[00:19.59]a long time ago
[00:20.76]and all i ever
[00:23.13]wanted was love
[00:24.96]then somebody came around
[00:26.43]and tried to hurt me
[00:28.20]try to make me feel like
[00:29.79]i was unworthy
[00:31.65]took a pure love and tried to

[01:03.54]i was worth receiving it
[01:05.28]but all i ever wanted was love
[01:09.27]theres something awkward
[01:10.41]about the selflessness it takes to
[01:12.69]give love and the good
[01:14.28]that it makes you!
[01:15.48]true love can never really
[01:17.79]forsake you
[01:19.38]but it took a little while

[01:50.79]and i couldnt love you perfectly
[01:52.47]with that fear in my head
[01:54.36]so i perilously had to
