[Verse 1] You came in with your bags half packed Still had my name in the back of your mind Said you needed air, said you needed space But you kept your hand in mine I saw that look in your eyes that day Like you were already halfway gone Why you keep your coat on the chair? Why you move like you can't stay long? [Pre-Chorus] If you want out, say it clean Don't let your body lie to me You hold me close, then pull away What are you running from today? [Chorus] Why take off? Why take off? When you keep coming back to me Why take off? Why take off? If you're still where you wanna be Stay a little Say a little Don't leave me on the edge Why take off? Why take off? When your heart still stays in bed [Verse 2] I left the porch light on for you Even when you took your time You moved like a door half-open Like I was crossing your mind I know love can scare you, baby I know the world gets loud But you don't have to disappear on me Just to work it out [Pre-Chorus] If you want out, say it clean Don't let your body lie to me You hold me close, then pull away What are you running from today? [Chorus] Why take off? Why take off? When you keep coming back to me Why take off? Why take off? If you're still where you wanna be Stay a little Say a little Don't leave me on the edge Why take off? Why take off? When your heart still stays in bed [Bridge] If you need time, I can wait But don't make love feel fake Don't pack your tears in a suitcase Then smile like it's okay Tell me now Tell me true Is it me, or is it you? I can handle the hurt Just don't leave me guessing first [Chorus] Why take off? Why take off? When you keep coming back to me Why take off? Why take off? If you're still where you wanna be Stay a little Say a little Don't leave me on the edge Why take off? Why take off? When your heart still stays in bed
