You say it's hard for you to trust, you still have doubts

Then you, you act so sweet that I can't wrap my head around it

Little things that pile up until it all comes tumbling down again

You always leave me with the wreckage when you go

Feels like, tiptoeing landmines scattered around our bedroom floor

And it's up to me to diffuse them all before you get back home

Oh it used to feel so good

When you put your hand in mine

It used to feel so right

But now you are holding on just a little too tight

I need some more leeway than you're giving me, baby

I need some more leeway than you're giving me, babe

We've been through this before

I ain't walking out that door

But I need just a little more leeway than you're giving me, babe

You used to tell me to go chase down all my dreams

But I woke up one morning and you'd gone and clipped my wings

You say that love can set you free

But lately all I see is a fear behind your eyes when you tell me that you love me

Oh it used to feel so good

When you put your hand in mine

It used to feel so right

But now you are holding on just a little too tight

I need some more leeway than you're giving me, baby

I need some more leeway than you're giving me, babe

We've been through this before

I ain't walking out that door

But I need just a little more leeway than you're giving me, babe

I need some more leeway than you're giving me, baby

I need some more leeway

I need some more leeway than you're giving me, baby

I need some more leeway than you're giving me, babe

You know I want you close

But I'll have to let you go

Cause I need just a little more leeway than you're giving me, baby

I need some more leeway
