lyrics

Lyrics:

You came along
and I knew what I was getting myself into
Everyone said be careful, don’t dive too deep
Maybe I’m sick and tired
of the distance I’ve been through
Maybe I’m stupid for thinking
you might be with me

Aiyee, don’t make me vie for love
Aiyee, don’t make me show you
it’s something that I’m not above

Humble, humility, patience, compassion,
all ring true
I fell in your arms and I swear
I will not be the same
Hunger and holes need feeding and filling
it’s not new
But I can’t compete with the history
your heart cannot tame

Aiyee, don’t make me vie for love
Aiyee, don’t make me show you
it’s something that I’m not above

You want to stay with her
but all your thoughts are with me
You don’t want to kiss her
but not really sure what that means
You know that you’ll miss her
and all that you have if you leave
You say wait and see

Aiyee, don’t make me vie for love
Aiyee, I know there’s more than enough
Aiyee, don’t make me vie for love
Aiyee, don’t make me show you
it’s something that I’m not above
