Sometimes you know you push me so hard I don't know how I feel You almost make me doubt I feel at all It's not as though I always listen But there's just so much I don't hear Maybe I'll never be what you want I know that all you're asking for Is a little place in my heart But I don't find it easy to give Maybe I get a little selfish sometimes Why shouldn't I? I used to say I love you But would it make a difference this time? [Chorus] And who am I to tell you that I would never let you down That no-one else could love you half as much as I do now? And who am I to tell you I'll always catch you when you fall? Well I, I wouldn't be myself at all I wouldn't be myself at all, at all I always find a reason why I didn't put you first It's not that complicated I know I really hate it when you shake your head like this ain't gonna work Maybe you'll never reap what you sow [Chorus] I didn't want to do what everybody does And hide the truth to find we never knew a thing about love 'Cause this is real life, real love And knowing what it comes down to It just might be enough [Chorus x 2]
