Please Be Here Lyrics - Singles - The Loved Ones

Our shadows dance on the bedroom wall 

if only this night could last a little longer 

for now I'll hold you close and pretend that I'm not leaving 

I know your scars start to feel more sore 

on nights like this where I can't bear to face 

the fact that I'm not sure which road makes sense to take 

It's clear to me that you're the one 

who won't tell lies or turn tail and run 

I know you're tired of feeling like we're under the gun 

just hold on tight my lonely one 

This isn't quite what you bargained for 

I know it stings to always prop up on someone whose own 

selfish heart seems to be the one that's beating 

But we would die if we just keep score 

just give me time I know it feels like you've put 

everything on hold but I swear I'll make this right 

Heaven knows I need you here 

but hell's stoking up my hopeless fear 

oh god please just give this purgatory a little rest
