[Intro: Soft, melancholic piano. Breathful, shaky female vocals]
[Verse 1]
I’ve been standing right here, heart in my hands
Wanting to reach you, scared of the past
I learned how to love without asking for more
So I didn’t feel needy... you didn’t feel forced
[Verse 2]
I stayed quiet when something felt wrong
Told myself I was being strong
But love shouldn’t feel like walking on air
Afraid that one step... means you won’t be there
[Pre-Chorus: Building emotion, voice breaking]
I’m not trying to rewrite what’s been
I just need to know you see me now
[Chorus: Powerful, desperate yearning]
Can we fall in love again?
Restart what faded then
Let the past be the past
But don’t ignore where it left me at
Do it over, but this time right
Choose me even on the hard nights
You’re my person, that’s the truth
But I’m scared to fall if I lose you
[Verse 3]
I was hurting, feeling used by distance
Feeling second to your silence
I needed reassurance before the fall
Not after I already gave my all
[Bridge: Slowing down, whispered and intimate]
I don’t wanna beg, don’t wanna chase
Just wanna feel safe in your embrace
If I open up... don’t disappear
I can’t love you through my fear
I’ll meet you halfway, I swear I will
Just don’t leave me wondering how you feel
[Chorus: Full energy, pleading]
So let’s fall in love again
Slower now, but deeper then
Let the past be the past
And love me the right way this time
[Outro: Fading, vulnerable]
You’re my person, I still believe
I don’t wanna do life without you and me
But before I fall all in again…
Show me love…
And I’ll love you again...
