What they call love

Is just mother nature trying to have her way

Like a chemical inside your mind

It turns you deaf and dumb and blind so easily



When I care more than I care to know

I just play it down, so my fears don't show

How many times can I push them aside

I don't know



And here's to the fear

That blinded me all those years

And here's to the times

When I almost lost my mind



I take care of myself

I don't need no one else

But I love the way you say my name

So sweetly



I wonder should I trust in you

Or anyone, no matter who

You say you love me like a friend

Is this for real or just pretend, oh, no offense



And here's to the fear

That blinded me all those years

And here's to the times

When I almost lost my mind



I said to myself

I don't need no one else

But I love the way you say my name
