I gave up a long time ago

Trying to find love

Tv told me it was like the movies

But it never was

I couldn't beat it or join it so

I just avoided it

Come what may

Then you came

And I wanna hold you in my arms

I wanna let you break my heart

I wanna feel the way it feels to make you stay

And I know you'll bring me to my knees

I know you're way out of my league

I know I can't afford the price I'm gonna pay

But I want you anyway

It's so self betrayal of me

I'm about to say all the things

Sworei'd never say

But my heart's in my mind drawing lines

I can't erase

And all of a sudden

All that wasn't so beautifully is

When we kiss

And I wanna hold you in my arms

I wanna let you break my heart

I wanna feel the way it feels to make you stay

And I know you'll bring me to my knees

I know you're way out of my league

I know I can't afford the price I'm gonna pay

But I want you anyway

The way the light hangs off you

I never stood a chance

See you changed every plan

I had with one glance

And I wanna hold you in my arms

I wanna let you break my heart

I wanna feel the way it feels to make you stay

And I know you'll bring me to my knees

I know you're way out of my league

I know I can't afford the price I'm gonna pay

But I want you anyway
