Hands On

[Intro] (soft clean guitars, low ambient swell) You climbed into bed like you already knew My heart raced, but stayed true That smile cut deeper than it should Left me silent when I thought I could [Verse 1] A single look and I was hard Foreplay through wordplay is my way You said love me now like it was nothing While something in me started running That was last night Another one that won’t leave my mind Everything after Feels like overtime [Pre-Chorus] I don’t know if I can hold this high The drop looks longer every time [Chorus] Hands on One on your heart, one around your throat This is how I keep you close Love that doesn’t ask, it already knows Hands on Promise in the pressure, truth in the hold I won’t let go Even when the night turns cold [Verse 2] You still look at me the same way Eyes half-closed, already asking Lips against my ear, voice low and sure Telling me exactly what you need Time keeps moving But you stay right here Under me Everything else disappears [Pre-Chorus] I don’t know if I can hold this high The drop looks longer every time [Chorus] Hands on One on your heart, one around your throat This is how I keep you close Love that doesn’t ask, it already knows Hands on Promise in the pressure, truth in the hold I won’t let go Even when the night turns cold [Bridge] Thick and thin, lose or win I’m still the one who stays Night after night, the same hunger It never fades Some things once mattered Now they don’t compare You’re the only weight I want to bear [Breakdown] Hands on… Feel the beat beneath my palm Hands on… Feel the control that keeps you calm One hand feels the life in you The other makes sure you feel it too This is trust on a deeper level This is how I make it true [Final Chorus] Hands on One on your heart, one around your throat This is how I keep you close Love that doesn’t ask, it already knows Hands on Promise in the pressure, truth in the hold I won’t let go I’ll never let go [Outro] (fading guitars and soft layered vocals) Hands on… Hands on… One on your heart One around your throat Still right here. Still not leaving.
