Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I want you as you are, not as you oughta be
Won't you lay down your guard and come to me?
The shame that grips you now is crippling
It breaks my heart to see you suffering
[Verse 2]
'Cause I am for you
I'm not against you
[Verse 3]
If you wanna know how far my love can go
Just how deep, just how wide
If you wanna see how much you mean to me
Look at my hands, look at my side
If you could count the times I say you are forgiven
It's more than the drops in the ocean
[Verse 4]
Ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh
[Verse 5]
Don't think you need to settle for a substitute
When I'm the only love that changes you
[Verse 6]
And I am for you (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
I'm not against you (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
I am for you (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
I'm not against you
[Verse 7]
If you wanna know how far my love can go
Just how deep, just how wide
If you wanna see how much you mean to me
Look at my hands, look at my side
If you could count the times I say you are forgiven
It's more than the drops in the ocean
[Verse 8]
Ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh
(Drops in the ocean)
[Verse 9]
Open your heart, it's time that we start again
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)
Open your heart, it's time that we start again
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)
[Verse 10]
If you wanna know how far my love can go
Just how deep, just how wide (Just how wide)
If you wanna see how much you mean to me
Look at my hands, look at my side (Just look at my side)
If you could count the times I say you are forgiven
It's more than the drops in the ocean
[Verse 11]
Ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh
The drops in the ocean (Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh)
Ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh (Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh)
[Verse 12]
I am for you (Ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh, ooh-ooh) I'm not against you
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)
I am for you (Ooh, ooh-ooh)
(Ooh, ooh-ooh) I'm not against you
Woo
