Always A Romantic Lyrics

I was always a romantic

It always seemed worth it

Kept it at the center of my game

Even if I didn't take your name

What other reason to go moving?

What other reasoning to go

Leaving my roots

And taking a chance?

How I wrapped myself around you

How I gave a decade to you

How I cradled all your silent doubt

And learned to swallow when I wanted to shout

Cause I was always a romantic

I really thought that you were worth it

Thought you'd keep me center of your game

And be tough enough to face your shame

I guess I wasn't seeing clearly

Though the signs were all around me

I could fill a song with let downs

All the ways I wish I held my ground

But I was always a romantic

I always thought that I was worth it

Really gave it all I never held back

What a brutal thing to wreck that
