The Trouble With Love

Ooooh Mmmmm I let your words turn into lullabies Covered my eyes when I should've seen through the lies You gave me love, but you gave me chains Taught me to dance in the middle of pain Smiling through the bruises, I ignored the signs Said"This is love" when I should've drawn the line Built a house out of heartbreak, no keys to the door But I kept coming back, always asking for more And the trouble with love is it's blind, it's cruel It lifts you up just to make you a fool You hold on tight, even when it's not true The trouble with love is it changes you It'll break you, it'll take you Make you forget all the scars you've been through It'll save you, but betray you Make you an addict and say it's what's true The trouble with love, the trouble with love It's fire and rain, but never enough I saw the red flags waving in the breeze But I let you pull me under, too weak to leave Gave you my heart, let you tear it apart Made excuses for the damage, called it a fresh start Days turned to months, I lost who I was Chasing the ghost of who I thought you were I stayed for the highs, but I died in the lows Tangled in love that just wouldn't let go And the trouble with love is it's blind, it's cruel It lifts you up just to make you a fool You hold on tight, even when it's not true The trouble with love is it changes you It'll break you, it'll take you Make you forget all the scars you've been through It'll save you, but betray you Make you an addict and say it's what's true The trouble with love, the trouble with love It's fire and rain, but never enough We dress it up, we call it fate But sometimes love's just a masquerade We lose ourselves trying to fix what's wrong Forgetting that love should make us strong It'll break you, it'll take you Make you forget all the scars you've been through It'll save you, but betray you Make you an addict and say it's what's true The trouble with love, the trouble with love It's fire and rain, but never enough Ohhhhhhh, hmmmmmm
