This is new
I was never one
To hold back
To stop before I speak
To think before I give
I live to love
And love to live
And you
You make it so difficult
For me to refuse
The way you say my name
The way you stroke my hair
The way you make me feel
I can soar
But you
You scare me so
The way you never seem
To need saving
The way you carry yourself
And hold the world
In the palm of your hand
You do not need me
And I know
You can bury our memories
As fast as brushing dust
From your shoulders
You scare me
Because I want you to need me
I need you to save me
You scare me
Because what I found with you
Was so much more
Than what I had bargained for
And I want it all
But I have to hold back
To stop and think
Because this is new
I cannot save you
I have nothing to offer you
And you
You have everything
And you lose nothing
Without me.
