Got This Far Lyrics

I don't think I ever wanted to take your time

I don't think it ever crossed my mind
That you would be more to me than just a lover
'Cause I was doing fine on my own
Wasn't really lonely, just alone
But at least I knew where I was and what
I wanted, but now
I don't know how you got me, babe

So open wide
And I don't know how to tell you, babe
The way it feels inside
I know I have a feeling that you
You could hold me longer
We get stronger every day
And I don't know what you've done to me

I'm so turned around I can barely see
The way that I'm supposed to be
I'm so wrapped up in what I think you think of me
I don't know how you got this far
How am I supposed to live a life?
Burdened by the thought of you, my love
How will I ever be all right?
La la la
Every time I look into your eyes

I can feel the pressure start to rise
Pulling me into you and what you'll show me
Well, I believe that love can conquer all
But is it really love that makes you fall
Or just the fantasy of understanding?
I don't know how you're gonna save the rest of my heart

I don't know how I'd stop you, baby, or how I'd even start
I know I have a feeling that you
Are something to discover
The lover that you are
And I don't know how you got through
I'm not the kind of girl you're supposed to get to
I've been hurt before; I don't want it anymore
I'm safer in my solitude
I don't know how you got this far

How am I supposed to live a life
Burdened by the thought of you, my love?
How will I ever be all right?
La la la
I don't know how you got through

But, just like a child, I run to you
And I don't know what else to say
Nobody soothes me the way that you do
