if you wanted to
i could give to you
all of me for all of you
it's like trying to make pretend
that you're not standing on the fence
you keep holding back the real thing
my inner voice is listening
even when your skin is glistening
sometimes the words you say
reveal that something missing
at times you ask me to be some things
that i'd love to be if i knew for sure
if you had intentions to see this all the way through
girl, i'm a man of complexity
i got my best days ahead of me
but it wouldn't mean nothing
without someone to share
if you let go of your fears from the past
i would give you
live the rest of our days with a love that's made to last
i wanna give you
i could barely count or weigh the amount
pounds of my heart, more than an ounce
i tried to pronounce the language of love
even willing to bounce to the land that you love
start a village, grow a citadel
a flourishing kingdom, hmmm, we did it well
maybe i didn't tell what the meaning of all is
the world that revolves is the common denominator
the heartbreaker, the better half of me that's much greater
do me a favor give me all not half
if love takes work, don't make this a task
or sip me like a flask, or genie in a bottle
