Tenille Townes - As You Are Lyrics

I feel the weight of every brick you're laying down
You're locking doors and boarding windows
You're trying to shut me out again in self defense
'Cause you're haunted by the echoes

Of all the pain from your past
With every love that didn't last
Every time we get this close, I feel you pull back

So fire another arrow
I'm not gonna let go
I'll take you as you are
I'll take you as you are
I want to see your shadows
The colors you don't let show
I'll take you as you are
I'll take you as you are

You can trace it back to when you were a kid
It took a lot for you to say that
If you're not ready, you don't have to let me in
I'll still be here after the storm's passed

So fire another arrow
I'm not gonna let go
I'll take you as you are
I'll take you as you are
I want to see your shadows
The colors you don't let show
I'll take you as you are
I'll take you as you are

Fire another arrow
I'm not gonna let go
I'll take you as you are
I'll take you as you are
I want to see your shadows
The colors you don't let show
I'll take you as you are
I'll take you as you are

Of all the pain from your past
With every love that didn't last
Every time we get this close, I feel you pulling back
Every twist, every turn
I'm a bridge you'll never burn
I'm not gonna run even when it hurts

So fire another arrow
I'm not gonna let go
I'll take you as you are
I'll take you as you are
I want to see your shadows
The colors you don't let show
I'll take you as you are
I'll take you as you are
I'll take you as you are
