Verse 1
Late nights, city lights, I’m walking home (mm)
Thinking ’bout the way you make me feel alone
Every shadow on the wall reminds me of your face
Caught between the right and wrong, I can’t escape (oh… yeah)
Pre-Chorus
I try to tell myself I don’t need you (don’t need you…)
But every word I speak leads back to you
Softly, quietly, my heart betrays (betrays… mm)
Every promise I made fades away
Chorus
Stay close, don’t go (oh-oh, stay close… mm)
I need you here, don’t leave me low
Every whisper, every touch, every lie (every touch… yeah)
Pulls me in, I can’t deny
Stay close, don’t go (oh-oh)
I’m lost in you, I hope you know (know… oh…)
Verse 2
Coffee cups and broken nights, we talk in tones (mm)
Your silence cuts deeper than my phone
I keep replaying everything you said
Hoping for a word before it’s all in my head (oh… yeah…)
I see your shadow in the streetlight glow
Every step you take feels like I’m letting go
But I chase the echo of your laugh
Holding on to something I can’t grasp (mm… oh… yeah)
Pre-Chorus
I tell myself it’s just a phase (phase… mm)
But you linger in my mind, won’t fade away
Softly, quietly, I give in again (give in… oh… yeah)
Caught in the pull of where we begin
Chorus
Stay close, don’t go (oh… stay… mm)
I need you here, don’t leave me low
Every whisper, every touch, every lie (yeah… every touch…)
Pulls me in, I can’t deny
Stay close, don’t go (oh… oh…)
I’m lost in you, I hope you know (mm… oh… yeah)
Bridge (room for extended runs)
If we fall, I’ll catch you, I swear (I swear… mm… oh… yeah)
Even if the world don’t care (don’t care… mm)
We’ll find a way through all the pain
Hold me now, don’t let this fade (oh… mm… stay… yeah)
Chorus (final)
Stay close, don’t go (oh-oh, stay close… mm)
I need you here, don’t leave me low
Every whisper, every touch, every lie (every touch… every touch… yeah)
Pulls me in, I can’t deny
Stay close, don’t go (oh-oh… oh… mm)
I’m lost in you, I hope you know (mm… oh… yeah… mm)
Outro
Stay… stay close (mm… oh…)
I’m lost in you (lost in you… yeah… oh…)
