In This Life

I was nurtured I was sheltered
I was curious and young
I was searching for that something
Trying to find it on the run
Oh and just when I stopped looking
I saw just how far I’d come
In this life
In this life

You give me love
You give me light
Show me everything that’s been happening
I’ve opened up my eyes
Following
Three steps fight an honest fight
Two hearts that can start a fire
One love is all I need
In this life

I have faltered I have stumbled
I have found my feet again
I’ve been angry I’ve been shaken
Found a new place to begin
My persistence to make a difference
Has led me safe into your hands
In this life
In this life

Chorus

I was put here for a reason
I was born into this world
And I’m living I’m believing
I was meant to be your girl
In this life

Chorus

Tell me your thoughts now baby
Tell me what’s on your mind
Tell me what’s eating you alive
Tell me your darkest secrets
Clear up those stupid lies
Show me what’s there behind those eyes

I want to know ’cause I can’t face another day here in the dark
I’m tired of wondering when we’re together baby where you are
Why should I give you everything
When you will only break my heart
You will only break my heart
You will only break my heart

Tell me your thoughts now baby
Tell me what’s on your mind
Tell me what’s eating you alive
Tell me your latest story
What will it be this time
Show me what’s there behind those eyes

I want to know why you can’t find a way to just let down your guard
I don’t believe that love or what we had should ever be this hard
Why should I give you everything
When you will only break my heart
You will only break my heart
You will only break my heart

All this is too familiar
I think we’ve been here before
I wish I could believe you
I see you down on your knees

You will only break my heart
You will only break my heart
You will only break my heart
