Some days the sighs are more than words can say But they get lighter when you look my way Just a simple "welcome home" from you And the knots inside start coming loose Nothing special, nothing new at all But I feel my heart begin to fall The things I never want to let go of Have no shape, they’re just made of love I want you to stay soft, just the way you are The way you laugh, the way you’re stubborn from afar These feelings that I can’t quite put in words Are reaching out to you, waiting to be heard I want you to stay just the same forever Your morning habits, how we’re here together We don’t need a promise or a sign Just stay right here with your hand in mine I tell too many lies, say I’m doing fine But you see the truth in every single line You sit beside me, don’t have to ask me why Silence like a blanket underneath the sky Even on the nights I cannot smile Your voice calls my name for a little while The things I want to cherish most of all Might just slip away if I let them fall I want you to stay soft, just the way you are That sleepy face you show when you let down your guard All the parts of you that you don't even try to hide Become a light that’s glowing deep inside I want you to stay just the same forever The way you’re strong, the way we cry together If I said "I love you," it might break the spell So I’ll keep this wish where only I can tell If the day should come, slow and steady now That we start to drift, though I don’t know how If I can hold onto how I feel today That’s enough for me, it’ll be okay (Ah) I want you to stay soft, just the way you are The way you laugh, the way you’re stubborn from afar These feelings that I can’t quite put in words Are overflowing, waiting to be heard I want you to stay just the same forever Your morning habits, how we’re here together We don’t need a promise or a sign Just stay right here, keep your heart in mine Just like that, I can breathe again Just like that, I’m home within my skin
