If I was steady,
would you love me like you do?
If I was easy,
would I be enough for you?
And would you love me if I
never lost my nerve?
Would you love me like you do?
If I was lonely,
would you hold me in the night?
If I was tight, would you reach
out and turn out the light?
If I was angry, would you tell me I was right?
If I was wrong,
just to make me feel alright?
Would you tell me you were
there for me only?
Roll me around in your perfect skin
Would you tell me I need
never more be lonely
Close your eyes and keep on smiling
An d if I asked you
Would you tell to me your mind?
Would you show me all your sorrows?
Would you leave something behind?
And if I asked too much
Would you say everything was fine?
Would you lie sweet lies to be kind?
Sometimes life is harder than
the concrete and the clay
The back down hard beneath our feet
Oh, if life could be more sweet
I know that you know it too
Our love's unsteady, but it's true
If we ever fall, may we fall upon our feet
And if we falter,
let it be because it's real
Don't go killing me with kindness,
open wounds never heal
And if you love me,
don't protect me from anything you feel
Love me like you do
Love me like you do
Love me like you do
