[Verse 1] He knew just how to make me laugh Before he knew the rest of me A couple weeks, a little magic And I'm seeing what we could be I love the rush of something new The way it takes away my doubt I'm already falling deeper Before I've figured someone out [Pre-Chorus] I always think I've found the one Until the little things go wrong I see the signs, but close my eyes And hold on twice as long [Chorus] What is it about love That takes over my whole life? I keep chasing that first feeling Thinking this one might be right Such a good start, such a bad end Another wrong man, another goodbye Why do I keep losing myself Just to feel that rush one more time? I need to know who I'm looking for Not just who makes me feel alive [Verse 2] Some were kind, some were careless Some just never felt like home But I kept trying to make it work Afraid of ending up alone I asked myself if they could love me Never if they were right for me Got so caught up in being wanted I forgot what I really need [Pre-Chorus] And I don't wanna lose the part Of me that loves so deep But I can't keep confusing What I want with what I need [Chorus] What is it about love That takes over my whole life? I keep chasing that first feeling Thinking this one might be right Such a good start, such a bad end Another wrong man, another goodbye Why do I keep losing myself Just to feel that rush one more time? I need to know who I'm looking for Not just who makes me feel alive [Bridge] Maybe I should take it slower Let the feeling settle down Learn to see what's really there Before I let my heart run wild What makes me happy, what feels right? What can I give, what do I need? Can I love somebody fully And still hold on to me? I don't need another perfect start If it leaves me torn apart I need someone who makes sense To my mind as well as my heart [Final Chorus] What is it about love That I've let it run my life? I kept chasing every feeling Never asking if it's right All those good starts, all those bad ends All those tears I tried to hide Maybe love was never the problem Maybe I forgot my own side I wanna know who I'm looking for And what I need to feel alright I can listen to my heart Without letting it decide [Outro] I still believe there's love for me But I don't have to chase it blind Next time someone takes my heart I'm bringing along my mind I'm bringing along my mind… [End]
