"Love Me That Way" lyrics

Lovesick, living with the pain
I'm still here waiting in vain
It's hard to leave, but harder to stay
Oh I wish you'd love me that way

We met, at such a young age
I thought, nothing would change
But let's chalk it up, to our growing pains
The fear of what's next, and dumb youthful rage

Lovesick, living with the pain
I'm still here waiting in vain
It's hard to leave, but harder to stay
Oh I wish you'd love me that, love me that way

Sadness starts to rise when the leaves start to fall
I say I moved on but it's not true at all
Sometimes I still read the letters you wrote
Reminds me of days when I thought we'd grow old

Lovesick, living with the pain
I'm still here waiting in vain
It's hard to leave, but harder to stay
Oh I wish you'd love me that, love me that

Way you lit up, when you talked about Jesus
The way that you told me I'm what you needed
But I still hold hope that I'll see you again
Somehow or someway, but until then

I'll be lovesick, living with the pain
Yeah I thought you felt the same
It's hard to leave, but harder to stay
Oh I wish you'd love me that, love me that way
You'd love me that way
