Long ago I knew a boy
Who’s heart was on his sleeve
He trusted almost anyone
And loved so fearlessly

But he knows better than that now
He locked his heart away
With all the other foolish things
And there it’s gonna stay

Cause I don’t need anyone
And I don’t need nothing
Cause I’ve learned that every love
Is a ticket to lose
And I owe it all to you

Nothing ventured nothing gained
I’ll take that one as verse
Better loved and lost they said
But it’s definitely worse

So I don’t need anyone
And I don’t need nothing
Cause I’ve learned that every love
Is a ticket to lose
And I owe it all to you
