Lyrics

It’s not that I’m a fraid I’m (G)not e nough for her.

It’s not that I can’t find the (G)words to say.

But when she’s with him, (G)she seems hap pi er

’cause when I and think I of don’t you, want to take my that a way.

(Dm)How man y times can I (C)see your face, (F)how man y times will you (C)walk a way?

I just (C)have to let you know.

I’m not (F)try’n’ to start a fire with this flame.

But I’m (F)wor ried that your heart might feel the same.

And I have to be (C)hon est with you ba (F)by, tell me if I’m (Dm)wrong and this is cra (G)zy.

But I got you this (Em)rose and I need to (F)know:

Will you let it die or let it grow?

(Oh, oh, oh.)

(Oh, oh, oh.) Die or let it grow?

(Oh, oh, oh.)

(Oh, oh, oh.)

It’s not that I don’t care a (G)bout the love you have.

It’s not that I don’t want to (G)see you smile.

But there’ no way that (G)he can feel the same

’cause when I and think I of don’t you, want to take my mind goes wild.

(Dm)How man y times can I (C)see your face, (F)how man y times will you (C)walk a way?

I just (C)have to let you know.

I’m not (F)try’n’ to start a fire with this flame.

But I’m (F)wor ried that your heart might feel the same.

And I have to be (C)hon est with you ba (F)by, tell me if I’m (Dm)wrong and this is cra (G)zy.

But I got you this (Em)rose and I need to (F)know:

Will you let it die or let it grow?

(Oh, oh, oh.)

(Oh, oh, oh.) Die or let it grow?

(Oh, oh, oh.)

(Oh, oh, oh.)

Will you let it die or let it grow?

You can tell me to stop if you al (C)read y know, though I’m not sure my (C)heart can take it.

But the look on your face says, “Don’t (C)let me (F)go.”

Will you let it die or let it grow?

I’m not try’n’ to start a fire with this flame.

But I’m (F)wor ried that your heart might feel the same.

And I have to be (C)hon est with you ba (F)by, tell me if I’m (Dm)wrong and this is cra (G)zy.

But I got you this (Em)rose and I need to (F)know:

Will you let it die or let it grow?

(Oh, oh, oh.)

(Oh, oh, oh.)

(Oh, oh, oh.)

(Oh, oh, oh.)
