Can’t Walk Away

[Verse 1]
Door clicks soft
World fades out
You laugh low
Say my name in a whisper
Coat on the chair
Your keys on the floor
You move close
Like you’ve done this forever
Your fingers trace
The line of my jaw
Slow, like you got
All night to remember
[Pre-Chorus]
You tug my shirt
I lose my breath
You taste like truth
I can’t confess
Your smile says stay
Your eyes say “go”
But our bodies talk
And they talk too close
[Chorus]
We know it’s wrong
But we can’t walk away
Every time you leave
You come back the same day
Those secret moments
Got a hold on me (yeah)
Your breathing on my neck
Your scent on my sheets
We know it’s wrong
But we can’t walk away
Can’t walk away
Can’t walk away
[Verse 2]
Lights still on
But the blinds pulled tight
You pull me in
Like you’re starving for time
Your perfume clings
To my white T-shirt
I’ll wear that sin
Till the morning hurts
You laugh too loud
Then bite your lip
Say “this the last”
But your hands don’t quit
[Pre-Chorus]
You trace my spine
Like you own the map
You say “it’s late”
But you arch right back
Your eyes say “home”
Your ring says “stay”
My heart says “run”
But my hands both stay
[Chorus]
We know it’s wrong
But we can’t walk away
Every time you leave
You come back the same day
Those secret moments
Got a hold on me (oh)
Your breathing on my neck
Your scent on my sheets
We know it’s wrong
But we can’t walk away
Can’t walk away
Can’t walk away
[Bridge]
Tell me who we tryna fool
When we fall like this
Every promise that we make
Dies under your kiss
Say “we gotta stop”
Then you pull me near
Every line that we draw
Disappears right here (right here)
[Chorus]
We know it’s wrong
But we can’t walk away
Every time you leave
You come back the same day
Those secret moments
Got a hold on me
Your breathing on my neck
Your scent on my sheets
We know it’s wrong
But we can’t walk away
Can’t walk away
Can’t walk away (mmm)
