[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, I know, I know that
I like to pretend
And hold back, hold back
These words I should've said
Too caught up, caught up
My time be better spent
With you like at first it was
[Chorus]
When I found somebody, you made me whole now
Love can be bloody, but we held our own ground
So leave on a light, I'm alright
I just want things the same as before, yeah
If nothing is perfect, then come be imperfect with me
[Verse]
Ayy, just like we used to, just like we usеd to
Spend my paycheck in a weekend
I blеw through, scared I would lose you
I remember when we first kissed that night
Had my eyes closed (My eyes)
Like, if I'm jumping off the edge, keep my eyes closed, yeah
Hangin' by thread, I was all in
But shit won't ever work unless you all in
Losin' my control, finna break down
I guess that's why they call in love falling
'Cause there's no such thing as easy life
When shit go wrong, pray you lead me right
And it gon' hurt but I'll be beside, be beside you, yeah
Then she said
[Pre-Chorus]
I know, I know that
I like to pretend
And hold back, hold back (Hold back)
These words I should've said
Too caught up, caught up
My time be better spent
With you like at first it was
[Chorus]
When I found somebody, you made me whole now
Love can be bloody, but we held our own ground
So leave on a light, I'm alright
I just want things the same as before, yeah
If nothing is perfect, then come be imperfect with me
[Bridge]
Yeah, I've been fallin' in your grace, help to lead you in my arms
I don't wanna be afraid, should've told you from the start
That I'm all in (I'm all in)
Yeah, so come as you are, stretch out your hands
There's no more doubt
[Chorus]
That I found somebody, you made me whole now
Love can be bloody, but we held our own ground
Just leave on a light, I'm alright
I just want things the same as before
If nothing is perfect, then come be imperfect with me
