V1: I know that you just can’t seem to let go
I know you’re scared and that you have lost hope
But I will not hurt you, my intentions are pure
But you keep on running, you’re only just hurting yourself
V2: I know they broke you, made you insecure
But I know the real you, all else I don’t care
I know you fear that I’m one in the same
How can I show you? Why won’t you let me take your worries away?
Chorus: Don’t deny me
When I’m all that you have ever wanted
Don’t stop trying
When you can’t get me out of your mind
Don’t keep on pushing
I’m afraid I’m gonna leave this time
Don’t keep running
V3: I know we’ve been scared in this place before
I know it’s hard to forget when you’re torn
But I know what we have is more than they gave
And I know my heart, and so I pray
You’ll be brave for me – look back no longer
Bridge/Outro: Don’t keep lying to stop from trying
Don’t keep lying to stop from falling for me
Don’t
Never opened myself this way
Love is ours, we’ll live it our way
Don’t, and nothing else
Don’t, and nothing else
Don’t, and nothing else matters
