[Pre-Intro]
Oh oh ohhhh
Oh ooh ohhh
[Intro]
You’ve been waiting so long
I’ve been stringing you along (along)
[Verse]
keep promising a lifetime, yeah, I swear
But my mind keeps wanderin’, caught up in the air
I don’t know if I’m ready to give you what you need
Heart still got doubts, yeah, I’m lost in my own speed
I don’t wanna waste your good years, not your time
I see your love shinin’, don’t wanna dim your light
I keep sayin’ “forever,” but my heart’s in flight
Tryna find the balance between wrong and right
Late nights thinkin’, wrestlin’ with my truth
Don’t wanna hurt you now, don’t wanna steal your youth
I’m tryna grow, tryna learn who I gotta be
Before I can love you fully, gotta set myself free
[Pre Chorus]
I know patience is a gift, I hope you see
I’ll be better someday, just gotta find me
I keep my promises, even if I’m blind
Hope you understand, I don’t wanna waste your time
[Chorus]
I love you, but I’m still findin’ me
I can’t give you all your dreams, I can’t promise endlessly
Don’t wanna hold you back, don’t wanna make you stay
I need time to heal my heart, then maybe I’ll be okay
I’m tryna be the one, but I’m not there yet
I don’t wanna break your heart, I don’t wanna regret
I love you, but I’m still learnin’ how to be
The girl you need
[Verse]
Every smile you give, I feel it in my chest
But love’s complicated, I need to do my best
I’m caught between my heart and all my fears
Tryna hold it together while I fight these tears
I see the future, but it’s blurry in my mind
I don’t wanna leave you hangin’, but I gotta find
The version of me that can give you my all
Before I let you in, I gotta break down my walls
[Bridge]
I know it hurts, I see it in your eyes
But love ain’t easy, it comes with compromise
I gotta find my peace, I gotta find my way
Then I can love you right
[Violin Solo]
[Final Chorus]
I love you, but I’m still findin’ me
I can’t give you all your dreams, I can’t promise endlessly
Don’t wanna hold you back, don’t wanna make you stay
I need time to heal my heart, then maybe I’ll be okay
I’m tryna be the one, but I’m not there yet
I don’t wanna break your heart, I don’t wanna regret
I love you, but I’m still learnin’ how to be
The girl you need
[Outro]
Ooohhhhh I don’t want to lead you on
Nooo I don’t want to lead you on
I just can’t be
Just can’t be
The girl you need
Noooo I
