Make believe that nothings wrong
Holding back and bottled up so long
Giving in to compromise
Desperation's hollowed out inside
I'll need some time to figure out and face my fear
I'll need some space to grow along beside you dear
Part of me won't let things go
Other times it's easier I know
Face the music even when
It's not the song we sang when we began
I'm melting down and all need to know is if you're there
I need you now and I could never say I'm scared
Two steps at a time might seem as backwards but its fine
Just need you to know that I will be here for you
Once upon a time we let our guard down and we slide
Into something comforting and not so perfect
Why don't we just take it slow
Pace ourselves try not to worry
All these special feelings won't
Fall apart dear there's no hurry
When I've put all my trust in you because I can
Just take this chance to open up and grab my hand
Two steps at a time might seem backwards but its fine
Just need you to know that I will be here for you
Once upon a time we let our guard down and we slide
Into something comforting and not so perfect
When I've put all my trust in you because I can
Just take this chance to open up and grab my hand
