Nelly Furtado 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 soul

That I love to sing

 

Baby, they'll build you up

Only to tear you down

Don't give up

Baby don't believe it

Baby don't believe it

 

Baby they'll 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 explode

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'll 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'll 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 (put your heart)

In my hands (in my hands)

I'll lift you up, you'll fly away, fly away

I'll 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 wanna love you the way you are
