You got a way of just talking too much
Wonder what emptiness you're trying to fill
You got a way of just giving too much
I wish you would let it go to let you feel

It's cool
To shut the world out sometimes

If I showed you how to be loved
Would you learn to love yourself
Would you know you've given enough
To take some of what's left

Cause if there's one thing about loving somebody
Counterintuitive maybe but true
It is that whatever your heart is coming with
There will be tonnes of it around for you (baby, so)

If I showed you how to be loved
Would you learn to love yourself
Before anybody else

You got a way of just shying away
If they only knew what they're missing out on
Looking for ways for you to escape
But it's only you who sees prison bars

It's cool
To let the world in sometimes

If I showed you how to be loved
Would you learn to love yourself
Would you know you've given enough
To take some of what's left

Cause if there's one thing about loving somebody
Counterintuitive maybe but true
It is that whatever your heart is coming with
There will be tonnes of it around for you (baby so…)

If I showed you how to be loved
D'you learn to love yourself
Before anybody else

Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh

If I showed you how to be loved
Would you learn to love yourself
Would you know you've given enough
To take some of what's left

Cause if there's one thing about loving somebody
Counterintuitive maybe but true
It is that whatever your heart is coming with
There will be tonnes of it around for you (baby, so)

If I showed you how to be loved
D'you learn to love yourself
Before anybody else
