Sam Salter-Love Again

[Spoken]
Now this girl could have easily been
just another girl in da black book
but what i loved about her most is that
she genuinly loved me for who i am
i mean i gave her all my love
but no matter how much i gave
she never asked for more than i could give
and i think thats what made me wanna take another chance on love

Now I can write a song about falling in love
But I can't seem to find to find myself
So many times I wanted to say that u take my breath away
And I bathe in the past I won't let go
But there's something u need to know

Chorus
I just wanna love again
I'm sick and tired of tryin' to pretend
That I don't need love again
Cuz it hurts too much without love
I just wanna feel again
What it feels like to be in love
So I'm gonna let u in
And take another chance on love

Now I can be a million miles away
I'm own out desperate out lost in outer space
No matter how hard I fight it
I try to run away
Love tracks me down and grabs ahold
And sometimes just won't let go

Chorus
I just wanna love again
I'm sick and tired of tryin' to pretend
That I don't need love again
Cuz it hurts too much without love
I just wanna feel again
What it feels like to be in love
So I'm gonna let u in
And take another chance on love
on love on love o-o-on love
and take another chance...

You are the wind beneath my wings
You are my soul my everything
You are the reason why I keep on trying
to fall in love one more time
Giving my heart my all to you
Baby there's nothing I wont do for your love
Won't do for your touch

Chorus
I just wanna love again
I'm sick and tired of tryin' to pretend
That I don't need love again
Cuz it hurts too much without love
I just wanna feel again
What it feels like to be in love
So I'm gonna let u in
And take another chance on love




on love... o-o-o-on love
and take another chance on love
