Be still my fragile heart.
I reach back for your embrace.
I feel the air in your chest Â
It draws me nearer to sleepÂ
while against you, I am pressed.Â
For an instant I feel safe.Â
Though I donât dare tell you.Â
Not quite in love, but more than in like.
Iâm in limbo between the two.
Like is a word that is said with ease.
Love burns of mutual desire.Â
You know Iâm afraid of love.
So you add water to the fire.Â
You know how hurt Iâve been.
I beg you to be slow with me, please
Iâm still more than in like, yet not quite in loveÂ
So you let me live in the middle where Iâm at ease.Â
My heart is stuck in between.
Because no one wants to pick up the pieces
of a fragile heart they take.Â
At the strongest Iâve felt
Iâm still a little broken inside.Â
So, I gradually pushed you away
Be still, my fragile heart.
You know very little of love yet
Because love is patient, and love is kind.Â
and never a harsh word or threat.
So just wait, fragile little heart of mine.
Stay content between in like and in love.
Because time will show you a sign.
If this man is worth all you have to give.
Eventually, youâll know it all.
Because youâll no longer be as fragile.
because you didnât have to fall.
Because If heâs the one... youâll see
Heâs always right there to catch you.
Heâll piece you back together, one at a time.
For you, there isnât anything he wouldnât do.
Oh, fragile little heart of mine.
This will make you strong.
So you can handle all that love
that heâs wanted to give you all along.
