Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] You laugh and touch my shoulder Like you always do I almost make a joke back But the words get stuck in the room You tilt your head and ask me "Are you okay?" I hear myself say "yeah" But my heartbeat gives me away [Pre-Chorus] ‘Cause I should feel safe I should feel steady But every time you say my name It hits too heavy [Chorus] That’s when it hit me You were never just a friend Every late-night little secret Was a prayer I couldn't send You were in my every story I just colored out the truth That’s when it hit me I was falling into you [Verse 2] You’re talking about someone You used to almost love I laugh a little too quiet While I memorize your shrug You say you’re scared of hurting Someone again I swear I nearly tell you "You already did My friend" [Pre-Chorus] ‘Cause suddenly I’m shaking On your living room floor How did I miss the moment You became what I hoped for? [Chorus] That’s when it hit me You were never just a friend Every late-night little secret Was a prayer I couldn't send You were in my every story I just colored out the truth That’s when it hit me I was falling into you [Bridge] If I say it out loud Do I lose you for good? Do I stay in the shadow Like a coward would? You reach for my hand Ask "What’s on your mind?" I whisper "It’s you" And watch our worlds collide (oh) [Chorus] That’s when it hit you I was never just a friend Every almost Every maybe Was a line we’d always bend We’re trembling in the silence But your eyes are saying "stay" That’s when it hit us We were falling anyway
