This woman is growing weary 

Of having to be so strong 

Of having to pretend I’m made of stone 

So I won’t end up with no broken bones 

I can’t fight every battle alone 

I want someone to lift me 

Heal my wounds and give me kisses on my head 

Say words that should be said 

Fear is not the matter 

I would so much rather open up my heart 

And lay down my guard 
 [bad word]  

If I could [bad word] someone 

To have my back and never do me wrong 

Then I would give my love up 

Just like that stop singing this soldier song 

(repeat) 

whomever said love was overrated 

must not be getting’ none 

my independent days have had their fun 

but when the parties over 

and the workin’ day is done 

I just want [bad word] home to someone 

I want a love to take me 

As I am not make [bad word] myself 

Or be like no one else 

Fear is not the matter 

I would so much rather open up my heart 

And just lay down my guard
