But I want to surrender
I want tears to come out
The sooner we'll start
The sooner I'll be done
What the hell did they do to you
To make you so scared
Of falling in love
Feeling you care
I prey one day out there
You will find a love
That crowns you
And all the fears will come undone
Oh baby, baby
What can I do
To make it right for you
