What's It Like To Be Loved? Lyrics

Turn the lights out when I come in

I leave my fears by the door

Wasn't expecting anyone to be here

But I don't know what I was hoping for

What's it like to be loved

In the way that you're always enough?

What's it like to be wanted?

To turn around and not feel like you're at risk

Of those people with their knives and bad intentions and death wishes

Coming straight for you

Of those people who were waiting for you to miss one step

So they could pull the rug out from you

I leave my enemies at the door

They're not coming in

'Cause I get to choose who's allowed to listen

But I don't choose who wins

What's it like to be loved

In the way that you're always enough?

What's it like to be wanted?

To turn around and not feel like you're at risk

Of those people with their knives and bad intentions and death wishes

Coming straight for you

Of those people who were waiting for you to miss one step

So they could pull the rug out from you

And my secrets might be sold to the highest bidder

I don't know who I can trust

But that's okay, it's been a learning experience

For what's done is already done

What's it like to be loved

In the way that you're always enough?

What's it like to be wanted?

To turn around and not feel like you're at risk

Of those people with their knives and bad intentions and death wishes

Coming straight for you

Of those people who were waiting for you to miss one step

So they could pull the rug out from you

I leave my enemies at the door

They're not coming in

'Cause I get to choose who's allowed to listen

But I don't choose who wins
