[Verse - Ambient synth pads]
I wanna grow old
With you next to me,
Wanna know the world
That you see,
With hands in hands,
(Singing songs of love).
.
But I see love
Like a fever,
(Like it’s burning me alive).
Yet I never give up,
(Like it’s the air I breathe).
[Pre Chorus- Soft reverb vocals]
Every time you’re near me
My pulse forgets its pace,
You don’t know the hold you have —
You’re the quiet in my chaos.
[Chorus - Deep 808 bass,
Deep, pure, sine-wave style]
Can we stay here,
And be soft like rain?
’Cause I don’t want you to go.
Can we stay close,
And not wither like fall?
’Cause I want to hold on.
.
Can you stay here…
Until I feel my heart?
’Cause I’m used to things
Keep falling apart...
[Verse- Low vocal layers]
You move through my veins,
A shadow and a spark,
I crave you in the mornings,
And even more after dark.
Every breath you leave behind
Clings to me like fate,
I don’t know how to want you
Without wanting too much.
[Bridge- Dark airy harmonies]
No, I don’t trust love
And all the fake promises
That you made.
Caught you lying
And the mini heartbreaks…
When you said
We might not be endgame,
Love felt like a suffering
With no ending.
.
(They say) Trust love,
It’s the only thing you’ve known.
(They say) Trust love,
It’s where you belong.
But I only trust
The way you breathe my name.
I only trust
The way you look at me
Like I’m the flame.
[Chorus- Cinematic R&B swell]
Can we stay here,
And be soft like rain?
’Cause I don’t want you to go.
Can we stay close,
And not wither like fall?
’Cause I want to hold on.
.
Can you stay here…
Until I feel my heart?
’Cause I’m used to things
Keep falling apart...
[Outro- Fading synths]
So stay with me,
Just stay with me —
Soft like rain,
Soft like rain…
Until I feel my heart again.
