What Would It Take
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.
Didn't say why you're leaving, yeah, we just hit a wall
Now I can't shake the feeling that this is all my fault
Staring up at the ceiling like it'll bring you home
But we both know it won't
Losing track of the hours that I spend in my bed
I'm losing the power to get out of my head
When it starts spinning downwards, so I face it alone
Yeah, I wish you'd come home
My heart beats out of my chest
Waiting for what happens next, yeah
I don't think it's normal
To be on the floor still shaking from the shower
Listening to old calls
Back when you would call me just to talk for hours, yeah
Something doesn't feel right
I can't make it feel right on my own, oh-oh
What would it take to make you come home?
I've been waiting for weeks now, I couldn't sleep for days
Everything we could be, how could you just walk away?
When I said, Please don't leave now, I'm taking all your weight
Yeah, like it would make you stay
My heart beats out of my chest
Waiting for what happens next, yeah
I don't think it's normal
To be on the floor still shaking from the shower
Listening to old calls
Back when you would call me just to talk for hours, yeah
Something doesn't feel right
I can't make it feel right on my own, oh-oh
What would it take to make you come home?
Yeah, my heart is beating out my body
Because I'm hurting and I need somebody
And now I'm calling from my hotel lobby
And I don't understand why you don't want me
Yeah, my heart is beating out my body
Because I'm hurting and I need somebody
And now I'm feeling in a hotel lobby
And I don't understand why you won't love me
I don't think it's normal
To be on the floor still shaking from the shower
Listening to old calls
Back when you would call me just to talk for hours, yeah
Something doesn't feel right
I can't make it feel right on my own, oh-oh
What would it take to make you come home?
What would it take to make me let go?
