I spent my life trying to avoid it
 
 I always said it was wrong for me
 
 A sign of weakness that's how I saw it
 
 And weak was something I didn't want to be
 
 It wasn't love I was runnin from
 
 I was just afraid to need someone
 
 Now it feels so good to feel
 
 The need to trust somebody and open up my heart
 
 The need to share my secrets down to the deepest part
 
 I can give, I can take,
 
 Now it's okay to say
 
 That sometimes I feel weak
 
 When you're the reason for the need
 
  
  You had the strength to cry on my shoulder
 
 You weren't ashamed to lean on me
 
 The honesty kept drawing us closer
 
 And I saw how easy reaching out could be
 
 You showed me love's not about control
 
 Holding on to you is how I let go
 
 And it feels so good to feel
 
 The need to trust somebody and open up my heart
 
 The need to share my secrets down to the deepest part
 
 I can give, I can take,
 
 Now it's okay to say
 
 That sometimes I feel weak
 
 When you're the reason for
 
 The need to trust somebody and open up my heart
 
 The need to share my secrets down to the deepest part
 
 I can give, I can take,
 
 Now it's okay to say
 
 That sometimes I feel weak
 
 When you're the reason for
 
 The reason for
 
 The need
