Adele - To Be Loved lyrics

[Verse 1] I built a house for a love to grow I was so young that it was hard to know I'm as lost now as I was back then Always make a mess of everything It's about time that I face myself All I do is bleed into someone else Painting walls with all my secret tears Filling rooms with all my hopes and fears [Pre-Chorus] But oh my, oh my I'll never learn if I never leap I'll always yearn if I never speak [Chorus] To be loved and love at the highest count Means to lose all the things I can't live without Let it be known that I will choose to lose It's a sacrifice, but I can't live a lie Let it be known, let it be known that I tried [Verse 2] I'm so afraid, but I'm open wide I'll be the one to catch myself this time Tryna learn to lean into it all Ain't it funny how the mighty fall? Looking back, I don't regret a thing Yeah, I took some bad turns that I am owning I'll stand still and let the storm pass by Keep my heart safe till the time feels right [Pre-Chorus] But oh my, oh my I'll never learn if I never leap I'll always yearn if I never speak [Chorus] To be loved and love at the highest count Means to lose all the things I can't live without Let it be known that I will choose to lose It's a sacrifice, but I can't live a lie Let it be known [Bridge] Let it be known that I cried for you Even started lying to you What a thing to do All because I wanted [Chorus] To be loved and love at the highest count Means to lose all the things I can't live without Let it be known, known, known That I will choose, I will lose It's a sacrifice, but I can't live a lie Let it be known Let it be known that I tried, that I tried Let it be known that I tried
