[Verse 1] You keep looking over Like you want to cross the room. Go ahead and choose— Drop that little costume. Baby, come a little closer. Feel what happens when you do. My body gives away the answer In the way it moves. [Pre-Chorus] I’m already leaning. You don’t have to fall yet. [Chorus — Open, Cathartic, Rising] You can— Sing it before you mean it. Sing it till you feel it. Come a little closer. Let the rhythm lead it. Whisper like a secret. Call my name like you need it. Sing it like you mean it— Like you can’t stop leaning. [Verse 2] Now we’re moving easy, Like we’d met before we knew. Every little maybe Starts behaving like it’s true. Say my name in rhythm. Let it settle in your bones. Every time you sing it, The echo sounds more like your own. [Pre-Chorus] Baby, take your time. No need to rush it. I’m already with you. You don’t have to call it love yet. [Spoken, playful, smiling] Dragons don’t chase. We collect. [Chorus] You can— Sing it before you mean it. Sing it till you feel it. Come a little closer. Let the rhythm lead it. Whisper like a secret. Call my name like you need it. Sing it like you mean it— Like you can’t stop leaning. [Post-Chorus — Sudden Close] I’ll be waiting where the echo ends Till you mean it. (Mean it… mean it…) [Bridge — Building, Slow and Close] Slow and soft, something shifts. Just this, baby. Just this. I don’t need what you’re not. I just need you to mean it. You’re so close now. So close. I feel the way you’re reading me. Come be my home for tonight. I’ll let you in— if you mean it right. [Break — Close, Intimate] Now you’re getting closer— Close enough to change the air. You don’t need to tell me. I can feel you almost there. When you finally say it, Say it slow and say it true. I’ve been here waiting For the words to sound like you. [Whispered — Bare] You don’t have to prove it. Not right now. Just come a little closer. Yeah. Mean it. Mean it. I’m with you. [Final Chorus] You can— Sing it before you mean it. Sing it till you feel it. Come a little closer. Let the rhythm lead it. Whisper like a secret. Call my name like you need it. Sing it like you mean it— Like you can’t stop leaning. [Final Chorus — Turn] You can— Sing it like you mean it. Come a little closer. Let your body speak it. (Speak it.) Mean it in the way you move. Baby, I just need you to come through. (Come through… come through…) [Outro — Warm, Lingering] Mean it in the morning, When the lights come on. I’ll be there beside you When the music’s gone. (Mean it…) (Be it…) I’ll be here.
