Say It Now

[Instrumental opening]

[Verse 1]
I fell like rain on desert skin
Soft enough to let you in
You said forever with that grin
Like it was something you could win

I gave you secrets, gave you time
Let you caress my fragile lines
You held me close like I was rare
But only when you [held me… held me…] cared

[Pre-Chorus]
You loved the way I looked at you
Like you were something holy
You loved the power in my hope
But never meant to [hold… hold…] me

[Chorus]
Say it now [say it… say it…]
If you ever meant a word
Say it now [now… now…]
If my love was more than just a blur
You took my heart
You wore the crown
You let me build it from the ground
If you loved me — [me… me…]
Say it now

[Verse 2]
You traced devotion down my spine
Called me yours in borrowed time
Kissed me like a promise kept
Then left without a single [regret… regret…]

I replay every late-night vow
Trying to find the truth somehow
But truth was just the game you played
To keep me steady while you [strayed… strayed…]

[Pre-Chorus]
You liked my fire in your hands
The way I burned for you
But you were never brave enough
To burn the same way [too… too…]

[Chorus]
Say it now [say it… say it…]
If I was more than just a phase
Say it now [now… now…]
If you remember me that way
You held me close
Then shut me out
You let me love you inside out
If you loved me — [me… me…]
Say it now

[Final Chorus]
Don’t say it now
I don’t need it anymore
Don’t say it now
I’m not standing at your door
You had me once
You let me down
You don’t get absolution now
If you loved me —

You should’ve said it then
