I wear my heart on my sleeve
But not for show
And I find it hard not to leave
And let go
I don't know when to bite my tongue
The words just kinda flow
And I suppose I'm only young
I've got room to grow

I'll cut to the chase
I'm finding my feet
In this rat race
I'm just trying to succeed

I'm gonna throw caution to the wind
I'm gonna stand alone (with my heart, with my heart)
And come hell or high water
I wanna stay afloat (with my heart, with my heart)
I'm gonna go the extra mile
This time (with my heart, with my heart)
I'm gonna throw caution to the wind
I'm gonna stand alone
I'm gonna stand alone

Getting to know the ropes
Learning on the job
And leaving with these high hopes
It's hard not to stop
And if you lend me your ear
I swear
You won't have to knock on wood
Don't despair

I'll cut to the chase
I'm finding my feet
In this rat race
I'm just trying to succeed

I'm gonna throw caution to the wind
I'm gonna stand alone (with my heart, with my heart)
And come hell or high water
I wanna stay afloat (with my heart, with my heart)
I'm gonna go the extra mile
This time (with my heart, with my heart)
I'm gonna throw caution to the wind
I'm gonna stand alone (with my heart, with my heart)
I'm gonna stand alone (with my heart, with my heart)
I'm gonna stand alone

Finally I'm where I want to be,
I didn't think this life was gonna be for me
A love you gave me to discover was right here
But now I'm caught up in a dream, don't wanna leave!

See I ain't been one for wishing not at all
When you least expect it's creepin' up on you
No confiding or abiding to no rules
And now I'm content knowing that I'm here with you

Right here, you got me where you want me
Now I'm right here, waiting for your calling
Now I'm right here, you got me where you want me
Now I'm right here, right here!

Oh oh oh, ah ah ah
Oh oh oh, ah ah ah
Oh oh oh, ah ah ah
Oh oh oh

Infatuation took a whole of my mind,
I wouldn't change it for the world, now that you're mine
You played me hard to get for a while
Still cut me deeper every day with your smile!

See I ain't been one for wishing not at all
When you least expect it's creepin' up on you
No confiding or abiding to no rules
And now I'm content knowing that I'm here with you

Right here, you got me where you want me
Now I'm right here, waiting for your calling
Now I'm right here, you got me where you want me
Now I'm right here, right here!

Oh oh oh, ah ah ah
Oh oh oh, ah ah ah
Oh oh oh, ah ah ah
Oh oh oh

Finally I'm content
Oh yes, I've found that thing
Right here is where I'll stay
But I'm not complacent
Finally I'm content
Oh yes, I've found that thing
Right here is where I'd stay
But I'm not complaining

Right here, you got me where you want me
Now I'm right here, right here
Oh oh oh, ah ah ah
Oh oh oh, ah ah ah

Right here, you got me where you want me
Now I'm right here, waiting for your calling
Now I'm right here, you got me where you want me
Now I'm right here, right here! (Oh!)

Right here, you got me where you want me
Now I'm right here, waiting for your calling
Now I'm right here, you got me where you want me
Now I'm right here, right here!

Oh oh oh, ah ah ah
Oh oh oh, ah ah ah
Oh oh oh, ah ah ah
Oh oh oh, ah ah ah

I could play any game for you
I could say what you want me to
I could lie, I could lie
'Cause you're wanting a little more
And I'm stuck in the middle of, boy
But I try, but I try
And I need time, and I need space
I need to live without your face

But if I go will you love me?
Will you love me until I can
Do you know will you want me?
Will you want me like that?
And if I leave, will it end?
Will you need me again?
If I go, will you love me?
Will you love me when I come back?

I could be what you want me to
Can you hold out and let me do what I want?
What I want?
Tell me how long could you wait till you move on
And tell me that it's too late! It's too late!

But if I go will you love me?
Will you love me until I can
Do you know will you want me?
Will you want me like that?
And if I leave, will it end?
Will you need me again?
If I go, will you love me?
Will you love me when I come back?

Ooh, boy
(When I comeback)
Will you love love
Noooo ooh oh oh
(When I comeback)

But if I go will you love me?
Will you love me until I can
Do you know will you want me?
Will you want me like that?
And if I leave, will it end?
Will you need me again?
If I go, will you love me?
Will you love me when I come back?
