Verse 1:
Sometimes love comes for free
And other times you pay the price
I thought I knew what it meant
I watched you walk away
Countless ways I felt the pain
Of having you and letting go
I thought that I could handle it
I thought that I was strong
And now I feel that it's too late
Your trust no longer has a place
In my heart it's obvious what I must do cuz
It hurts to know the truth
Hook:
Now I'm here and you want me to stay
But I'm not sure how long that it would take
For all my tears to dry away
I was only here for love
Verse 2:
How can I go through with this?
Should I stay forever and be forgiving?
Can I keep my self-respect?
And try work it out with you?
We have both been back and forth
We have often both destroyed each other
Maybe I should let this go and never bring it up again
Cuz
Even if it seems to late
Maybe trust can find a way
If true love can handle this then
Maybe I should stay
Hook:
Now I'm here and you want me to stay
But I'm not sure how long that it would take
For all my tears to dry away
I was only here for love
