Not sure where it came from, but I'm sure glad it showed up.

Lyrics

I used to keep score To see who was winning I lived in a war Right from the beginning

It took a long time to learn You're not always gonna get burned If you love somebody true

I learned the hard way To give is to get If you give it away Then you can't lose the bet

It took a long time to learn You're not always gonna get burned If you love somebody true

You must love yourself Before you can love anybody else I don't love you for just being you I love you for what I get to be with you Love is what you give

It took a long time to learn You're not always gonna get burned If you love somebody true If you love somebody true

Nicely optimistic, and great reminder here: "I don't love you for just being you / I love you for what I get to be with you"

Fun to listen to too.

This is really good. Lots of great hooks here - the short upward vocal lines contrasting against the longer lines in the verse, the changing chords under that held note in the chorus. And there's a lovely warmth to that muted strumming. Feels like it'd work as well as a big stadium anthem as it does in this intimate setting. Top stuff.

Great melody and lyrics! I really like that lively down strum pattern
