InterleavedOriginalTranslation

I’ve always been the one to doubt myselfI’ve always been the one to second-guess my worth,

Convinced I don’t deserve a “someone else”convinced that I’m unworthy of finding ‘the one’.

So now that I’m with you, it’s true, I’m scaredNow that I’m by your side, the truth is I’m terrified,

I fear I’m not enough to show you carefearing I’m simply not enough to warrant your affection.

Love gives me a habit of pushing overLove has a way of making me constantly yield,

I could never really fight backand I’ve never found the strength to push back.

Wanna be the man you helped me discoverI want to become the man you’ve helped me see in myself,

But you need to keep me intactbut I need you to keep me from falling apart.

As much as you’re my lightEven though you’re the light that guides me,

We always fuss and fightwe always seem to find ourselves at odds.

I wish you’d just believe in meI only wish you’d finally put your trust in me

So we can surviveso we can find a way to make this work.

To keep you in my lifeTo ensure that you stay in my world,

I need you to confide in me, ohI need you to open up and trust me, oh.

Honour, honour, honour, honourRespect me, cherish me, value me, honor me,

Honour, honour mejust show me that you honor me.

Find it in your heart to try and please just honour meLook deep within your heart and find a way to just honor me,

‘Cause there ain’t a replay or a playbackbecause we don’t get a second chance or a rewind.

Only got this time and don’t you ever doubt thatWe’ve only got this fleeting moment, so don’t you ever question that,

With all of your respectwrapped in all the respect you have to give.

So we don’t forgetSo we never let the weight of this fade,

Honour, honourValue me, honor me,

Honour, oh, ohhonor me, oh, oh.

The secret is you know my deepest thoughtsThe truth is that you’ve seen my most guarded thoughts,

So maybe, in return, let down your guardso perhaps, in exchange, you could lower your own defenses.

I’m not asking you to lose the shape of your heartI’m not asking you to change who you fundamentally are,

I’m showing you we’re worth not falling apartI’m just showing you that we’re worth keeping together.

Love gives me a habit of pushing overLove has a way of making me constantly yield,

I could never really fight backand I’ve never found the strength to push back.
