NF - If You Want Love lyrics
[NF - If You Want Love lyrics]
I just need some time
I'm tryna think straight
I just need a moment in my own space
Ask me how I'm doin', I say "okay, " yeah
But ain't that what we all say?
Sometimes I think back to the old days
In the pointless conversations with
The old me
Yeah, back when my momma used to hold me
I wish somebody woulda told me
If you want love
You gon' have to go through the pain
If you want love
You gon' have to learn how to change
If you want trust
You gon' have to give some away
If you want love, if you want love
Yeah, as a kid I used to think life
Is moving so slow, I watch it go by
Look out the window on my bus ride
I thought the world was so small
Through my closed eyes
I've always tried to control things
In the end that's what controls me
Maybe that's why I'm controllin'
I wish somebody woulda told me
If you want love
You gon' have to go through the pain
If you want love
You gon' have to learn how to change
If you want trust
You gon' have to give some away
If you want love, if you want love
The older I get
I feel like I'm always tryna save time
Talkin' to the voices in my head
They make me think twice
Tellin' me it doesn't mean it's
Wrong because it feels right
I'm scared that one day I'll wake up
And wonder where'd the time go
Talk about the past like it's the
Present while I rock slow
I'll sit in the living room and
Laugh with kids of my own and tell 'em
If you want love
You gon' have to go through the pain
I wish you woulda told me if you want love
You gon' have to learn how to change
I wish somebody woulda told me
If you want trust
You gon' have to give some away
You gon' have to give
If you want love, if you want love
If you want love, if you want love
I'm tryna think straight
I just need a moment in my own space
Ask me how I'm doin', I say "okay, " yeah
But ain't that what we all say?
Sometimes I think back to the old days
In the pointless conversations with
The old me
Yeah, back when my momma used to hold me
I wish somebody woulda told me
If you want love
You gon' have to go through the pain
If you want love
You gon' have to learn how to change
If you want trust
You gon' have to give some away
If you want love, if you want love
Yeah, as a kid I used to think life
Is moving so slow, I watch it go by
Look out the window on my bus ride
I thought the world was so small
Through my closed eyes
I've always tried to control things
In the end that's what controls me
Maybe that's why I'm controllin'
I wish somebody woulda told me
If you want love
You gon' have to go through the pain
If you want love
You gon' have to learn how to change
If you want trust
You gon' have to give some away
If you want love, if you want love
The older I get

You gon' have to learn how to change

If you want trust
You gon' have to give some away
You gon' have to give
If you want love, if you want love
If you want love, if you want love
