How Will I Know Lyrics

by Allen Stone

I'm so hesitant to believe this is real,
I'm hiding my feelings, I'm trying to conceal,
The joy inside my heart that you'll always bring,
I am muting my voice when it wants to sing,

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e100719-allen_stone~how_will_i_know_lyrics.html ]
I can't get too heavy,
I can't be naive,
I can't hold too tight,
'Cause who knows when she'll leave?

How will I know when to let myself go?
How will I see what's safe for me?
When can I open up my heart?
When can this love that I'm waiting for start?
How will I know?

I've only truly loved once before,
Blind to the risk of feeling the pain,
I'm fighting the fears, I'm trying once more,
It's hard to give without knowing the gain,

I can't get too heavy,
I can't be naive,
I can't hold too tight,
'Cause who knows when she'll leave?

How will I know when to let myself go?
How will I see what's safe for me?
When can I open up my heart?
When can this love that I'm ready for start?

I'm ready for peace,
I'm ready, I'm ready to start,
Ready to believe,
Believe, yeah, yeah,

How will I know when to let myself go?
How will I see what's safe for me?
When can I open up my heart?
When can this love that I'm waiting for start?
How will I know?

Whoa,
Whoa,
Whoa,
Whoa.
