Prompt / Lyrics
(Verse 1)  
If she flinches when your hand reaches for her face,  
Know it’s not the moment, it’s the echoes of disgrace.  
Someone’s harsh words linger, casting shadows on her heart,  
She’s learned to guard her spirit, to keep her love apart.  
(Pre-Chorus)  
When you see her hesitation, it’s a story left untold,  
A tale of broken promises that left her feeling cold.  
But deep inside her armor, there’s a fire still aglow,  
A longing for connection that she’s afraid to show.  
(Chorus)  
Behind every cumbersome woman scared to love,  
Is a heart that’s tired of being broken, looking for someone to rise above.  
If she questions your honesty, know it’s not just you,  
It’s the ghosts of past betrayals that she’s still pushing through.  
(Verse 2)  
If she hesitates to share the secrets she holds dear,  
It’s the weight of past betrayals that whispers in her ear.  
Someone took her trust and shattered it apart,  
Now she’s building up her walls, protecting her own heart.  
(Pre-Chorus)  
When she looks for reassurance, it’s a plea to understand,  
That every scar she carries shaped the woman you hold in your hands.  
She’s searching for a safe space, a love that feels like home,  
In the silence of her struggle, she’s not meant to be alone.  
(Chorus)  
Behind every cumbersome woman scared to love,  
Is a heart that’s tired of being broken, looking for someone to rise above.  
If she questions your honesty, know it’s not just you,  
It’s the ghosts of past betrayals that she’s still pushing through.  
(Bridge)  
So take it slow, be gentle, let her breathe in the air,  
Show her that you mean it, that you truly care.  
With every little moment, build her trust anew,  
Let her know she’s worthy, let your love shine through.  
(Chorus)  
Behind every cumbersome woman scared to love,  
Is a heart that’s tired of being broken, looking for someone to rise above.  
If she questions your honesty, know it’s not just you,  
It’s the ghosts of past betrayals that she’s still pushing through.  
(Outro)  
So hold her close and steady, let your love be the key,  
To unlock all the fears and set her spirit free.  
For behind every woman, there’s a story to be told,  
Of a heart that’s ready to love, if you’re brave enough to hold.
