Too Worn to Be

[Verse 1]
You came in gentle, honest, and sure
I wanted to meet you with something pure
But every old promise took more than I knew
I spent what was tender before I found you

[Pre-Chorus]
You deserve a heart that can answer in full
Mine learned to give till the well ran dull

[Chorus]
I found the right one too late
Your hands are open, mine can’t reciprocate
I wish I could love you the way you deserve
But I gave away the parts I meant to preserve

[Verse 2]
No blame in your eyes, no debt to repay
Still I hear the quiet price that you pay
You bring me a future, I bring what remains
A room full of good things, a heart full of stains

[Bridge]
If I could turn back, I’d come to you whole
Not asking your patience to carry my soul

[Final Chorus]
I found the right one too late
Your hands are open, mine can’t reciprocate
I wish I could love you the way you deserve
So I’ll tell you the truth before we both hurt

[Outro]
You were right for me
I was too worn to be
