Like You Mean It

You, I know you’ve said it before
You won’t let me down again
Oh but you don’t sound so sure
And we built a house in the sand
You didn’t mean to knock it over
You’ve just got such heavy hands

Just promise me a sunset
Promise me a white dress
And to love me when we’re old...

This time, this time
Say it like you mean it, mean it
Oh ‘cause I, I wanna believe
This time, this time
Say it like you mean it, mean it
Oh ‘cause I, I wanna believe

You look like you’re braced for a fall
You’re so scared to break a promise
That you don’t make them at all
But I know your intentions are good
It’s like your heart gave you instructions
That your mind misunderstood

Just tell me I’m your favorite
Tell me you can fix it
And I’ll help you draw the plans

And this time, this time
Say it like you mean it, mean it
Oh ‘cause I, I wanna believe
This time, this time
Say it like you mean it, mean it
Oh ‘cause I, I wanna believe

Tell me that the hard part’s over, and let it be the truth
Tell me you can’t live without me, and let me see the proof
‘Cause I wanna believe you, yes I do
I wanna believe you, yes I do

This time, this time
Say it like you mean it, mean it
Oh ‘cause I, I wanna believe
This time, this time
Say it like you mean it, mean it
Oh ‘cause I, I wanna believe
I wanna believe you...
Yes I do...
