[Verse 1] I don't check my phone at midnight I don't read between your lines I don't rehearse every answer Before I say what's on my mind I don't watch the way you breathe To see if something's changed I don't lie awake beside you Trying to keep myself awake You don't ask me to be different You don't make me prove I'm here And somehow all the noise inside me Gets a little quieter [Pre-Chorus] I forgot what it was like To put my guard down To close my eyes And not wait for something to break [Chorus] I think I'm safe enough to sleep I think my heart can finally leave The room doesn't feel so large tonight When you're breathing next to me I don't need to know tomorrow I don't need to make it last For the first time in a long time I can let the moment pass I think I'm safe enough to sleep And that's enough for me [Verse 2] You don't fill the silence for me You don't panic when I'm quiet You just reach across the darkness And your hand finds mine And I know it sounds like nothing But you stayed when I went still You never tried to pull me open You just waited until I could Maybe love isn't fireworks Maybe it doesn't have to burn Maybe it's the quiet feeling That I don't have to earn [Pre-Chorus] I forgot what it was like To be known without explaining To show you every broken piece And watch you stay the same [Chorus] I think I'm safe enough to sleep I think my heart can finally leave The room doesn't feel so large tonight When you're breathing next to me I don't need to know tomorrow I don't need to make it last For the first time in a long time I can let the moment pass I think I'm safe enough to sleep And that's enough for me [Bridge] If I wake up frightened You don't have to fix it If I pull away You don't have to chase me If I don't know what I'm feeling You don't have to name it You can just stay here Until I find my way back And maybe that's what I needed Not someone to save me Just someone who doesn't make me Feel like I need saving [Breakdown] So leave the light on Just a little Let the morning find us here No promises No perfect ending Nothing I have to fear Just your hand Inside my hand And my head against your chest For once I don't need to wonder If I'm finally safe [Final Chorus] I think I'm safe enough to sleep I think my heart can finally leave The room doesn't feel so large tonight When you're breathing next to me I don't need to know tomorrow I don't need to make it last I can love you in this moment Without being scared of the past I think I'm safe enough to sleep I think I'm safe enough to dream And if tomorrow changes everything Tonight You're here with me
