[Verse 1] I sat down with a pen in my hand Same old page, same shaking stand I wrote your name, then crossed it out 'Cause what I feel won't fit in lines [Verse 2] Tried "calm," tried "cool," tried "fine" Tried to make your ghost a rhyme But every word came out too small Like rain on glass, like nothing at all [Pre-Chorus] And I keep going back To the edge of that page 'Cause every first word Turns into your name [Chorus] A hundred drafts, still you A hundred drafts, still you I keep on writing What you do to me A hundred drafts, still you A hundred drafts, still you One look from you And I lose the line [Verse 3] You walk in, and the room leans close My pulse gets loud, my guard lets go I tried to spell it, tried to say How you turn my whole night into day [Pre-Chorus] And I keep going back To the edge of that page 'Cause every first word Turns into your name [Chorus] A hundred drafts, still you A hundred drafts, still you I keep on writing What you do to me A hundred drafts, still you A hundred drafts, still you One look from you And I lose the line [Bridge] Maybe that's the truth I never had to hide You don't need perfect words To know what's inside If I can't say it right Let my heart be loud It says your name It says it now [Final Chorus] A hundred drafts, still you A hundred drafts, still you I keep on writing What you do to me A hundred drafts, still you A hundred drafts, still you One look from you And I lose the line A hundred drafts, still you A hundred drafts, still you I keep on writing What you do to me A hundred drafts, still you A hundred drafts, still you One look from you And I lose the line
