I'll never walk on water
But I won't let you drown
I'm not a knight in shining armor

Not your teacher, not your father
And I'm not your consolation prize.


So forgive me if I talk too much
Sometimes I go too far, I know,
But I'm not the kind to ever take it slow

Baby I told you way too soon
About the wreckage of my past
Said "I love you" way too fast

But I just needed you to know.

I'm not perfect

But I'm more than my mistakes
All my history is haunted
With these things I thought I wanted

I lost myself along the way.

So forgive me if I talk too much

Sometimes I go too far, I know,
But I'm not the kind to ever take it slow
Baby I told you way too soon

About the wreckage of my past
Said "I love you" way too fast
But I just needed you to know.


If you ever have to leave here
And there's nothing I can do

I won't beg and I won't plead here
I'll just be glad I got to be here
To breathe here, for a while with you.


So forgive me if I talk too much sometimes
Sometimes I go too far, I know,

But I'm not the kind to ever take it slow
Baby I told you way too soon
About the wreckage of my past

Said "I love you" way too fast
But I just needed you to know
