E
Well, I've been searching for something true
My heart says it must be you
I'd love to fall and see it through
But only if you told me to

Well, I'd run through the desert,
I'd walk through the rain
Get you into trouble and take all the blame
I'd paint you a picture, write you a song
And I'd do it all over if I did it all wrong

Chorus:
              C#m        G#m
I don't wanna steal you away,
    A                                     B
or make you change the things that you believe
              C#m                G#m
I just wanna drink from the words you say,
       A               B
and be everything you need
              F#m                   A
Yeah, I could be so good at loving you but,
             B       E
only if you told me to

I've seen a lot of good love go to waste
And I don't wanna look back on these days
Knowing all the things you'd never know
If I never said a word and let you go

Chorus - x2

Maybe this is something I'll never be
But I'll be right here till you tell me
