Love Me in the Light

Nightly drive, should be asleep
I'm crying 'bout another creep
Frozen hands hold broken lines
And I'm alone again tonight
And waiting
And waiting

To see your name pop on my screen
Sometimes I wish that you were mean
You treat me like you treat yourself
That's why I'm high up on your shelf
And waiting
Still waiting

First I'm tough but then I'm weak
And if I was a masterpiece
You'd say I'm worthy of a ring
And kiss me like I'm everything to you

You want me in the shadows
In the dark hours of the night
Why is it so hard for you to love me in the light?
A dirty little secret
You keep me out of sight
When all I'm asking of you is to love me in the light
Love me in the light
Love me in the light

A butterfly in a cocoon
I watch to get my mind off you
I'm seeing metamorphosis
And I can't help but think of us
We're changing
We're changing, oh

I hoped that I could plant a seed
That made you see the best in me
And dissipated all your doubts
And you'd declare your love out loud for me

You want me in the shadows
In the dark hours of the night
Why is it so hard for you to love me in the light?
A dirty little secret
You keep me out of sight
When all I'm asking of you is to love me in the light
Love me in the light
Love me in the light
Love me in the light
Love me in the light

Who cares what people are saying?
I know I am still deserving
Why can't you love me the way I am?
Who cares what people are saying?
I know I am still deserving
Why can't you love me the way I am?

You want me in the shadows
In the dark hours of the night
Why is it so hard for you to love me in the light?
A dirty little secret
You keep me out of sight
When all I'm asking of you is to love me in the light
Love me in the light
Love me in the light
Love me in the light
Love me in the light
