I still remember that first message on my screen
You laid it on the line and told me what it means
You asked me to be yours, though you were going away
And even through the distance, I promised I would stay
I felt a sudden spark that I had never known before
A deep and real connection that leaves me wanting more
ChorusI know you carry trauma and a heavy load of pain
Left out in the cold by girls who only played a game
But Tyler, I’m not them, and I am standing right here
Just give me half a chance to wipe away the fear
When you wrap me in your arms, my stubborn heart just melts
This love is true and solid, unlike anything you've felt
Verse 2I know you’re strong-minded, and a little stubborn too
Building up a fortress to protect the heart in you
But underneath that armor, you’re tender and you care
You’ve got a loving soul that's incredibly rare
I know you're scared to fall, I can see it in your eyes
But I'm not gonna feed you empty promises or lies
ChorusI know you carry trauma and a heavy load of pain
Left out in the cold by girls who only played a game
But Tyler, I’m not them, and I am standing right here
Just give me half a chance to wipe away the fear
When you wrap me in your arms, my stubborn heart just melts
This love is true and solid, unlike anything you've felt
BridgeEvery time I hear your voice, it settles down my soul
Every time I see your face, I finally feel whole
I know the past has hurt you, but I'm not going anywhere
Let me be the one to show you how it feels to have someone who's there
Final Chorus'Cause I know you carry trauma and a heavy load of pain
Left out in the cold by girls who only played a game
But Tyler, I’m not them, and I am standing right here
Just let me be the one to wipe away the fear
When you wrap me in your arms, my whole world melts
This love is true and solid, unlike anything you've felt
Yeah, my feelings for you, Tyler, they are true and solid
And I'm not going anywhere.
