Don't let them get the best
Don't allow others to take advantage of your emotions.
Of your heart leave the rest
Keep the remainder of your heart protected and reserved.
Up to love and you'll be takin care of
Rely on love to safeguard and nurture your well-being.
Many come to try to tear away your heart
Many will attempt to break your emotional bonds.
Never carin' for you from the very start
Some may not genuinely care for you from the beginning.
Still you wonder if this time could be real
Despite doubts, you contemplate the authenticity of new relationships.
Tryin' to figure out if they came just to steal
Struggling to determine if someone is entering your life with ulterior motives.
Don't let them get the best
Guard against others taking the most valuable part of your emotions.
Of your heart leave the rest
Preserve the remainder of your heart for genuine love.
Up to love and you'll be takin care of
Trust in love to provide for and nurture you.
Time and time again you've listened to a smile
Repeated experiences of being deceived by outward appearances.
Never knowin' what's behind it all the while
Unaware of the true intentions behind friendly gestures.
You give yourself away until love is gone
You invest emotionally until love is exhausted.
And don't consider that they might be doin' harm
Failure to consider that others may be causing harm.
Don't let them get the best
Protect yourself from others exploiting the most precious part of your emotions.
Of your heart leave the rest
Leave the remainder of your heart to be nurtured by genuine love.
Up to love and you'll be takin care of
Rely on love to ensure your well-being.
Hey there, you let him wipe away that little tear
Encouragement to let someone wipe away your sadness.
You tryin so hard to hold back what you really feel
Struggling to conceal true feelings and emotions.
Always look inside the people that your with
Always be introspective about the people you associate with.
And never hang around those who can not give
Avoid those who are incapable of reciprocating genuine emotions.
