Hopeless Romantic (i'm the former)

i've never been good at love and that comes to no surprise
it's never been one of my talents to compromise
it feels like everyday i take another step
farther away

i'm over sensitive if that's hard to believe
and have a problem of wearing my heart on my sleeve
my thoughts i like to guard like their fort knox
but i'm working on that

teach me to fly, i want to soar
teach me to see things like i never have before
teach me to love like i've got nothing else
to give you my heart, to give you myself

everyday without you is just another in the dark
my heart 's a fire ready to burn all it needs is its spark

teach me to fly, i want to soar
teach me to see things like i never have before
teach me to love like i've got nothing else
to give you my heart, to give you myself

teach me to fly
teach me to love
