Struggling with Denial? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!
Somewhere in the back of my mind Secretly I know you will find Me amongst the blushing and glow Deep beyond the things I don't show Mystery's a beautiful thing What a gift a woman can bring Never let it out just like that Let him slowly figure it out How can a flower bloom Just over a day? And at night You gotta let the water drain in I didn't wanna fall in love with you I didn't wanna know the things I knew It wasn't till I looked into the mirror Denial You were like a power of nature Telepathic beautiful creature Understanding all of my weakness Patient, loving, knowing you'd reach it Cynical and hurt was just me You were never supposed to be Part of what I would call amazing Took so long to finally see How can a flower bloom Just over a day? And at night You gotta let the water drain in I didn't wanna fall in love with you I didn't wanna know the things I knew It wasn't till I looked into the mirror Denial I didn't wanna fall in love with you I didn't wanna know the things I knew It wasn't till I looked into the mirror Denial I see the way the wind blows Like open minds for us No complicated barriers To hold us back I didn't wanna fall in love with you I didn't wanna know the things I knew It wasn't till I looked into the mirror Denial I didn't wanna fall in love with you I didn't wanna know the things I knew It wasn't till I looked into the mirror Denial I didn't wanna fall in love with you I didn't wanna know the things I knew It wasn't till I looked into the mirror Denial
