Verse 1)
I’ve walked these streets a thousand times alone
Knew every crack in the sidewalk, every corner of my own
Never thought a stranger’s smile could rewrite what I know
But you looked at me like you’d already come home
Your laugh lines up with memories I swear I never made
The way you say my name feels like a song we never played
I’m standing on the edge of something I can’t name
And it’s pulling me in like déjà vu in flames
(Pre-Chorus)
I’ve never felt this sure and this terrified like breaking all at once
Like I’m running toward the fire just to feel the warmth
(Chorus)
I’m scared to death of falling
But God, I’m already gone
Every piece of me is calling
For a place I’ve never belonged
Till you
It all fits too perfect, like we wrote this life before
I’m terrified I’ll ruin it
But with your hand in mine, I’d walk through any door
No shadow’s dark enough to keep me from you anymore
(Verse 2)
I keep waiting for the catch, the moment it falls apart
I’ve built my walls so high I forgot I had a heart
But you climb them like you’ve done it in another life
Turn my fear to dust with just one look from those eyes
I’m new at this, being brave, being open, being seen
I’m afraid I’ll say too much or not say what I mean
But you lean in like you already know the words I’ll choose
And suddenly losing feels like something I could never do
(Pre-Chorus)
I’ve never jumped without looking down
But you make the ground feel optional somehow
(Chorus)
I’m scared to death of falling
But damn, I’m already gone
Every piece of me is calling
For a place I’ve never belonged
Till you
It all fits too perfect, like we wrote this life before
I’m terrified I’ll ruin it
But with your hand in mine, I’d walk through any door
No shadow’s dark enough to keep me from you anymore
(Bridge)
Let the thunder come, let the night try to swallow us whole
I’ve got your heartbeat under my palm, and that’s enough to make me bold
If this is a dream, don’t wake me
If this is a risk, then take me
I was half-alive till you
Now even the dark feels brand new
(Final Chorus – softer, then building)
I was scared to death of falling
Look at me, I’m already yours
Every fear feels small when you’re calling
Me into a world I never explored
With you
It all fits too perfect, like we’ve done this all before
I was terrified I’d lose it
But your hand in mine is all the courage I need and more
There’s no shadow dark enough
No height too steep, no road too rough
With you, I’m not afraid
With you, I’m not afraid
(Outro)
I’m still scared to death…
But I’d follow you anywhere.
