I’m scared I’ll end up with someone I settle for, Goin' through motions, but always wantin’ more. Gettin’ close to thirty-five, it’s hittin’ different I need depth, not a spark that’s distant. I’ve had options, but most felt hollow, Nights full of noise, barely worth a follow. Then you came through, felt easy, real, Convos like secrets we forgot to seal. We was talkin’ every night, gettin’ close quick, Laughin’ ‘til the late hours, couldn’t fake this. Started feelin’ different, not the usual game, Then you pulled back like I did somethin’ strange. I get it, when it’s real, it can feel too much, You been hurt before, so now it’s hard to trust. But we both know Tinder swipes just killin’ the time, We got the kind of thing an algorithm can't find. You say you’re scared of waking up with the wrong one, Of learning too late that the right one’s gone. I hear it in your voice when you talk like that — Like you’d rather be lonely than fake where you’re at. Truth is… I feel that too, I've been runnin’ from someone who feels like you. It got too good, so I pulled away, 'Cause when it feels real, I get afraid. But if you’re sure, then I’m ready, Let’s stop running from something steady. No more doubts, no maybe, Let’s stop playing like we’re not already… Already in too deep. Already losing sleep. If you’re sure you won’t just leave, Say the word and I’ll believe. I don’t wanna write your name in a list of regrets, Another could’ve-been I’m tryin’ to forget. We’re both carryin' scars we didn’t deserve, Fixing hearts we didn’t even hurt. You’ve been patient with my highs and lows, Stayed soft with me when the silence grows. But love don't work if it’s one way deep, We both gotta leap if this is worth to keep. But if you’re sure, then I’m ready, Let’s stop running from something steady. No more doubts, no maybe, Let’s stop playing like we’re not already… Already in too deep. Already losing sleep. If you’re sure, I won’t just leave, Say the word and I’ll believe. Don’t shut the door just ‘cause you’re scared to feel, Not everything real is meant to break or heal. I’m standing here with both hands wide, Hoping you’ll meet me on the other side. You don’t have to promise forever tonight, But don’t hold me close if you’re not holding tight. But if you’re sure, then I’m ready, Heart unlocked, hold it steady. No more doubts, no maybe, Let’s stop playing like we’re not already… Already in too deep. Already yours to keep. If you’re sure this can succeed Say the word and I’ll believe
