Intro)
(A lonely, echoey guitar pluck starts, then a sudden "Island" drum fill)
(Yeah... I'm on my knees right now)
(Don't walk away... listen)
(Verse 1)
I’m standing in the rain at your apartment door
I never knew my heart could hit the basement floor.
I traded all my time for the lights and the stage
But now I’m just a ghost on a lonely page.
I know I let the ego get the best of me
But baby, without you, there’s no rest for me.
(Pre-Chorus)
(The bass starts to pulse, getting warmer and louder)
Is there any oxygen left in this room?
‘Cause I’m suffocating in the thought of losing you.
Yeah, I’m breaking...
(Chorus)
(The beat drops—heavy, tropical, and hypnotic)
I never thought I’d have to beg for love
But I’d give up everything I’m dreaming of.
Just to have you back, just to feel your touch
Baby, I’m realizing I need you too much.
Yeah, I’ll beg for love, I’ll beg for you
(Down on my knees, yeah)
(Whatever I gotta do)
(Verse 2)
(Sing this part with a "stutter" rhythm, very snappy)
Look, I made a mistake, I’m human, I’m real
But the hole in my chest is the only thing I feel.
I’m skipping the club, I’m skipping the flight
I’m staying right here 'til I make it all right.
Got that R&B pain with a tropical swing
I’d give you the world, I’d give you the ring.
(Bridge)
(The music goes "half-time"—very slow and heavy bass)
Call me a fool, call me a mess
But I won't settle for anything less.
I’m not leaving 'til you hear my plea
Baby, come back to the center of me.
(Chorus)
I never thought I’d have to beg for love
But I’d give up everything I’m dreaming of.
Just to have you back, just to feel your touch
Baby, I’m realizing I need you too much.
Yeah, I’ll beg for love, I’ll beg for you.
