I get defensive and insecure
My own worst critic
Behind a closing door
I'm fragile and fractured, that's for sure

I burned myself down to the ground
Oh, can I ask of you
To treat me soft and tender
Love me hard and true

Keep my heart from building walls
So high you can't get through
Treat me soft and tender

Oh, can you love me like?
Can you love me like?
Can you love me like that?

Oh, can you love me like?
Can you love me like?
Can you love me like that?

I'll just keep repeating it
In case you didn't catch me

Oh, can you love me like?
Can you love me like?
Can you love me like that?
Can you love me like that?

You see the world in colors
I see in black and white
Paint me a picture
Out of the lines that
I live in all of the time

Treat me soft and tender
And love me hard and true

I burned myself down to the ground
Oh, can I ask of you to treat me
Soft and tender

Oh, can you love me like?
Can you love me like?
Can you love me like that?

Oh, can you love me like?
Can you love me like?
Can you love me like that?

I just keep repeating it
In case you didn't catch me

Oh, can you love me like?
Can you love me like?
Can you love me like that?

Sunshine left today
Got caught in the rain all alone
Can you come and pick me up
From my blues or am I late to ask you
Love me soft and tender

Oh, can you love me like?
Can you love me like?
Can you love me like that?

Oh, can you love me like?
Can you love me like?
Can you love me like that?

I just keep repeating it
In case you didn't catch me

Oh, can you love me like?
Can you love me like?
Can you love me like that?

Oh, can you love me like?
Can you love me like?
Can you love me like that?

Oh, can you love me like?
Can you love me like?
Can you love me like that?

I just keep repeating it
In case you didn't catch me

Oh, can you love me like?
Can you love me like?
Can you love me like that?
