"Tender" lyrics

Maybe I could be the person to catch you on the other side
That's gonna hold you for life
Or maybe I could be the reason that your eyes are crying dry
'Cause I can't treat you right

'Cause what if life happens?
It ain't as good as it was
'Cause the girl that used to be me, when I look back now
Don't know who it was

I love you right now, but will I love you forever?
Forever
My heart beats so loud but my mind is still tender
Still tender

Maybe all our good intentions will just wash over us
'Cause we got caught in the rush
Guess you never see it coming when the light switches off
And you're lying in the rough

'Cause sometimes life happens
It ain't as good as it was
'Cause the girl that used to be me got her head down now
Don't know who to trust

I love you right now, but will I love you forever?
Forever
My heart beats so loud but my mind is still tender
Still tender
I know I made a promise but I'm just being honest
'Cause the nights got too long
I couldn't stand to be alone
I love you right now, but will I love you forever?
Forever

Give me time, give me time
Give me time, give me time
'Cause the girl that I'm gonna be in the white dress one day will know what she wants
Give me time, give me time
Give me time, give me time
'Cause the girl that I'm gonna be in the white dress one day will know who she loves

I love you right now, but will I love you forever?
Forever
My heart beats so loud but my mind is still tender
Still tender
I know I made a promise but I'm just being honest
'Cause the nights got too long
I couldn't stand to be alone
I love you right now, but will I love you forever?
Forever
