You fall asleep like it's nothing
Like this whole day didn't feel like a gift
But me?
I can't stop staring at you
like you'll fade if I blink too long
I used to think love was supposed to feel loud
fast, messy, burnin' like hell
But you?
You're like quiet gravity
You pull me in without tryin'
I didn't know I needed that
I didn't know I needed you
You sit next to me
like it's not a big deal
like this isn't the first time
someone chose to stay
I keep tryna play it cool
Still joke, still tease
But inside?
Every time you look at me
like I'm just worth being here
it fucks me up a little
In a good way
You made me believe I don't gotta prove I deserve you
You just...
Put your hand on mine and that was it
No cape
No performance
Just...you
And somehow
that was enough for me to stop running
Maybe that's what love is
Not who makes your heart race
but who slows it down
long enough to make you stay
You fold your laundry like it matters
Like small things mean something when I'm around
You steal the covers
Leave socks everywhere
And somehow
it's the first time this space has ever felt like home
I used to sleep to forget the day
Now I stay awake
just to keep you a little longer
You made me believe I don't gotta prove I deserve you
You just...
Put your hand on mine and that was it
No cape
No performance
Just...you
And somehow
that was enough for me to stop running
Maybe that's what love is
Not who makes your heart race
but who slows it down
long enough to make you stay
