Halfway heart

Verse 1
I’ve never been the careful kind
Never stayed inside the lines
When it comes to heart and feelin’ things
I don’t do in-betweens
Pre-Chorus
They say take it slow, don’t give too much
But I ain’t ever learned that touch
Chorus
I don’t know how to love halfway
Don’t know how to take it day by day
If I’m in, I’m all the way
Ain’t no part of me that plays it safe
I don’t hold back, I don’t stall
I ain’t got a halfway heart at all
I either don’t… or give it all
Verse 2
I’ve tried to guard this heart of mine
Tell myself “this time, take your time”
But the second somethin’ feels this real
I forget what slow’s supposed to feel
Pre-Chorus
Maybe someday I’ll learn control
But right now that ain’t how I roll
Chorus
I don’t know how to love halfway
Don’t know how to take it day by day
If I’m in, I’m all the way
Ain’t no part of me that plays it safe
I don’t hold back, I don’t stall
I ain’t got a halfway heart at all
I either don’t… or give it all
Bridge
Maybe it’s a blessing, maybe it’s a curse
Lovin’ like this always hurts
But I’d rather feel it all the way
Than never feel a thing that way
Final Chorus (bigger, owning it)
I don’t know how to love halfway
And I don’t think I’ll ever change
If I fall, I fall all in
Even if it breaks again
That’s just how this heart was made
I ain’t got a halfway heart, no way
I either don’t… or give it all
