I tried so hard, to be carefree
Rolling out of someone's bed into the sunshine
But the sun coming up
Doesn't always bring the light
And somehow I feel
It's just not right, not for me
Chorus:
It's been so long
Since I've been loved by name
Love me by name
Love me by name
Come on, come on, come on, come on
I feel afraid, I don't know why
You're surely not the first I've had
Who held me gently
Who took the sweet time to ask me about me
Well maybe this time, oh, God, let it be
Repeat Chorus
