How To Love
Justin Bieber Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You had a lot of crooks tryna steal your heart
Never really had luck, couldn't ever figure out
How to love, how to love
You had a lot of moments that didn't last forever
Now you in this corner tryna put it together
For a second you were here, now you over there
It's hard not to stare
The way you moving your body
Like you never had a love, never had a love
When you was just a young'un, you're looks were so precious
But now your grown up, so fly it's like a blessing
But you can't have a man look at you for 5 seconds
Without you being insecure
You never credit yourself, so when you got older
It's seems like you came back 10 times over
Now you're sitting here in this damn corner
Looking through all your thoughts and looking over your shoulder
See you had a lot of crooks tryna steal your heart
Never really had luck, couldn't ever figure out
How to love, how to love
See you had a lot of moments that didn't last forever
Now you in this corner tryna put it together
How to love, how to love
For a second you were here, why you over there?
Its hard not to stare the way you moving your body
Like you never had a love, had a love
You had a lot of dreams that transformed to visions
The fact that you saw the world affected all your decisions
But it wasn't your fault, wasn't in your intentions
To be the one here talking to me, be the one listenin'
But I admire your poppin' bottles and dippin'
Just as much as you admire bar tending and stripping
Baby, so don't be mad, nobody else trippin'
You see a lot of crooks and the crooks still crook
See you had a lot of crooks tryna steal your heart
Never really had luck, couldn't ever figure out
How to love, how to love
See you had a lot of moments that didn't last forever
Now you in this corner tryna put it together
How to love, how to love
Ooh, see I just want you to know that you deserve the best
You're beautiful, you're beautiful, yeah
And I want you to know, you're far from the usual
Far from the usual
You see you had a lot of crooks tryna steal your heart
Never really had luck, couldn't ever figure out
How to love, how to love
See you had a lot of moments that didn't last forever
Now you in this corner tryna put it together
How to love, how to love
See you had a lot of crooks tryna steal your heart
Never really had luck, couldn't ever figure out
How to love, how to love
See you had a lot of moments that didn't last forever
Now you in this corner tryna put it together
