"God's delays are not God's denials"


(Verse 1)
I’d leave a thousand men, just to be your one and only.
I’d walk a thousand miles, just to be in your arms tonight.
I’d lose you in a thousand lives, just to love you one time.
I’d take a thousand bullets, just to prove that I’m right.
I’d go to hell a thousand times, just to call you mine.
And baby I’d hurt myself a thousand times, if you put up a fight.
So come love me tonight, and we’ll be just fine…

(Chorus)
Baby I want you to break my heart in two,
As long as it means that I’ve got you.
Baby I want you to tell me a thousand lies,
As long as it means that you won’t ask me why.
Baby I want you to push me around,
As long as it means that you’re still around.
Baby I want you to do anything you want, but please don’t cheat.
Cause I need you, like a heartbeat.

(Verse 2)
I’d walk death row a thousand times, just to find you there at the end.
I’d burn a thousand bridges, just to keep our flames alive.
I’d rob a thousand places, just to show you I’m down whenever.
I’d sell a thousand pills, just to prove I mean business times five.
I’d dance a thousand days, just to be sure I can love you forever.
And baby I’d kill myself a thousand times, if you don’t take the dive.
So come love me right now, and we’ll be fine, however…

(Chorus)
Baby I want you to break my heart in two,
As long as it means that I’ve got you.
Baby I want you to tell me every lie,
As long as it means that you won’t ask me why.
Baby I want you to push me around,
As long as it means that you’re still around.
Baby I want you to do anything you want, but please don’t cheat.
Cause I need you, like a heartbeat.
Baby I want you to break my heart in two,
As long as it means that I’ve got you.
Baby I want you to tell me every lie,
As long as it means that you won’t ask me why.
Baby I want you to push me around,
As long as it means that you’re still around.
Baby I want you to do anything you want, but please don’t cheat.
Cause I need you...

(Bridge)
…To prove to me that you really do care.
Cuz I ain’t staying here, if you won’t do your share.
But baby let’s forget about all these silly metaphors.
Just so we can go back to how things were before…


(Chorus)
Baby I want you to break my heart in two,
As long as it means that I’ve got you.
Baby I want you to tell me every lie,
As long as it means that you won’t ask me why.
Baby I want you to push me around,
As long as it means that you’re still around.
Baby I want you to do anything you want, but please don’t cheat.
Cause I need you…
Baby I want you to break my heart in two,
As long as it means that I’ve got you.
Baby I want you to tell me every lie,
As long as it means that you won’t ask me why.
Baby I want you to push me around,
As long as it means that you’re still around.
Baby I want you to do anything you want, but please don’t cheat.
Cause I need you, like a heartbeat…

…I’d leave a thousand men, just to be your one and only… <3

This song is basically about the idea of finding your soul mate and needing them so desperately that you don't mind if they mistreat you, because they love you. So ultimatly, you need them like a heartbeat:)
