Lyrics I Could Learn to Love You - Ashley Cleveland

I Could Learn to Love You

I could learn to love you, I’m old enough
I could learn to love you, I’m brave enough
Not like a mother’s love, decided from the womb
Not like a burning love that flares at night and fades at noon
I mean the stubborn kind that you choose
I could learn to listen and not be selective
I could learn to listen, to hear you and respect it
I could get to know you apart from my own reflection
I could learn to let go of you and set aside my expectations
And put away the push and shove
I may not have what it takes for love
But I’m not afraid of the stakes for love
And I will weather the aches for love, grace will see me true
I have nothing here to prove
I could learn to love you, I could be faithful
I could learn to love, and lay it on the table
I could be your closest friend, I can take some distance
I could be your biggest fan, I can handle some resistance
I will tell the truth
