Tiptoeing around my bedroom
Trying not to wake you up
I slip into your T-shirt still got all my make up on

Should I keep crying or say good morning
I caught you smiling when I was yawning
I shy away ‘cause I’m insecure
I’m not perfect but you tell me I’m beautiful

I need you, I need you close
I need you close enough to never know, never let go
Never let go of us, ‘cause I’m not here without you holding me up
‘Cause I, no don’t seek no temporary love

I did know with my parents I knew you’d get nervous but that’s OK
You always make my mom laugh, always make my dad feel so proud of me
Give me honestly give me time
Tell me secrets don’t tell me lies
‘Cause I’ll believe in it if you say it’s true

Hanging onto each word you say
Hold me close to you keep me safe
‘Cause I’m not perfect but I’m stronger with you

I need you, I need you close
I need you close enough to never know, never let go
Never let go of us, ‘cause I’m not here without you holding me up
‘Cause I, no don’t seek no temporary love

No don’t seek no temporary love
‘Cause I no don’t seek no temporary love

I need you, I need you close
I need you close enough to never know, never let go
Never let go of us, ‘cause I’m not here without you holding me up
‘Cause I, no don’t seek no temporary love

I need you, I need you close
I need you close enough to never know, never let go
Never let go of us, ‘cause I’m not here without you holding me up
‘Cause I, no don’t seek no temporary love
