Love Me

Verse 1

You leave your jacket on my chair

Like a question you forgot to ask

I keep the window open just in case

You’re better at leaving than you think

But you always come back

Pre-Chorus

I’m not asking you to stay forever

I’m just asking you to stay tonight

You don’t have to call it something

Just don’t call it nothing — that ain’t right

Chorus

Love me like you mean it or don’t touch me at all

Love me in the daylight, not just when the dark falls

I’ve been half-wanted enough for one life

So love me like you mean it

Or walk out that door, it’s fine

Verse 2

You say I’m complicated

Like that’s a flaw you found

But you keep coming back to complicated

Every time your easy life lets you down

Pre-Chorus

I’m not asking you to change completely

I’m just asking you to show your hand

You don’t have to say the word forever

Just say enough that I can understand

Chorus

Love me like you mean it or don’t touch me at all

Love me in the daylight, not just when the dark falls

I’ve been half-wanted enough for one life

So love me like you mean it

Or walk out that door, it’s fine

Bridge

Maybe you’re scared

Maybe I am too

But scared and silent

Is just slow goodbye

So say something true

Say something true

Final Chorus

Love me like you mean it — don’t make it a performance

Love me in the silence when there’s nothing left to prove

I’m not asking for a promise carved in stone

Just give me something real

Or give me room to go

Outro

It’s fine, it’s fine, it’s fine…

(until it isn’t)
