【歌词】
Give me half the chance I’ll make you understand
That what I got to give Is so much more than this
Than you'll ever know I don’t say what’s on my mind
But you’ll find this out in time
Don’t always open up
I’m not quick to trust
And let someone inside
I’ve got a lot to learn
Never felt this way before
But I gotta say what’s right for me
You should know that I can
Be more than you will ever need
I’ll show you something new to see, yeah
I’ll be the one you can believe I’ll be one better,
Yeah I’ll be one betterYou’ve seen some falling stars
You felt a broken heart Time is all it takes
Learn from my mistakesKnow exactly what you are
But I can’t hang on the side
I’ve had enough of all these fights
Gotta give to you
Gotta get this through
Till you realize I’ve got a lot to learn
Never felt this way before
But I gotta say what’s right for me
You should know that I can
Be more than you will ever need
I’ll show you something new to see (yeah)
I’ll be the one you can believeI’ll be one better, Yeah
I won’t back down (No never, No never)
You don’t have to be alone Girl, Alone (Oooh, Ooh) No (Oh）
