[Lead Vocal - JLaw's Voice Type -0 - male throughout] [Intro - intimate soft-rock keys] Don't take the future with you If you're walking out that door Take your clothes, take all your reasons Just don't take what we were living for [Disco pulse begins] Your coffee's cooling by the sink Your suitcase leaning by the chair You keep staring down into your phone Like that glow could make it easier We said some things we can't unsay Love never stays like when it’s new But every ordinary thing in here Still holds fingerprints of me and you [Electro-80s build - rising drums] So if your hand is on the handle And you've already made your choice Give me ten more seconds in this room Before the beat gets louder than my voice [DROP 1 - deep tropical house] Don't take the future with you Don't take the future with you I can lose tonight I can't lose every tomorrow too Don't take the future with you If you're taking your love Don't take the life We never got to do [Post-Drop] Not every tomorrow Not every tomorrow Take tonight if you need to Don't take every tomorrow [Verse 2 - deep house groove] Your toothbrush waiting next to mine Grocery list stuck to the fridge Half a bottle from last Friday Your jacket hanging off the chair Nothing here knows that we're done The room hasn't caught up yet Maybe that's why I'm still talking Like there's something left to protect All the years never fit inside One last talk inside this room With years waking up beside you I still gave you reasons not to trust what I could do Kept on saying I'd be better As if saying made it true That's the part I have to own tonight I had the choice – I didn't choose you [Glitch flourishes enter - harmony preserved] [Pre-Chorus] You're not only leaving tonight You're pulling years from under me All those plans we used to laugh about Suddenly mean everything I don't want another promise To be the reason that you stay I want the chance to live it different Let tomorrow prove what words can't say [Build 2] Don't take it Don't take it Don't take every tomorrow Not before I show you Who I can become [Breakdown - exposed vocal] Maybe loving you this hard Doesn't mean I earned a try Maybe nine years means you know me Well enough to know just why I should've been the safer place I should've carried more than words I should've been the man beside you Before losing you could hurt [Massive rising build] I know what I can change I know exactly where I failed I don't need you to believe a speech I need the chance to make it real So if you're going Look at me If you're going Say it clean I know I should've been this man Before you ever had to leave [Ultimate Pre-Drop - drums strip away] I can't undo the nights I made you wonder if I cared I can't ask nine years of loving me To make three years of hurt feel fair But if there's one last part of you That still remembers how this feels – [COMPLETE SILENCE] [Reverse inhale] [Sub heartbeat] [Granular vocal rise] [No drums - no bass] [PHOENIX DROP - biggest moment] DON'T TAKE THE FUTURE WITH YOU [Massive sub - huge kick - soaring synths] Don't take the future with you Don't take the future with you I can lose tonight I can't lose every tomorrow too Don't take the future with you If you're taking your love Let me prove What I can finally do [Post-Drop - euphoric] Not another promise Not another thing I say Let me be the man I told you I could've been yesterday Don't take every tomorrow Don't take every tomorrow If there's anything worth saving Let me earn it from tomorrow [Outro - opening piano returns] Your coffee's cooling by the sink Your suitcase waiting by the chair And for one more second You're still here
