Intro (soft ad-libs)
Ooh, yeah, uh (baby)
Late-night talkin', my chest hurtin'—I need you
Verse 1
Phone on silent but I feel you in the dark,
Every midnight memory replay like a spark.
Your perfume on my pillow, I still taste the truth,
Countin' all the ways I miss the rhythm of you.
City lights outside, but the room feels bare,
Used to be your heartbeat tucked up in my air.
Tell me how you walk away and leave the light,
When every little thing about you feelin' right.
Pre-Chorus
I been hidin' feelings like a secret song,
But the chorus keeps gettin' louder when you're gone.
Baby, tell me, where do I go?
When my compass points you and I'm lost in the low.
Chorus
I need you right here, right now, (ooh)
Come lay beside me and drown out the doubt.
I need you like breath, like the beat of my chest,
Girl, without you I'm half, can't find the rest.
Need you right here, right now, (yeah)
Bring that love back and teach me how—
To breathe again, to sleep again, to feel whole,
Baby, I need you right here, right now.
Post-Chorus (ad-libs)
Ooh (need you), yeah (right now), baby (come through), ah
Verse 2
I been ridin’ solo, but I miss the we,
The little things you do, that magic remedy.
You used to be my shelter in storms come and go,
Now the thunder loud but the room feelin' low.
Ain't tryna play no games, ain't tryna talk cheap,
Just wanna hear your heartbeat close to me.
We can fix the pieces, stitch the seams back tight,
Doin' late confessionals under city lights.
Pre-Chorus
My pride keep knockin', but it don't say a word,
When you're the only voice my loneliness heard.
Baby, don't leave me guessin' what could've been,
When the truth is you’re the medicine for everything.
Chorus
I need you right here, right now, (ooh)
Come lay beside me and drown out the doubt.
I need you like breath, like the beat of my chest,
Girl, without you I'm half, can't find the rest.
Need you right here, right now, (yeah)
Bring that love back and teach me how—
To breathe again, to sleep again, to feel whole,
Baby, I need you right here, right now.
Bridge (vulnerable, melismatic)
Tell me what I gotta do to make you stay, (stay)
Miss your laugh, miss the way you say my name. (my name)
I been prayin' on the low, callin' on your touch,
Ain't no medicine for this missing you stuff.
If lovin' you is wrong then I don't wanna be right,
'Cause every empty morning needs you back by night.
Breakdown (soft, breathy)
Come close, speak slow, let your heart show,
I'm layin' down the armor, girl, let the truth flow.
I don't need no headlines, don't need no lights,
Just your hand on mine through a thousand nights.
