I started falling right when I found you
Now I'm building my world around you
And suddenly we're on the fence
Oh, yeah
When I painted you in my future
All the black and white turned into color
So none of this is making sense
Some will make us so afraid
It's going to give yourself away
But every time you push I break

I love you
But you're holding my love for ransom, for ransom
It's criminal - what you get from me
Quit holding my love for ransom, for ransom
I give it all, but I won't mean a thing
Unless you can give it back to me
Give it back, give it back to me
Give it back, give it back to me
Give it back to me
Quit holding my love for ransom

Do you need someone more understanding?
Are you asking or just demanding
You're made a hostage of my heart
Oh, oh oh
There's no guarantess on what we're doing
But the road you're on can lead you to it
I'll be your compass, get you to the star
'Cause when I'm living in between
Pieces of broken dream
There's so much of you I need

I love you
But you're holding my love for ransom, for ransom
It's criminal - what you get from me
Quit holding my love for ransom, for ransom
I give it all, but I won't mean a thing
Unless you can give it back to me
Give it back, give it back to me
Give it back, give it back to me
Give it back to me
Quit holding my love for ransom
