Lyric

Who said it was too late

To feel this way again?

I’m tired of pretending

That I don’t remember when

The day I let you in

The night I let you go

I don’t need anybody

Telling me what I should know

I tried to be the woman

You wanted me to be

Smiling through the silence

While I slowly disappeared

But if I still can feel it

I don’t have to hide

This heart belongs to me

And so does what I decide

I don’t need permission

To stay or walk away

We don’t have to fit inside

The words that people say

If my heart is moving

I’ll follow where it goes

I don’t need an answer

I just need to know

I can stay

I can leave

I can love you

I can breathe

What I feel

I will choose

There are no rules

No rules for love

Holding on forever

Doesn’t make it real

Love is not pretending

That the damage doesn’t heal

If I break a promise

That I meant the night before

It doesn’t make the feeling

Any less than it was

You can call me selfish

You can call me cold

But I won’t lose myself

Just to have someone to hold

Maybe I still want you

Maybe I don’t know

I can live without an answer

I can let the moment go

I don’t owe you forever

Just because we tried

Leaving doesn’t mean

That every memory was a lie

And if I turn around someday

It will be my choice

I’m finally learning

How to trust my own voice

I can stay

I can leave

I can love you

I can breathe

What I feel

I will choose

There are no rules

No rules for love

I wasn’t too late

I wasn’t wrong

I was just becoming

Who I was all along

I can miss your body

I can miss your voice

And still decide that coming back

Is not the only choice

I can change my mind

I can change my heart

I don’t have to hate you

Just to make a brand-new start

I can love you deeply

And still choose myself

I don’t need your permission

Or anybody else

I can stay

I can leave

I can want you

And be free

What I feel

I will choose

There are no rules

No rules for love

I can fall

I can rise

I can change

My mind tonight

This is mine

To lose or choose

There are no rules

No rules for love
