Equal?

She said, “You love me too much, boy, slow it down a bit.”

But love ain’t a scoreboard, you don’t keep track of it.

I gave her my heart, yeah, every single beat,

But she wanted a balance, not me at her feet.

I ain’t no saint, but I ain’t holdin’ back,

Gave her my all, and she called it an attack.

I told her, “Darlin’, love ain’t a scale,

It’s a wildfire blaze, not a measured trail.”

Since when is love equal? Who’s keepin’ the score?

Ain’t no halfway when your heart wants more.

You say I’m too much, but it don’t feel wrong,

If love ain’t crazy, then it ain’t that strong.

She wanted fifty-fifty, a perfect little split,

But love ain’t a bargain, it’s all or it’s quit.

I’m here fightin’ for her, layin’ it on the line,

But she’s worried ‘bout numbers instead of feelin’ the shine.

Tried to pull back, but it ain’t who I am,

I’m a full-throttle lover, not some measured man.

I ain’t sorry for the way that I feel,

If it ain’t overwhelming, it ain’t even real.

Since when is love equal? Who’s keepin’ the score?

Ain’t no halfway when your heart wants more.

You say I’m too much, but it don’t feel wrong,

If love ain’t crazy, then it ain’t that strong.

Girl, you got my head spinning like a vinyl track,

But if my love’s too loud, you can hand it back.

I’d rather be lonely with my heart out on my sleeve,

Than play it safe and watch you leave.

Since when is love equal? Who’s keepin’ the score?

Ain’t no halfway when your heart wants more.

You say I’m too much, but it don’t feel wrong,

If love ain’t crazy, then it ain’t that strong.

So, I’ll keep lovin’ big, with nothing to prove,

If that’s too much for you, I’ll still make my move.

Since when is love equal? That’s not what it’s for,

Love’s about givin’, not evening the score.
