Surface

You could be the big mistake I make
But that's the chance I'm willing to take
I need to know
Cause, Lord, I'm so alone
Afraid to fall, but all in all
The lessons learned have made me tall
And now I'm getting close
To what I want the most
And I do
I'm taking each breath to make each step to you
I'm holding on tight to keep things mine
And ooh, Baby I need to find truth
So let's move and get to know the girl I never knew
Four years searching, not a scratch on the surface
Giving my time but love is just a circus
And I'm caught in the ring
Just looking at everything
'Cause you're somewhere here
You're somewhere there
You're playing these tricks and it's not fair
But I'm gonna get you soon
There's only so much room
And I do
I'm taking each breath to make each step to you
I'm holding on tight to keep things mine
And ooh, Baby I need to find truth
So let's move and get to know the girl I never knew
Maybe I need to lose
Everything that I'm used to
Maybe I need to lose
Everything that I used from you
Maybe I need to lose
Everything that I'm used to
Maybe I need to lose
Everything that I used from you
And I do
I'm taking each breath to make each step to you
I'm holding on tight to keep things mine
And ooh, Baby I need to find truth
So let's move and get to know the girl I never knew
You could be the big mistake I make
But that's the chance I'm willing to take
I need to know
Cause, Lord, I'm so alone
