What will it take just for a chance To show you what I'm all about? I’m ready, just give me your hand And we'll tear this whole place down Just come through and stay with me awhile 'Cause all I want to do is make you smile So it begins with mutual friends, parties, and eye contact Too nervous to make a move; I’m so happy that you came along and- An introduction made me reluctant to leave 'Cause all I wanted to do was continue keeping you company A few words exchanged, so many things in common Can I just say my mind was made from that second and— I think you're so cool and you're so cute And I hope that I can see you again But if you've got doubts I understand, can you just answer me this? What will it take just for a chance To show you what I’m all about? I’m ready, just give me your hand And we'll tear this whole place down Just come through and stay with me awhile 'Cause all I want to do is make you smile As the months persisted, I think I missed my chance Somewhere along the way Your hand in mine, It felt so right, What can I do to make you stay? Now I’m taking the time to map out a plan 'Cause I know what I want and nothing can stand in my way So Wake up! Wake up! Can't you see we're overdue? For some downtime, I’ve been dying to reach you And ask you… What will it take just for a chance? To show you what I’m all about I’m ready, just give me your hand And we'll tear this whole place down Just come through and stay with me awhile 'Cause all I want to do is make you smile

I told you years ago That if you ever left, your scent would be what I’d miss most But I didn’t know How honest that would be Cause now you’re back again, It’s like we’re living in twenty thirteen Right now you’re coming home with me And I don’t regret a thing Take you back to my apartment, lets relive these moments The good ones from our past Get the keys into the door, pin me up against the wall Can I have this one last dance? Cause I know our numbered days are running out So lets enjoy them while we can I can’t tell you how nice it is to see you again But with the comfort in familiar The ice is getting thinner Keep a light on when you leave Just in case that you decide that you’ve got more time to have one more dance with me They say after seven years, You shed your old skin Reveal a second layer, One you would’ve never touched I can’t imagine a piece of my skin that you haven’t I guess I don’t have to think that much You know my door is always open We could live inside these moments Don’t need to think about what comes next Lets just enjoy this time together I know that we don’t have forever But at least now we’ve got another chance And I know our numbered days are running out So lets enjoy them while we can I can’t tell you how nice it is to see you again But with the comfort in familiar The ice is getting thinner Keep a light on when you leave Just in case that you decide that you’ve got more time to have one more dance with me C’mon, c’mon C’mon, c’mon C’mon just one more dance with me? C’mon c’mon C’mon c’mon C’mon Keep the light on when you leave

Lay It On Me 04:13
I don’t like this distance You seem so content with it But I just want to see you I just want to know that you care I just want to hold you As if nobody else is there So baby won’t you tell me whats going on in your chest And don’t hold back on me Unleash your vulnerability, let it bring you to your knees My darling you can have my hand to help you up I wont let you fall all on your own You can have my tongue twisted words Cause you cause all the lumps inside my throat Push your body up against me God, you make me so nervous I feel it in my gut I don’t want to know how many other people you’ve got this fucked up I don’t want to be another number, another statistic, a notch on your bed frame I just want to be the one name you overhear that makes you feel differently Darling lay it on me Come clean to me, let me read your body Want to see you dance in the dark Close my eyes so that I can’t see Interpreting braille from your goosebumps With my fingertips, pressing on your skin Your legs wrapped around my torso Our tongues tangoing in unison Keep our secrets in the shadows So baby wont you tell me whats going on in your chest And don’t hold back on me Unleash the vulnerability, let it bring you to your knees Darling you can have my hand to help you up I wont let you fall all on your own You can have my tongue twisted words Cause you cause all the lumps inside my throat so Push your body up against me God you make me so nervous I feel it in my gut I don’t want to know how many other girls you've got this fucked up I don’t want to be another number, another statistic, a notch on your bed frame I just want to be the one name that you overhear that makes you feel differently Darling lay it on me

Still 03:15
Sometimes, I feel my hands begin to tremble Only happens when she leaves again And there are nights that I’m reaching for you body But I get wrinkled sheets instead Still I Just want to keep round because there’s Still time For us Lay still And I will build you a home wrapped inside my arms There’s still time For us Heavy heart It only happens when you’re leaving But it’s weightless when you decide to stick around Love, a conceptualization of a feeling I think that there’s still time for us There’s still time for us There is still time for us There is still time for us There is still time for us Heavy heart It only happens when you’re leaving But it’s weightless when you decide to stick around Love, a conceptualization of a feeling I think that there’s still time for us There’s still time for us (Just want to keep ‘round because there’s still time for us) There is still time for us There is still time for us (I’ll build you a home wrapped inside my arms) There is still time for us

C U L8R 03:15
As I swipe through the shallow truths of my depleted energy I can’t lie, I see a few people I’d never want you to meet Cause they’ve got eyes a little brighter then mine Genuine smiles and fit bodies I wouldn’t want them to take your attention away from me Cause I know, I know, I know, I know I got so many imperfections And I’m so, I’m so, I’m so, I’m so So bad at connection But I got something in me for you I feel like we got a little more work to do So tell me when the timings right So I can move closer Cause I want you more and more each day But you keep pushing forward Don’t leave me behind Don’t you say goodbye If anything just say “see you later” And ring my phone when the timings right So we can progress to be something greater Until then, guess I’ll see you later See you later

Colour me melancholy Like the sweetest sound of the saddest song My mood lives in minor key Ever since you moved on I’ve been towing the lines of progress Its just been flirting with disaster I could never Give my heart to someone When my minds already made I tried to walk away Unsuccessfully Give myself to someone new But you have whatever’s left of me So can we go back to my apartment Hear my phone ring, where it all started Two strangers who never saw this coming (Oh no) A twist of fate, out of all the chances We didn’t take, I found us dancing In my living room, I think I knew you Before we ever even met We were nothing but a seed Hidden between all the dirt and the weeds Water me with your conversation I feel a sense of familiarity At the root of it all We bloomed into something beautiful I never stood as tall as I did Until the moment you walked beside me and held my hand Where did we go wrong? Did our foundations get poisoned by our pasts? Now we’re just lingering ghosts Sleeping in unmade beds So can we go back to my apartment Hear my phone ring, where it all started Two strangers who never saw this coming (Oh no) A twist of fate, out of all the chances We didn’t take, I found us dancing In my living room, I think I knew you Before we ever even met I think I knew you before we— I think I knew you before we— I think I knew you before we— So can we go back to my apartment Hear my phone ring, where it all started Two strangers who never saw this coming

I filled my bed the same day you left And filled my phone with combinations Like I needed them to crack a code Like there’s s mystery I’ve yet to unfold God, I’m so impatient Got marks on my skin from all the places we’ve been And still some girls take paths frequently travelled Oh, she followed your journey All through my body But if anybody wants me I want it to be you Oh, she followed your journey All through my body But if anybody wants me I want it to be… Who is this stranger in the mirror I don’t recognize myself Let alone the name of the woman in my bed I do some things cause it’s easy But with you I actually care I have no excuse for my behaviours I just hope you’re still there Cause I got these marks on my skin from all the places we’ve been And I wouldn’t mind if they stayed permanent But sometimes I fold to tempting moments I know Cause I’m too afraid to let go and give it all Oh, she followed your journey All through my body But if anybody wants me I want it to be you Oh, she followed your journey All through my body But if anybody wants me I want it to be you I want it to be you

Ours 03:54
Sing to me something pretty Something light Something worth keeping When it’s dark Something to hold close when we’re apart We’re approaching something so vile Something sharp Twist in the knife into my heart We’re losing feeling, losing everything that kept us steady now Now it’s gonna be hard But it’s gonna be ours (And nothing can take that from me) And it’s gonna be hard But it’s gonna be ours (And nothing can take that from you) And it’s gonna be hard But it’s gonna be ours (And nothing can take that from us) No, nothing can take that from us Sing to me something you’re feeling in your chest Call off the guards and let them rest Cause i think it’s time we face the death of what we are Sing to me your song of leaving, Tell me that we are worth keeping But you can’t hold broken glass When all you’re doing is bleeding And it’s gonna be hard Yeah it’s gonna be hard But it’s gonna be ours (And nothing can take that from me) And it’s gonna be hard But it’s gonna be ours (And nothing can take that from you) And it’s gonna be hard But it’s gonna be ours (And nothing can take that from us) No, nothing can take that from us (Sing to me your song of leaving, Tell me that we are worth keeping But you can’t hold broken glass When all you’re doing is bleeding) (Sing to me!) (Sing to me something you’re feeling in your chest Call off the guards and let them rest Cause I think it’s time you face the death of what we are And it’s gonna be hard Yeah it’s gonna be hard But it’s gonna be ours (And nothing can take that from me) And it’s gonna be hard But it’s gonna be ours (And nothing can take that from you) And it’s gonna be hard But it’s gonna be ours (And nothing can take that from us) No, nothing can take that from us

You’ve got a funny way dancing In and out of my atmosphere It was a pleasure just to be acquainted with you my dear But now you’ve got to go I’d rather be alone I still love you so I thought you should know That I don’t want to let you go (Let you go) But I don’t want you to stay if you don’t (If you don’t) Darling, you’re too far gone (Too far gone) I just can’t hold on (Can’t hold on) Darling you’re too far gone (Too far gone) I just can’t hold on (Can’t hold on) And you’re a temptress I can’t deny your truth Cause now my body’s aching Feeling withdrawals of you Cold shivers running down my spine Missing the rhythm of the unwind Enamour me darling, I was yours to find Now I don’t want to let you go (Let you go) But I don’t want you to stay if you don’t (If you don’t) Darling, you’re too far gone (Too far gone) I just can’t hold on (Can’t hold on) Darling you’re too far gone (Too far gone) I just can’t hold on (Can’t hold on) (Enamour me, darling) I just cant hold on

I know she’s coming around Knockin’ at your chest She wants a little bit more of your Sunday’s best She wants to know if she could have it Tell her you got someone you could lie with If you’d allow it, I’d take off that dress Get it my bedroom, lets make a damn mess I’m losing ground, quick little falling All that you are, I want to dive in Startle me at my front door Think I saw this in a dream before Maybe you’ll figure it out on that drive home Make me your first stop and tell me “I’m yours” Take two steps forward, move ten steps back We were making progress baby, How you gonna just go and leave me like that? A struggle to move We don’t like to lose Right now no one is winning So let’s bend the rules So quickly I'd fold If only to hold you Know that if I do I wont let you go Startle me at my front door Think I saw you in a dream before Maybe you’ll figure it out on that drive home Make me your first stop and tell me “I’m yours” Make me your first stop and tell me “I’m yours” Make me your first stop and tell me “I’m yours” I know she’s coming ‘round Knocking at your chest She wants a little bit more of your Sunday’s best She wants to know if she could have it No Tell her you got someone you could die with

(I can’t wait for you to stop being broken) (No, I can’t wait for you to start being open) I can’t wait for you to stop being broken I can’t wait for you to start being open I can’t wait for you to stop being broken I can’t wait for you to start being open I can’t wait for you to stop being broken (I can’t wait for you//I can wait for you) I can’t wait for you to start being open (I can’t wait for you//I can wait for you) I can’t wait for you to stop being broken (I can’t wait for you//I can wait for you) I can’t wait for you to start being open (I can’t wait for you//I can wait for you) I can’t wait for you to start being open (I can’t wait for you) I can wait for you
