Tell me I’m enough right here, right now (right now)
Chorus
I don’t want fireworks every night (no)
Just your hand when it don’t feel right (feel right)

A soft place to land when I lose my way (my way)
You don’t have to save me, understand (understand me)
Sometimes love is a soft place to land (mm, yeah)

The cracks in the mirror staring back at me (oh)
I wear my pride like a second skin (mm)
But I’m learning how to let you in (let you in)

You don’t rush me, you let me breathe (breathe)
Let me come to you naturally (naturally)
No pressure, no grand plans (no)
Just being here, just holding hands (mm-hmm)

Sometimes love is a soft place to land (mm)
Bridge
If I go quiet, don’t take it wrong (don’t take it wrong)

Mm, you’re steady (so steady)
Mm, I’m safe here (safe)
