I know loving me ain't easy

The road we're on ain't always kind

Got the strength to up and leave me

I know I promised to stop calling
And give you time to find yourself
But baby, I already found you
Just wanna be around you, no one else

To need me just like I need you
Gonna win the Heisman, baby

I'm like a running back, running with a half stack
I'd do anything if you said you're coming home

If you need time, take your sweet time

But make it quick 'cause I need you on the front

On to the real true love that you are

Where I went wrong

I'm just tryna talk to you (I'm just trying to hold)
Can't you see I'm just tryna talk to you?
(On to the real true love that you are)
Yeah, I-I've been trying to see, see somehow
Where I went wrong

I'm just tryna talk to you
Can't you see I'm just tryna talk to you?
(Love that you are)
