[Verse 1]
You text “come through”
I’m at your door by nine
We talk too loud
Pretend we’re doing fine
Empty cups
On the dresser by your bed
Laughing hard
So we don’t say what’s in our heads
[Chorus]
Being with you is bittersweet
Tastes like sugar on my teeth
Every kiss just cuts too deep
But I still
I still need it
Holding your hand feels right
Feels wrong
Like I’m waking in a breakup song
If this is love I’ll play along
‘Cause I still
I still need it (need it)
[Verse 2]
You call me “home”
But you’re packing up your plans
You say “not yet”
While you’re letting go my hand
Little lies
Folded in your Sunday clothes
You pull me close
Then you say you gotta go
[Chorus]
Being with you is bittersweet
Tastes like sugar on my teeth
Every kiss just cuts too deep
But I still
I still need it
Holding your hand feels right
Feels wrong
Like I’m waking in a breakup song
If this is love I’ll play along
‘Cause I still
I still need it (oh yeah)
[Bridge]
Tell me why the brightest nights
Always end in quiet fights
Why I’m saying I’m okay
While I’m begging you to stay (stay, stay)
If hurting’s all we ever do
Why am I still running to you?
[Chorus]
Being with you is bittersweet
Tastes like sugar on my teeth
Every kiss just cuts too deep
But I still
I still need it
Holding your hand feels right
Feels wrong
Like I’m waking in a breakup song
If this is love I’ll play along
‘Cause I still
I still need it (need it, need it)
