Lyrics
[Intro] City’s hushed, my phone on mute Half-read texts I never sent you Street signs blur through the window glass Thought I’d forget, but it still hits fast (yeah) [Chorus] Late night, getting closer Every time I say it’s over I rewind, start it over You’re the weight and the four-leaf clover (oh) Took my heart, wrote your name on the cover I fall back when I swear I’ve recovered Late night, getting closer To loving you or letting you go forever [Verse 1] You said “call me when you’re honest” Now my pride’s a heavy promise Scrolling through our pictures like a habit Trying not to tap it, trying not to grab it (yeah) Friends say “you should really move on” But they never heard our favorite song They don’t know the way you laugh when you’re tired How you light me up, how you start that fire (woah) [Chorus] Late night, getting closer Every time I say it’s over I rewind, start it over You’re the weight and the four-leaf clover (oh yeah) Took my heart, wrote your name on the cover I fall back when I swear I’ve recovered Late night, getting closer To loving you or letting you go forever [Breakdown] [beat drops to piano and pads, distant vocal chops] If I text “come through,” will I break again? If I stay strong, will I lose my friend? I’m on read, but I still hit send (still hit send) Tell me where this ends (where this ends) [Chorus] Late night, getting closer Every time I say it’s over I rewind, start it over You’re the weight and the four-leaf clover (oh) Took my heart, wrote your name on the cover I fall back when I swear I’ve recovered Late night, getting closer To loving you or letting you go forever (forever) Late night, getting closer To loving you or letting you go forever (yeah)
