Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Fresh white flowers and a new tea light

Nine cups of water, still water

Soon, I'll see your face

Don't know why I ever thought you were far away

I shoulda known better

[PreChorus]

If I set a flame and I call your name

I'll fix you a plate, we can go to dinner

We can share a meal your way

And I'll play you the songs that you used to play

[Chorus]

So I put you on the altar

Stay just a little bit longer (Whoa)

Laid it out for ya

Thought I felt you before

Now you're closer

Closer (Whoa)

[Verse 2]

So I put you on the altar

Stay just a little bit longer (Whoa)

Laid it out for ya

Thought I felt you before

Now you're closer

Closer (Whoa, whoa)

[Verse 3]

Holding on to things you told me

Holding on to dreams you showed me

Holding on to anything from you

That you've been leaving here

Now I believe, I swear

I can smell your perfume

Picking up your signal like a phone booth

Keeping you alive and I do it 'cause I want to

[PreChorus]

If I set a flame and I call your name

I'll fix you a plate, we can go to dinner

We can share a meal your way

And I'll play you the songs that you used to play

[Chorus]

So I put you on the altar

Stay just a little bit longer (Whoa)

Laid it out for ya

Thought I felt you before

Now you're closer

Closer (Whoa)

[Verse 4]

So I put you on the altar

Stay just a little bit longer (Whoa)

Laid it out for ya

Thought I felt you before

Now you're closer

Closer (Whoa, whoa)

(Closer)
