21st Century Love Song

When I was younger, I took notes from the greats
Men like Presley, Sinatra and even George Strait
But the truth is I just don't know how to love like they do
But I guess neither do you
So I was wondering if maybe we could just sit and talk
About all we've been given and all that we've lost
I'll tell you how I'm so scared
Cause I know I'm not even a little prepared
And then I'll just listen while you tell me all about all your dreams
You're certain will not come true
And in that forlorn look in your beautiful eyes
I could start to fall in love with you

But I don't wanna think about the past
Cause I don't want to think this might not last
We both know we try to have hope
But the doubt's never truly gone
I just wanna know who you really are
What makes you fall in love, what makes you fall apart
Baby tonight, let's just pretend like there's no way this could go wrong
Maybe we can get lost in a 21st century love song

Though I struggle to say it with rhythm and rhyme
You have the voice of an angel, I get lost in your smile
And I'm scaring myself cause I want to give my heart to you
But baby tell me the truth
The thing is I can't give you everything you deserve
You've never been one to want the things of this world
Still I wish I could give you the stars and the moon and the sea
But all I have to offer is me
And I know they're all telling you that ain't enough
And I'm not even sure they're wrong
But you can make me believe if you stay here with me
And I hear you start to hum along

But I don't wanna think about the past
Cause I don't want to think this might not last
We both know we try to have hope
But the doubt's never truly gone
I just wanna know who you really are
What makes you fall in love, what makes you fall apart
Baby tonight, let's just pretend like there's no way this could go wrong
Maybe we can get lost in a 21st century love song

Now it's been hundreds of days since you walked into my life
But I've never felt how I'm feeling tonight
There's so much to lose and I'm scared to death
But all I want is a lifetime spent catching my breath
Now I don't know what to say. I don't know what to do
Everything feels like nothing if I'm not with you
So I swallow my pride as I'm begging you please
Be kind to my heart as I fall to my knees

But I don't wanna think about the past
Cause I don't even think this might not last
We both know we try to have hope
But the doubt's never truly gone
I just wanna know who you really are
What makes you fall in love, what makes you fall apart
Baby tonight, let's just pretend like there's no way this could go wrong
Maybe we can get lost in a 21st century love song
