If I took you in to be my own
how do I know you won't run away?
Even if I provided for you,
I can't bind your heart to mine.
Here I am, ready to taste love again.
Then you come along, and I want you.
Am I really a fool to fall in love?
Or, would this happen to any other guy?
If I took you in to be my own
how do I know you won't run away?
Even if I provided for you,
I can't bind your heart to mine.
Now that I have you, I can't let you go.
It's always me thinking "mine" forever.
So what if you leave me for another,
do I just wait until you come back to me?
If I took you in to be my own
how do I know you won't run away?
Even if I provided for you,
I can't bind your heart to mine.
If I treated you as my very own,
I can't be sure if you'd honor me
by being only faithful to me.
I can't bind your heart to mine.
If I took you in to be my own
how do I know you won't run away?
Even if I provided for you,
I can't bind your heart to mine.
No, I can't bind your heart to mine.
