The Weight of Love
Frank Ocean

Verse 1:
I'm standing on the edge again, wondering if you'll see me,
All the ways I try to tell you, but the words just won't come freely.
My heart's a canvas painted gray, your touch is what I’m needing,
But every time I reach for you, it's like I’m just deceiving.

Chorus:
Oh, the weight of love, it feels like a stone,
Crushing me slowly, and I'm feeling so alone.
In the silence of the night, when I wish I could show,
How deep my love runs, but it’s hard to let it grow.

Verse 2:
I watch the stars reflecting on the surface of your soul,
Yet I'm drowning in this ocean, where I'm fighting to feel whole.
Every laugh and every glance, they tie me to this madness,
But I hide behind my walls, wrapped tight in my sadness.

Chorus:
Oh, the weight of love, it feels like a stone,
Crushing me slowly, and I'm feeling so alone.
In the silence of the night, when I wish I could show,
How deep my love runs, but it’s hard to let it grow.

Bridge:
And I try to hold your hand, but my own is always shaking,
Fear’s the thief that steals my chance, without a word I’m breaking.
I write these letters in my mind, never sending them to you,
‘Cause the ink would bleed the truth, and the truth is I love you.

Chorus:
Oh, the weight of love, it feels like a stone,
Crushing me slowly, and I'm feeling so alone.
In the silence of the night, when I wish I could show,
How deep my love runs, but it’s hard to let it grow.

Outro:
So don't give up on me just yet, I’m learning how to feel,
With every heartbeat, step by step, I’m trying to reveal.
The weight of love is heavy, but darling, I'm still here,
Just a girl tied in knots, hoping you'll lend me your ear.
