[Verse 1] I came in late with my collar turned up You had that dress like a headline Laughin' with your glass half high I stayed by the wall, playin' it cool But my hands told on me When you said my name [Verse 2] I been a fool in a nice clean suit Talkin' big like I don't need nobody Truth got heavy in my chest tonight Every song in the room Got your shadow in it And I can't look away [Pre-Chorus] So I took a breath And let it break I ain't good at this But I'm good at fake One step closer That's all I got If I don't say it now I might lose my shot [Chorus] Baby, I need you I need you tonight I kept it locked up Way too long inside Baby, I need you I need you to know This heart been waitin' To let it all go [Verse 3] You turned around and your smile hit me Like Sunday sun on a front porch floor I tried to joke, tried to play that smooth But the words came spilling Out my mouth in pieces Like they had a mind of their own [Pre-Chorus] So I took a breath And let it break I ain't good at this But I can't fake One step closer That's all I got If I don't say it now I might lose my shot [Chorus] Baby, I need you I need you tonight I kept it locked up Way too long inside Baby, I need you I need you to know This heart been waitin' To let it all go [Bridge] If you walk away I'll still understand But I had to tell you What's in my hand It's shaky, it's honest It's all I own I don't want this night To send me home alone [Final Chorus] Baby, I need you I need you tonight I kept it locked up Way too long inside Baby, I need you I need you to know This heart been waitin' To let it all go Baby, I need you I need you tonight I said the truth out loud And it felt right Baby, I need you I need you to know This heart been waitin' To let it all go
