[Verse 1]
Your affection
Tender as a fading tide
On the distance
It all feels magnified
But when I try to bring you closer
You get colder once again

[Chorus]
Would you give it up for me?
Would you give it up for me?
I wanna know your love is out there on the front with mine
One way love will leave us black and blue inside
One way love will leave us black and blue inside

[Verse 2]
I'm wide open
Maybe it's bad that you know that, too
I'm not playing
'Cause who would wanna be so cruel?
If I gave you all the space you need
Would we be closer once again?

[Chorus]
Would you give it up for me?
Would you give it up for me?
I wanna know your love is out there on the front with mine
One way love will leave us black and blue inside
One way love will leave us black and blue inside
One way love is something I won't recognize
'Cause one way love will leave us black and blue inside

[Bridge]
When I try to bring you closer
You get colder once again
One way love will leave us black and blue inside
One way love will leave us black and blue inside
One way love is something I won't recognize
'Cause one way love will leave us black and blue inside

[Outro]
One way love
One way love
One way love
