Saving You from Me

You say you wanna get to know me... and baby, trust me, that’s more than cool
But, I don’t know if I’m ready to let you in, my heart’s telling me don’t make yourself into a fool
I’ve opened up before and thought I was ready to commit, but I’m still a little raw from my last relationship
I’m not that  picture perfect girl,  and I will never be your queen
It’s not because I don’t want to or because I never had that romantic dream
But, you have to assess the past and realize that some stuff is really as bad as it seems
I made some mistakes at another time and unfortunately, they play a part in my everything
And, I don’t want to hurt you or make you bare my heavy load
It may look like it’s too heavy for me, but with God’s help, it’s enough for me to hold
So, don’t worry about me, and please, don’t even try to wait
Before I let another man in... I have to handle what I’ve already stacked upon my plate
You will be the apple of anyone’s eye, the treasure amongst any smart woman’s  sea
I know it may seem like I’m running, but I’m  just saving you from me

(2014)
