I've been watching you from across the room
Like I might lose you if I breathe
Every word hangs in the silence
Every glance is begging me

I've learned how love can fracture
When we don't say what we feel
So tonight I'm done pretending
This is more than something real

I don't need a perfect moment
I just need you here
I've been strong for far too long
Now I'm finally clear

I don't want to let you go
Not now, not like this
I've already built my home
In the shape of your kiss

If the world feels heavy tonight
I'll hold us through the doubt
I don't want to let you go
I can't lose you now

(Ooh, stay)
(Ooh, stay)

I've loved in half-directions
I've loved with words unsaid
But every road I ever took
Still led me back to you instead

I don't want borrowed affection
I don't want love in disguise
I want your hands in the open
No fear left in our eyes

If loving you is dangerous
Then I'll take the fall
I've already lost myself
Trying not to feel at all

I don't want to let you go
Not now, not tonight
I've been walking through the dark
Just to stand in your light

If our hearts are on the edge
Let them figure it out
I don't want to let you go
I can't lose you now

I've been taught to love in pieces
To stay quiet, to behave
But I choose you without apology
I choose us, I choose brave

I don't want to let you go
I won't turn away
I've survived too many goodbyes
To let this one stay unsaid

If loving you is my truth
Then I'll say it out loud
I don't want to let you go
I can't lose you now

I don't want to let you go
I won't turn away
I've survived too many goodbyes
To let this one stay unsaid

If loving you is my truth
Then I'll say it out loud
I don't want to let you go
I can't lose you now

(Don't let go)
(I'm right here)
