Say It Like You Mean It

Verse

Six a.m. gold on the kitchen floor

Your shoes by the door, you're not leaving anymore

I poured two coffees, wrote your name in steam

Wrote it twice just to make it seem real

Radio's playing that song we stole

Turned the volume up, let the neighbors know

You caught my eye like you catch a spark

Held it right there in the dark

Pre-Chorus

So if this is real, then prove it's true

Don't just whisper, don't just move through

Stand right here where the light comes in

Chorus

Say it like you mean it, out loud, so it lands

Say it like you mean it, put it in my hands

This feeling's got a heartbeat, I can hear it start

Say it like you mean it, don't just say the part

Verse

Bus stop, midnight, neon in the rain

You wrote it on my palm so it wouldn't wash away

Three words, one promise, folded like a note

I keep it in my coat

The city's loud but you're the clearest sound

Every corner that we turn, you turn it around

I'm not asking for forever, just for now

Just for how you say it out loud

Pre-Chorus

So if this is real, then prove it's true

Don't just whisper, don't just move through

Stand right here where the light comes in

Chorus

Say it like you mean it, out loud, so it lands

Say it like you mean it, put it in my hands

This feeling's got a heartbeat, I can hear it start

Say it like you mean it, don't just say the part

Bridge

Maybe I'm the one who's slow to learn

That the quiet ones still burn

You don't need the words to shout

Your hands already spelled it out

Chorus

Say it like you mean it, out loud, so it lands

Say it like you mean it, put it in my hands

This feeling's got a heartbeat, I can hear it start

Say it like you mean it, don't just say the part

Say it like you mean it, I already know

But I want to keep this feeling, so let it show
