Verse 1
You left your shadow on my bedroom wall
I talk to it when no one calls
Your perfume's fading from my sheets
But somehow you're still haunting me
Pre-Chorus
And I hate that I still know
Every little way you used to hold me close
I should let you disappear
But losing you feels worse than keeping you here
Chorus
So if you stay, don't say forever
Just lie to me a little better
Hold me like you mean it tonight
Even if you leave by morning light
If you stay, don't make it easy
I wanna feel you when you leave me
'Cause loving you hurts just right
Like a beautiful lie I can't survive
Verse 2
I see your name beneath my screen
Pretend I don't know what it means
You always come when I move on
Then disappear before the dawn
Bridge
Maybe we're better as a memory
Something broken I still wanna keep
Maybe I'm scared that when you're gone
I'll finally learn I was wrong
Final Chorus
So if you stay, don't say forever
Just hold me like we'll last together
Kiss me underneath the bedroom light
And let me lose you one more time
If you stay, I'll close my eyes
Pretend tomorrow isn't goodbye
Just for tonight, be mine
Even if you're never really mine
