Nelly Furtado | Lyrics | Build You Up

Baby, don't believe it

Baby, don't believe it, oh, it's in your eyes
I can see the weakness you don't have to hide
I can take you under, under my wing
'Cause your voice gives me a song that I love to sing

Baby, they build you up only to tear you down
Don't give up, baby, don't believe it, baby, don't believe it
Baby, they build you up only to tear you down
Baby, don't believe it, baby, don't believe it, oh, it's good for nothing

You were just a child, ready to explore
And everything you saw looked like an open door
A place you can remember, you'd love to go back
But you can't even comprehend that it's all in the past

Baby, they build you up only to tear you down
Baby, don't believe it, baby, don't believe it, oh, it's good for nothing
Baby, they build you up only to tear you down
Baby, don't believe it, baby, don't believe it oh, it's good for nothing

Put your heart in my hands and I won't hurt you
Put your heart in my hands, I promise not to
Put your heart in my hands, I'll lift you up, you'll fly away
Fly away, lift you up

I'll never build you up only to tear you down
Don't give up, baby, don't believe it, oh, it's good for nothing
I'll never build you up only to tear you down
Baby, don't believe it, baby, don't believe it oh, it's good for nothing

I'll never build you up only to tear you down
Baby, just believe it, baby just believe it, oh it's good for something
I'll never build you up only to tear you down
Oh it's good for nothing, I love you the way you are
