Holding Us Close

Hallway hush, deadbolt click Your shoes by the door,

my heart goes quick The room feels small

When you look at me like that

Window shut, phone face-down The whole world fades to the next room

sound One held breath

And we don’t turn back

Nobody else in here

Just your name in my ear

The floorboard creaks

And I lean in close

I think we’re alone now

I think we’re alone now

Hold me right here

Don’t let go

I think we’re alone now

I think we’re alone now

Say it again

So I know

Kettle cold, night growing late We trace old scars and the lines

on a plate You laugh too soft (hahaha) Like you’re trying not

to wake the walls Your hand in mine,

slow and sure Like you’ve done this a thousand times before

One small spark

And the rest can fall

Nobody else in here

Just your name in my ear

The floorboard creaks

And I lean in close

I think we’re alone now

I think we’re alone now

Hold me right here

Don’t let go

I think we’re alone now

I think we’re alone now

Say it again

So I know

If the world comes back

Let it wait outside

For one more minute

For one more night

You and me

In the afterglow

Nothing to

prove

Just staying close

{tender guitar

solo} I think we’re alone now

I think we’re alone now

Hold me right here

Don’t let go

I think we’re alone now

I think we’re alone now

Say it again

So I know

I think we’re alone now

I think we’re alone now And if you feel it Then don’t

let go {music slowly fades}
