[Intro] Give me half a second I'll find something [Verse 1] I know when the room needs lifting I can catch it before it falls Give me an awkward silence I'll have laughter off the walls I know the look before the punchline I know exactly when to wait Half a beat Then let it land Timing is everything [Pre-Chorus] And I love that sound I really do That moment when the whole room moves Maybe that's why I got so good At getting there before the truth [Chorus] Keep it moving Keep them laughing Never leave the silence long I can turn the weight to something lighter Before anybody knows it's gone I know how to fill a room I know exactly what to do But if the room goes quiet Will you still want me here with you? [Verse 2] I've made a joke out of bad timing Made an entrance out of being late Turned the thing I didn't want to answer Into something we could celebrate And sometimes funny is just funny Sometimes laughter's simply good But sometimes I hear the joke arrive Before I've even understood [Pre-Chorus] There it is Right on time Ready before I even choose Everybody gets the punchline I get somewhere else to move [Chorus] Keep it moving Keep them laughing Never leave the silence long I can turn the weight to something lighter Before anybody knows it's gone I know how to fill a room I know exactly what to do But if the room goes quiet Will you still want me here with you? [Bridge] What if I don't make this lighter? What if I don't know the line? What if I let the question reach me Before I give us somewhere else to hide? What if nothing funny happens? What if I just stay? Would you look for someone more entertaining? Would you look away? [Final Chorus] I know how to fill a room I know how to make it move I know laughter can be honest I know funny can be true But I don't have to fill this moment Just because I know how to If the room goes quiet I could stay here with you [Outro] No punchline I'm still here
