I'm not asking you to be perfect
To be perfect

You meet my eyes across the room
How could anyone want anybody but you?
You return my smile across the room
How could anyone want anybody but you?

How long has this been going on?
How long have you been someone I lean on?
Well I don't want to do this anymore

What's it gonna be?
Are you ready to give an answer
Are you gonna give it a chance or...
What's it gonna be?
Do you reckon the risk is worth it?
I'm not asking you to be perfect

Everything you say sounds good to me
How do you make the hard things so easy?
And when you're here I don't know how to be
How do you make the hard things seem easy?

How long has this been going on?
How long have I been someone you lean on?
Well I don't want to do this anymore

What's it gonna be?
Are you ready to give an answer
Are you gonna give it a chance or...
What's it gonna be?
Do you reckon the risk is worth it?
I'm not asking you to be perfect
