Lyrics
[Intro] You call, I let it ring twice Then I smile at the third time [Verse 1] You know the route to my apartment Past the bakery on Fifth You bring the tea I like with honey Like you planned the whole of this I was good at keeping distance Had my reasons, had my rules Then you looked at me and asked me What would I lose? [Pre-Chorus] If I tell you where it hurts Would you hold it without turning away? I don't need a perfect promise Just a reason to stay [Chorus] Come a little closer, don't make me guess Put your hand in mine, let the silence confess We can take it slowly, but don't leave me waiting Every little moment with you feels like changing Come a little closer, let your guard come down I can hear your heartbeat underneath this sound If you want the real thing, I can give you mine Meet me in the middle, right on time [Verse 2] Your jacket's hanging by the doorway Still smells faintly like the rain You were telling me your long way I was memorizing every phrase Now the room feels less like my room Since you started leaving things One blue shirt beside the window One new way to breathe [Pre-Chorus] If I tell you what I fear Would you stay until the fear has passed? I don't need a perfect future Just a chance that lasts [Chorus] Come a little closer, don't make me guess Put your hand in mine, let the silence confess We can take it slowly, but don't leave me waiting Every little moment with you feels like changing Come a little closer, let your guard come down I can hear your heartbeat underneath this sound If you want the real thing, I can give you mine Meet me in the middle, right on time [Bridge] No more rehearsing what to say No more measuring every move You don't have to earn your place here I already made room for you [Final Chorus] Come a little closer, don't make me guess Put your hand in mine, let the silence confess We can take it slowly, but don't leave me waiting Every little moment with you feels like changing Come a little closer, let your guard come down I can hear your heartbeat underneath this sound If you want the real thing, I can give you mine Meet me in the middle, right on time [Outro] Right on time You and I Right on time
