[Verse 1] I know your laugh by heart But your hurt stays locked You say you’re fine in the dark Then you change the lock I bring you fresh-cut fruit You barely touch my hand I keep trying to read you Still I don’t understand [Pre-Chorus] Tell me where it starts What your silence needs Do you want soft words Or a little more time with me? [Chorus] Show me how to love you Show me how to stay Show me how to hold you When you push away Show me how to love you I’m here, I’m trying still If you let me in I will, I will [Verse 2] I see your shoes by the door Still worn from last night You came home with your pride And a split lip smile I don’t need perfect I need the real thing Tell me what breaks you And what makes you sing [Pre-Chorus] Tell me where it starts What your silence needs Do you want soft words Or a little more time with me? [Chorus] Show me how to love you Show me how to stay Show me how to hold you When you push away Show me how to love you I’m here, I’m trying still If you let me in I will, I will [Bridge] Maybe love is not a fire Maybe it’s a hand in the rain Maybe it’s your name in my mouth When you can’t say it again So lean on me Lean on me I’m not scared of the weight I just need to know the shape [Final Chorus] Show me how to love you Show me how to stay Show me how to hold you When you push away Show me how to love you I’m here, I’m trying still If you let me in I will, I will Show me how to love you (Show me how) Show me how to stay (Show me how) If you let me in I will, I will
