That’s why I’m standin’ here… God knows your heart… And I do too…
