Current

"Easy for you to say,"
You say
But I see things
A different way

Love isn't as easy as little girls think
Love isn't as simple as everyone dreams
For him to love you back is "all that you need"
But his part in the deal is all that you see

What if he did, let me ask you that--
Would all of your problems leave you just like that?
Would you finally gain everything that you lacked?
Or... would you even believe that he loves you back?

For me it was like a dream
I didn't wanna wake up
How could he love a child
Who didn't even wear make up?

Tried to convince myself it was true
I always doubted, sometimes still do
And how is he gonna deal with all my feelings?
And the past really hurt me, when will I start healing?

And now it's a downhill slope and I can't fall too fast
And we've gotta pace ourselves just so we know we'll last
And even then I love him too much and cannot let him go
If he leaves me one of these days I will have lost my home

Love is too far beautiful for me to ever lose
If you keep on searching for it, count yourself a fool
I swear I never looked for it, never even knew
Till I caught myself looking for him first
Every time I entered the room

Agitation

And fifteen-year-olds, they
Doubt they'll find love
As though God doesn't have a plan
That doesn't bother them enough

No one else can see it but me
They don't see what they're supposed to see

A lack of faith, a lack of trust
That God provides all needed love
