Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I wasn't trying
I wasn't trying to meet anyone
I wasn't dying
I wasn't dying to get heartbroken
Take my breath away
Made me feel safe
Made me escape
Made me wanna cave
I wasn't trying
I wasn't trying to love from the start
[Chorus]
If a love can't make you
Break you, shape you
Then what's love?
Oh, ooh
If a love can't make you
Break you, shape you
Then what's love?
Oh, ooh
[Verse 2]
I was just playing
I was just playing the game till you won
I'm not the same
I'm not the same and I don't wish I was
Knocked me off my feet
Felt incomplete
Caught me off guard
Hands on my knees
I was just playing
I was just playing the game till you won
[Chorus]
If a love can't make you
Break you, shape you
Then what's love?
Oh, ooh
If a love can't make you
Break you, shape you
Then what's love?
Oh, ooh
[Bridge]
Tell me, is it dangerous that you're my safety?
Tell me, is it bad that I'm letting you change me?
'Cause I didn't want to have someone that I need
But if this isn't love, can you tell me what love means?
[Outro]
Tell me what love means
