I could learn to love you, I'm old enough,
I could learn to love you, I'm brave enough,
Not like a mother's love, decided from the womb,
Not like a burning love that flares the night and fades at noon,
I mean the stubborn kind that you choose.

I could learn to listen and not be selective,
I could learn to listen, to hear you, and respect it,
I could get to know you apart from my own reflection,
I could learn to let go of you and set aside my expectations,
And put away the push and shove.

I may not have what it takes for love, but I'm not afraid of the stakes for love,
And I will weather the aches for love, grace will see me true,
I have nothing here to prove.

I could learn to love you, I could be faithful,
I could learn to love you, lay it on the table,
I could be your closest friend, I can take some distance,
I could be your biggest fan and I can handle some resistance,
I will tell the truth.

I could learn,
I could learn,
I could learn,
I could learn,
I could learn,
I could learn,
I could learn,
I could learn,
I could'
I could learn,
I could learn,
I could learn.
