Please Be Here

Our shadows dance on the bedroom wall If only this night could last a little longer For now I'll hold you close and pretend that I'm not leaving I know your scars start to feel more sore On nights like this where I can't bear to face The fact that I'm not sure which road makes sense to take It's clear to me that you're the one Who won't tell lies or turn tail and run I know you're tired of feeling like we're under the gun Just hold on tight my lonely one This isn't quite what you bargained for I know it stings to always prop up on someone whose own Selfish heart seems to be the one that's beating But we would die if we just keep score Just give me time I know it feels like you've put Everything on hold but I swear I'll make this right Heaven knows I need you here But hell's stoking up my hopeless fear Oh god please just give this purgatory a little rest
