Lyrics
Love’s gonna be tender
nothing else matters
I just wanna be free
I don’t want to hide anymore
Let’s act how we feel
I just want to live my own life
I just wanna be free
I don’t want to lie anymore
Spend more time apart
Don’t care about anybody
Just listen to your heart
I don’t want to cry anymore
I have no more tears
I just want you to stand by me
Just stay with me here
I don’t want to wait anymore
Let me be with you
I just want to do what I want
Let’s bring out the truth
