Good Men

I knew your heart was scared to love,

I saw the pieces he had left behind.

You told me you were learning how

To trust somebody one more time.

So I never asked you to forget,

Never asked you to heal for me.

I just wanted to show you

That love could still be something you believe.

I wasn't trying to save you,

I wasn't trying to be your cure.

I just wanted you to know

That not every heart will hurt you anymore.

I showed you there are still good men,

There are still hearts that love for real.

People who don't come with an agenda,

People who don't make you beg to feel.

I showed you you could be yourself,

With every scar you tried to hide.

And someone could still choose you,

And love you right.

There are still good men in this world,

Who don't love just to possess.

Who give their all without expecting Anything in return,

nothing less. I would've loved you at your worst,

And never asked you to be someone else. (ooh-ooh)

I came when you were feeling sick,

I stayed when you were falling apart.

I didn't need a perfect version,

I just wanted your honest heart.

I gave you pieces of my life,

Not because I wanted you to owe me.

I gave them because when I loved you,

Giving was the only thing I knew.

And that's the part I can't understand...

After everything he left inside you,

After all the nights you couldn't sleep,

After he made you question love,

After he made you scared to believe...

You went back.

Back to the place

Where your heart learned how to break.

And I was right here,

Trying to show you That love didn't have to feel that way.

I wasn't perfect...

But I was honest.

I wasn't your savior...

I was just a man

Who wanted to love you

Without hurting you.

So maybe someday, When you're finally healed...

You'll look back

and remember

There was

someone who

never wanted anything from you Except the chance to

love you honestly. And maybe then you'll believe me...

There are still good men. I

just wasn't

the one You were ready to love.
