Verse 1 — Ethan]
I never know the words to say
They always get caught on the way
But somehow when I’m next to you
The quiet doesn’t scare me too
You laugh and suddenly I find
I’m leaving all my nerves behind
And when you wrap your arms around me
The whole world gets a little quiet
[Pre-Chorus — Ethan]
I don’t know when it happened
I don’t know what you did
But every time I’m close to you
I feel like I can just… exist
[Chorus — Ethan]
‘Cause in your arms, I don’t have to hide
Don’t have to find the perfect words tonight
You hold me close, and somehow I know
There’s nowhere else I’d rather go
Maybe I’m falling, maybe it’s true
Maybe I’m finding my home in you
And you’re only one wall away
But somehow I miss you anyway
⸻
[Verse 2 — Jade]
I thought that I was used to eyes
Watching me like I don’t belong outside
So I learned to laugh, I learned to smile
Pretend it didn’t hurt after a while
Then you looked at me and all I saw
Was someone looking back at me, that’s all
And when your arms are wrapped around me
For once I don’t care who’s watching
[Pre-Chorus — Jade]
I don’t know where we’re going
Maybe that’s what scares me too
But every time I close my eyes
I somehow end up thinking of you
[Chorus — Jade]
‘Cause in your arms, I don’t have to run
Don’t have to hide from anyone
You hold me close, and somehow I know
I’m safe enough to let myself go
Maybe I’m falling, maybe it’s true
Maybe I’m finding my home in you
And you’re only one wall away
But somehow I miss you anyway
⸻
[Bridge — Ethan / Jade alternating]
ETHAN:
If the whole world tells me this is wrong…
JADE:
Why does being near you feel so right?
ETHAN:
If you’re afraid, then I’ll be afraid too…
JADE:
Just don’t let go of me tonight…
ETHAN:
I don’t need you to change—
JADE:
I don’t need you to save me—
BOTH:
Just stay here beside me
And let me be me
⸻
[Final Chorus — Both, harmonizing]
In your arms, I don’t have to hide
We don’t need the perfect words tonight
Hold me close, and somehow we’ll know
Maybe we’ve already found our home
Maybe we’re falling, maybe it’s true
Maybe I’m finding myself with you
And when the whole world feels far away
You’re the one place I want to stay
ETHAN, softer:
You’re only one wall away…
JADE, answering:
And somehow I miss you anyway…
BOTH:
Maybe home was right next door.
