Letra de How Dare You Love Me

There’s a bulldog growling at the gates of my heart
But he doesn’t scare you at all
There’s a cold steel lock on a cast-iron door
But you’re wearing away the wall
How dare you love me like this?
How dare you love me like this?
I just push back and resist
My pride is tight in my fist
But you endure and persist
How dare you love me like this?
How dare you love me?
Don’t you care how your fingers are torn
As you reach through these brambles and thorns?
There’s a long list of womеn who built me this shield
And I hold it to guard me from harm
But lifting it keeps gеtting harder to do
With the tug of your hand on my arm
How dare you love me so bold?
How dare you love me so tough?
When will the struggle get old?
When will enough be enough?
How dare you love me so brave?
What is there in me to save?
How dare you love me?
Behind my back they call me Jericho
And I know you know why they do
I feel the cracks. I hear the trumpets blow
As a brand-new world rumbles through
And you love me! You love me!
I can’t believe you love me
I just can’t understand
Why you reach and reach again
For the battle-weary hands
Of this dark and damaged man
But take me if you can
And dare to love me
