Vulnerable

Lost in your embrace
And the world just disappears
But fear soon sets in
The pathway is anything but clear

Paranoid and vulnerable
Scared and insecure
I'm with you now, but for how long?
My healing hearts still sore

This mind, it has been played
And this naive heart was used
I never thought Id cry like that
I never thought Id lose

It hurt so much to watch her cry
To watch her dreams fall down
That girl in the mirror, torn, in despair
Trying to pick herself off the ground

So don't let time repeat itself
Or let my fragile soul get burnt
Don't want to get close, but I'm not close enough
My lesson is anything but learned

I tried to keep myself away
I wanted to stay strong
To swear off love altogether
But I somehow got it wrong

So when you're near, come closer
When you speak, just tell the truth
Hold my heart forever
And remember, I love you
