4 U
Lucys Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Got a messy heart that seems
To want a lot
And you're not the one
But you got me intertwined
When you′re not around
Could this be love? I doubt it
But I'll take my chance with you
And if it happens to be true
Then I′ll go along with you
If you promise to be true
Then I′ll write this song for you
For you
I think I found love
And it's not like you′d...
Expect love to be like
But I could be wrong
Because this has me down
On my hands and knees for you
Could this be love? I doubt it
But I'll take my chance with you
And you know you′ve thought about it
And if it happens to be true
Then I'll go along with you
If you promise to be true
Then I′ll write this song for you
For you
Then I'll go along with you
If you promise to be true
Then I'll write this song for you
For you
