Verse 1
It’s not the words you say
It’s all in what you do
The love you show
(The love you show)
The love yoy show
(The love you show)
Do you take the picture
But leave the frame?
Do you stay when storms call out my name?
Can you see forever
Through the scars I hide?
The future’s here
Do you stand your ground
Or run and leave it all behind?
Chorus / Drop
When the future calls
Will you stand… or walk away?
There’s a difference in wanting me
Or staying when it’s harder to breathe
Do you let go when it’s not easy?
Or hold on and fight for me?
When the future calls your name
Will you stand…
Or walk away?
[Drop ]
[Vocal chops: “Stand… stay… prove it… stay…”]
[Melodic synth mirrors main vocal line]
Verse 2
Some call just when it’s lonely at night
Some show up ready to make it right
Some disappear when the storm comes through
When loving me is harder to do
Bridge / Breakdown
Do you only want me
When it’s easy to stay?
Or will you fight for me
On the darkest day?
If I’m too much, don’t walk away
Real love… stays
(Real love… stays)
[Quiet → Build]
Real love… stays
Final Build / Drop
When the future calls
Will you stand… or walk away?
(If you love me—prove it)
(Love me—prove it)
There’s a difference in wanting me
Or staying when it’s harder to breathe
Do you let go when it’s not easy?
Or hold on and fight for me?
If you love me—prove it
Love me—prove it
Real love stays…
Real love stays
