[Verse 1] I kept your name in my throat Like a stone in my coat All this time At the edge of the day You saw me laugh it away You saw me look the other way But my eyes Never learned how to stay [Pre-Chorus] Now the sky is turning gold And I’m tired of what I hold If I don’t say it now I might never say it out loud [Chorus] I want you close I want you close (close) I’ve been holding on Too long, too long (too long) I was wrong, I know I was wrong, I know (I know) Let me be honest now Let me be honest now [Verse 2] I wore a smile like a shield But you knew what I concealed Underneath All my pretty little plans I left your love on the shelf Tried to carry it by myself Now I see I was breaking my own hands [Pre-Chorus] And the sky is turning gold And I’m tired of what I hold If I don’t say it now I might never say it out loud [Chorus] I want you close I want you close (close) I’ve been holding on Too long, too long (too long) I was wrong, I know I was wrong, I know (I know) Let me be honest now Let me be honest now [Bridge] If you need time I understand I made a home Out of trembling hands But if you’re still there When the night comes down I’ll bring my heart And lay it down [Chorus] I want you close I want you close (close) I’ve been holding on Too long, too long (too long) I was wrong, I know I was wrong, I know (I know) Let me be honest now Let me be honest now [Outro] Let me be honest now (be honest) Let me be honest now (be honest) At the end of the day I just want you to stay
