I Need You To Love Me

I Need You To Love Me - Barlowgirl

Why? Why are you still here with me?

Didn’t you see what I’ve done?

In my shame I want to run,

And hide myself.

Yeah, but it’s here I see the truth,

I don’t deserve you.

But I need you to love me,

And I, I won’t keep my heart from you this time.

And I’ll stop this pretending that I can,

Somehow deserve what I already have

I need you to love me

I, I have wasted so much time

Pushing you away from me.

I just never saw how you

Could cherish me.

Cause you’re a God who has all things,

And still you want me.

And I need you to love me,

And I, I won’t keep my heart from you this time.

And I’ll stop this pretending that I can,

Somehow deserve what I already have

Yeah, ye-ea-eah

Your love makes me forget what I have been.

Your love makes me see who I really am.

Your love makes me forget what I have been, oh-oh.

And I need you to love me, yeah

I need you to love me, ye-ea-eah!

And I’ll stop this pretending that I can,

Somehow deserve what I already have

Somehow deserve what I already have

I need you to love me, yeahI need you to…

oh oh oh oh eo

oh oh oh oh eo

oh oh oh oh eo

oh oh oh oh eo

Love me, love me, yah

This song is one of my favorites. It is so awesome how God does this. He knows whats going on in your head so then you go to Church and hear a lesson on how everything you are thinking is a lie from Satan and then your youth minister plays a song that is exactly what you need to hear. Now every time I feel like I'm not good enough this song pops into my head and I'm immediately reminded that he wants me. Even though I messed up, he is still here with me, and he loves me. I don't have to pretend to be perfect because He loves me even with all my flaws. I will never be good enough for Him so pretending is pointless, I just need to be real. When I am week He is strong.
