Tibny Shine - Willing to Try

I'm willing to try this out
‘cause you're what I'm all about
I can see you're cautious
But please don't be furious
If you find I ain't as perfect
As what you began to expect
But for you babe, I'll try my best
I promise I'm not like the rest
I've seen others have your heart
Didn't deserve it from the start
Who knows, it might even work
Please don't be like those other jerks
That took me heart to play with
Sealed the death of love with a kiss
My heart is still tender and sore
I have been broken before
They started a flame, lit the wick
I was too blind to see the trick
Sky high, back down I blasted
The strong parts of me that lasted
Are now embedded deep inside
Being my compass, my guide
I'm afraid to go through this door
But each day I trust you more
I can't close my eyes and shut out
This ever growing little sprout
Like or love, choose what you will
I want your heart, send me the bill
