Bottle It Up

There'll be girls across the nation that will eat this up
Babe, I know that it's your soul, but could you bottle it up?
Get down to the heart of it
No, it's my heart
You're shit out of your luck
Don't make me tell you again, my love
Love, love, love
Love, love, love, love

I am aiming to be somebody this somebody trusts
With her delicate soul, I don't claim to know much
Except, soon as you start to make room for the parts
That aren't you, it gets harder
To bloom in a garden of love
Love, love, love
Love, love, love, love

Only thing I ever could need
Only one good thing worth trying to be
And it's love, love, love, love
I do it for love, love, love, love

We can understand the sentiment you're saying to us
Oh, but sensible sells, so could you kindly shut up?
And get started at keeping your part of the bargain
Aw, please, little darlin'
You're killing me sweetly with love
Love, love, love
Love, love, love, love

Only thing I ever could need
Only one good thing worth trying to be
And it's love, love, love, love
I do it for love, love, love, love

Started as a flicker meant to be a flame
Skin has gotten thicker, but it burns the same
Still a baby in a cradle, got to take my first fall
Baby's getting next to nowhere with a back against the wall
You meant to make me happy, make me sad
Want to make it better, better so bad
But save your resolutions for your never new year
There is only one solution I can see here

Love, you're all I ever could need
Only one good thing worth trying to be, and it's love
Love, love, love
I do it for love, love, love, love

Oh, only gonna get, get what you give away
So give love, love
Only gonna get, get what you give away
Love
