Album: Soft Control (2015)

Hardest Part

[Verse 1:]
The hardest part I know
Is giving up a little bit of my control
I open up my heart, just a little part
Though my mind says no
If you're so close to me
Why do you remain a mystery?
I've analysed enough, feel like giving up
When my doubts take hold

[Chorus:]
I can't dwell on it
Lately I've been going through hell on it
I keep lying to myself, I don't need nobody else
But I do, I need you
I can't sleep on it
Maybe I've been thinking too deep on it
I've been lying to myself, I don't need nobody else
But I do, I need you
I need you
I need you
I need you

[Verse 2: John Legend]
And it's not hard to tell
You've already peered behind my veil
I let you look inside, it's too hard to hide
Cause you know me well
And baby, I'm confused
Maybe I ask too much of you
I tend to overthink almost everything
When I should let it be

[Chorus: Laura Welsh & John Legend]

[Bridge: Laura Welsh & John Legend]
And if there's an answer
Won't you let me know?
I'm in the dark
This doesn't feel like home
I've tried my very best
Oh, why I must confess
At times, our love
Is much too much to hold

[Chorus: Laura Welsh & John Legend]
