Verse 1
Why won’t you let me love you?
You keep turning away, though I’m right here for you
Every time I get close, you slip through my hands
Like you’re scared of the truth, like you don’t understand
I don’t know why you’re making it harder
When my heart’s only trying to love you
---
Pre-Chorus
We've been standing in a fire, both so damn tired of steadily burning
Fighting through the rain this love is like a storm
It seems like its a maze and the roads just keep on turning, turning
Mmmm
Baby
you keep your guard up like I’m the enemy
When all I ever wanted was you to believe in me
Chorus
I can’t help it, I already do
And it won’t stop, no matter what I choose to do
Why’d you pull me in just to push me away?
If you didn’t wanna feel this, why’d you make me stay?
Every time I try to love you, baby
You shut me out like it’s easy
Why won’t you let me love you?
When I already do
Verse 2
You say it’s complicated, but I see straight through
You’re afraid of the fall, so you’re breaking the truth
But love ain’t love if you’re holding it in
And I’m not the one who taught you how to pretend
So tell me now, before I’m too far gone
Are you gonna let me in, or keep me hanging on?
Bridge
Maybe you’re scared of the way I care
Of a love that’s too real, too much to bear
But I’m not here to hurt you, no
I just wanna watch this feeling grow
I’ll take the weight, I’ll take the fear
If it means I get to keep you near
Final Chorus
Why won’t you let me love you
When it’s all I’ve been dying to do?
Why won’t you let me hold you close
And give you more than you’ve ever known?
I’m standing right here, I’m not walking away
So why you keep on pushing me, babe?
Why won’t you let me love you
When I already do
Outro (soft, stripped-down)
Why won’t you let me love you?
Oh, I already do…
Yeah, I already do…
Baby i just wanna
Wanna
Damn it i fucking
Love
Love
Lo lo love you
Mmhm
