A Little Thing Like Love

Original

You talk sweet like Sunday morning, say the right words at the right time.

But I've learned not to lean on promises, they don't hold when the wind starts to climb.

You touch my hand like it means forever, but forever's just a lie we say.

I've been down this road enough to know that feelings fade like sun in May.

I don't need a fairy tale to keep me warm.

I don't need to change who I've become. What's a little thing like love gonna do to me?

I've been whole long before you came to be. I don't need saving, no silver lining.

It's sweet, but it's not defining.

What's a little thing like love gonna do to someone like me? Someone like me.

Your eyes say stay, but my heart remembers how quick the spark can lose its flame.

I've danced in rooms where the truth got quieter till I couldn't hear my name.

I like the way this moment's moving, the rhythm soothes the space we're in, but don't confuse my smile for surrender. I know exactly what this is.

I don't need a reason to feel alive.

I don't need your arms to make it right. What's a little thing like love gonna do to me?

I've been whole long before you came to be. I don't need saving, no silver lining.

It's sweet, but it's not defining.

What's a little thing like love gonna do to someone like me?

Someone like me, yeah.

I built a world that doesn't fall apart every time a stranger steals my heart.

So don't you worry if I take it slow, I'm just learning how to let it show.

What's a little thing like love gonna do to me?

I've been whole long before you came to be. It's soft, it's real, but it won't undo me.

I know the tune, I'll choose how it moves me.

What's a little thing like love gonna do to someone like me?

Someone like me.
