The first day we met girl, it was so beautiful
And I talked to you 'cause you were there, oh no
It was obvious, our feelings were mutual
I should've told you then, but I just didn't know
But then you tried to own me
Too many times you called me
But now I guess I'm afraid I'ma have to leave you lonely
And although that I want you
And although that I need you
Oh baby

Try to understand that it's hard for me
'Cause I'm so confused
I ain't making plans, I can't take you on, it's too soon
I can't make amends, I can't ask you to stay
Though I want you to
It's hard to give my heart away to you

I don't mean to bring up all my past history
You see, that someone way back
Since you tried to own me
Too many times you called me
And that is why I'm afraid I might have to leave you lonely
And although that I want you
And although that I need you
I need you

Try to understand that it's hard for me
'Cause I'm so confused
I ain't making plans, I can't take you on, it's too soon
I can't make amends, I can't ask you to stay
Though I want you to
It's hard to give my heart away
So hard to give my heart away
It's hard to give my heart away to you

Since you try to own me
Too many times you called me
And that is why I'm afraid I might have to leave you lonely
And although that I want you
And although that I need you
I need you

Try to understand that it's hard for me
'Cause I'm so confused
I ain't making plans, I can't take you on, it's too soon
I can't make amends, I can't ask you to stay
Though I want you too
It's hard to give my heart away to you

Try to understand that it's hard for me
'Cause I'm so confused (you know that I'm so confused)
I ain't making plans, I can't take you on, it's too soon
(Oh, baby, it's too soon, too soon)
I can't make amends, I can't ask you to stay
Though I want you too (you know I want you to but)
It's hard to give my heart away
So hard to give my heart away
It's hard to give my heart away to you
