Lyrics

My love is tentative with his steps
But he holds me lonely in his arms and always tries his best
He gives me kisses on both my cheeks
Tell me have you ever had a love
That makes your knees go weak
For so long I've denied myself
I would never need another, I would never ask for help but
There it goes, my Achilles heel
I am fickle and I'm frightened but I let myself feel like a
Child, a child
Sometimes I feel like a moth to a flame
Getting caught up on discrepancies, but I'm the one to blame
I need to learn how to pick my battles
When I'm going round in circles I should know what really matters
It's that he wakes me up from bad dreams
It's him by my side when I am tearing at the seems
It's the comfortable silence we both have when we don't speak
It's the whispers late at night in the dark when I can't sleep like a
Child, a child
I watch our love like it's a movie
No battered hearts just you and me
It makes me feel like a
Child, a child
Would you stay if only for a while
Could you stay if only for a while
Would you stay if only for a while
Could you stay if only for a while
Would you stay, for a
Child, a child
I watch our love like it's a movie
No battered hearts just you and me
It makes me feel like a
Child, a child
