When You Love Too Much

(album: Firebird - 2021)

I somehow seem to do this every time
I leave my whole heart out there on the line
When they get scared, when they run
And it's just me and the setting sun
I can't help but think that I've been here one too many times

'Cause I don't know why it hurts so bad
When I love someone, I give it all I have
So many pieces of me that I can't get back
Sometimes it's just not enough
When you love too much

I won't apologize for caring like I do
And if the truth hurts, I can't dance around it for you
Maybe you're different than I am
Maybe you just can't understand
Why someone would go to war when they have everything to lose

'Cause I don't know why it hurts so bad
When I love someone, I give it all I have
So many pieces of me that I can't get back
Sometimes it's just not enough
When you love too much
When you love too much

And there's every chance I'll end up here again
But my heart stays open and it'll pay off in the end

'Cause I don't know why it hurts so bad
When I love someone, I give it all I have
So many pieces of me that I can't get back
Sometimes it's just not enough
When you love too much
When you love too much
