Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I never thought that you would be the one to hold my heart

But you came around and you knocked me off the ground from the start

[Verse 2]

You put your arms around me

And I believe that it's easier for you to let me go

You put your arms around me and I'm home

[Verse 3]

How many times will you let me change my mind and turn around

I can't decide if I'll let you save my life, or if I'll drown

[Verse 4]

I hope that you see right through my walls

I hope that you catch me 'cause I'm already falling

I'll never let a love get so close

You put your arms around me and I'm home

[Verse 5]

The world is coming down on me, and I can't find a reason to be loved

I never wanna leave you, but I can't make you bleed if I'm alone

[Verse 6]

You put your arms around me

And I believe that it's easier for you to let me go

I hope that you see right through my walls

I hope that you catch me 'cause I'm already falling

I'll never let a love get so close

You put your arms around me and I'm home

[Verse 7]

I tried my best to never let you in to see the truth

And I've never opened up, I've never truly loved till you

Put your arms around me

And I believe that it's easier for you to let me go

[Verse 8]

I hope that you see right through my walls

I hope that you catch me 'cause I'm already falling

I'll never let a love get so close

You put your arms around me and I'm home

You put your arms around me and I'm home
