If it’s me

You say my name like it means something more
Like I’m not just standing outside of your door
You pull me close, say you feel it too
But you still don’t move like I need you to

You kiss me slow like you’re scared it’s real
Like giving your heart’s not a deal you can seal
I try to be patient, I try to be light
But I’m losing sleep almost every night

⸻

[Pre-Chorus]
You say you’re healing, I say I understand
But where do I fall in your plans?

⸻

[Chorus]
If it’s me, then why am I waiting?
Why does loving you feel like I’m chasing?
You say I’m different, don’t treat me the same
But I’m still stuck playing this game

I don’t wanna be something you might choose
Or someone you’re scared to lose
I just wanna know where I stand
If it’s me… then take my hand

⸻

[Verse 2]
You let me in just enough to believe
Then something shifts and you pull back from me
There’s always a reason, always a wall
Something that keeps you from giving it all

I hear it in things that you don’t say
In the space that you slowly create
And I hate that I notice it all
Every little rise and fall

⸻

[Pre-Chorus]
You say “don’t rush it,” I try to be still
But loving you’s not something I can chill

⸻

[Chorus]
If it’s me, then why am I waiting?
Why does loving you feel like I’m chasing?
You say I’m different, don’t treat me the same
But I’m still stuck playing this game

I don’t wanna be something you might choose
Or someone you’re scared to lose
I just wanna know where I stand
If it’s me… then take my hand

⸻

[Bridge] (soft → build)
I see it in you when you look at me
Like you feel something you won’t let be
Like you’re one step from giving in
But you’re holding back where it should begin

(build)
I’d wait for you if I knew you’d stay
But how long do I give my heart away?
I don’t wanna lose myself in this
Just hoping one day you’ll commit

Pop country slow song like Dixie chicks style with violins
