I am timid
And I am oversensitive
I am a lioness
I am tired and defensive
You take me in your arms
And I fold into you
I have insecurities
You show me I am beautifulLove me or leave me just take it or leave it
It's not that I'm needy just need you to see me
Take me, free me, see through to the core of me
Take me, free me, there will be no more pretendingI am temperamental
And I have imperfections
And I am emotional
I am unpredictable
I am naked
I am vulnerable
I am a woman
I am opening up to youLove me or leave me, just take it or leave it
It's not that I'm needy, just need you to see me
Take me, free me, see through to the core of me
Take me, free me, there will be no more pretendingNow I stand before you with my heart in my hands
I'm asking you to take me just the way that I amPlease lay down your arms
Do you know me?
Make me feel safe from harmOh just take me, free me, see through to the core of me
Take me, free me, there will be no more pretendingI am temperamental
And I have imperfections
And I am emotional
There'll be no more pretending
