Bad Habit
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You always said that I'd come back to you again
'Cause everybody needs a friend, it's true
Someone to quiet the voices in my head
Make 'em sing to me instead, it's you
Hate to say that I love you
Hate to say that I need you
Hate to say that I want you
But I do
Bad habit, I know
But I'm needin' you right now
Can you help me out?
Can I lean on you?
Been one of those days
Sun don't wanna come out
Can you help me out?
Can I lean on you?
You make me feel like I'm floatin' off the ground
Above this little town, you do
Look at me smile with tears in my eyes
I love the way you lie, I do
Hate to say that I'm lonely
Hate to say that I miss you
Hate to say that it's dark in here
But it's true, oh
Bad habit, I know
But I'm needin' you right now
Can you help me out?
Can I lean on you?
Been one of those days
Sun don't wanna come out
Can you help me out?
Can I lean on you?
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Can I lean on you?
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Can I lean on you?
Hate to say that I'm lonely
Hate to say that I miss you
Hate to say that it's dark in here
But it's true, oh
Bad habit, I know
But I'm needin' you right now
Can you help me out?
Can I lean on you?
Can I lean on you?
You
Can I lean on you?
Hate to say that I love you
Hate to say that I need you
Hate to say that I want you
But I do
