Lyrics
Looks pure to me (whoo)
There's a light I see (oh)
Yeah (oh)
Won't you come with me? (Ah, me)
Still placed on the side of the knife, I could sharpen my mind
And light up, that's my touch
We're alive
But I missed you for the longest time (time)
When you were away, I couldn't take it at all
No, I was not alright (I was not alright, no, baby)
Whenever you're coming back
Just make sure that you're coming back to me
Save it up and see
Yeah, uh
Do what you do, you could run away
But the less I see you, more I'm feeling pain, oh yeah
Sending me more deranged, oh
Make me your defender, I'll be the one
That's not going anywhere
There's a side they'll never see, no, no, way
I hope we're never there again, I didn't like it much, my friend
We can work on what we have here, or we could just play it pretend
I'll try it, but before I choose to go
Won't you let me know?
Are you coming with me, baby? Will you hold my hand?
We fell in love by accident, we never made a plan
We went the long way around, it finally made sense
I love you more than ever, I don't care what anyone says
Stay with me in real life, not only in my head
You look so pure to me, so, baby, let's just go ahead
(Go ahead, go ahead, go ahead)
Said you look pure to me (oh)
You're the light I need (oh), I need (oh)
Would you lay with me?
And I'm still placed in the seat beside you
Stayin' right here feels sublime, tryna be present these days
But I'm always contemplating, open up on a daily
Might repeat what I'm saying
Predictable, but I'll be your companion
Make me the one that's all yours in every way
Show a side that only I know, my babe
We've been through more than I would ever choose to take
But honestly, I wouldn't want it any other way
And all we have is right now, it's just you and I some place
We could leave without a trace (let me know)
Are you coming with me baby? Will you hold my hand?
We fell in love by accident, we never made a plan
We got turned upside down and it didn't make much sense
But I love you more than ever, we'll never go through that again
Stay with me now, if you please, I'll put this song to bed
You are so pure to me, and that's all
