Lyrics
## **“Say It Again”**
**Verse 1**
You don’t raise your voice, you just go still
Like you’re choosing every word you spill
I’m reading pauses like they’re lines
Trying to hear what’s in between the lines
Your hand’s right there but it feels far
Like you left it in a different part
Of yourself I used to know
Before everything got careful, slow
---
**Pre-Chorus**
You say my name like it might break
Like you don’t trust what it could change
---
**Chorus**
If you mean it, say it again
Don’t let it fade when it settles in
I don’t need forever right now
Just something honest I can hold down
If it’s real, don’t let it drift
Don’t dress it up, don’t soften it
You got close, don’t hesitate
If you mean it… say it again
---
**Verse 2**
There’s a distance in your eyes tonight
Like you’re here but not in real time
And I don’t know what you’re protecting
Me from you or you from me guessing
We’ve been good at almosts lately
Half confessions, “maybe, maybe”
I’m tired of the in-between
Of what you say and what you mean
---
**Pre-Chorus**
You get so close then pull away
Like truth’s a risk you won’t take
---
**Chorus**
If you mean it, say it again
Don’t let it fade when it settles in
I don’t need forever right now
Just something honest I can hold down
If it’s real, don’t let it drift
Don’t dress it up, don’t soften it
You got close, don’t hesitate
If you mean it… say it again
---
**Bridge**
No, I’m not asking for a promise
Just don’t make me read between
Every silence, every comment
Every almost in your speech
Let it land, let it be simple
Let it sound like how it is
If it’s love, don’t make it subtle
I’m still listening…
---
**Outro Chorus (stripped)**
So if you mean it, say it again
Even if it don’t make sense
I’d rather hear it wrong than wait
On something you won’t say
