BUT FIRST

My darling I'll love you
but first I have to like you
I want to come see you
but first I must save my pride
I want to hold you
but first I need to be held
I want to have you
but first I have to stop needing you
I want to laugh
but first I have to stop the tears
I want to be with you
but first I have to trust you
I'll give you the chance to love me and give me the world
but first you have to stop the excuses and tell me the truth
