[Verse 1] I read your face before I speak Turn every pause into a test I make a joke, I make it sweet And wait to see if I passed yet [Pre-Chorus] If you choose me, I can settle If you praise me, I can stay But the hunger keeps on asking For another yes today [Chorus] Want me, want me—say it plain Tell me I’m your favorite name I keep reaching, counting every sign Trying to make your wanting feel like mine Want me, want me—hold that thought I’m so tired of being bought By the little rush of being seen Then waking up still needing what it means [Verse 2] I learn the laugh that gets your smile I take your side before you ask I turn myself to fit the moment Call that closeness, call it craft [Pre-Chorus] If you choose me, I can settle If you praise me, I can stay But the hunger keeps on asking For another yes today [Chorus] Want me, want me—say it plain Tell me I’m your favorite name I keep reaching, counting every sign Trying to make your wanting feel like mine [Bridge] Maybe love can’t plug the hollow Maybe cheers can’t make me whole I can hear the need beneath me I can meet it, not control [Outro] Want me—then I’ll try to want me too
