[Intro]

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh


[Verse 1]

You know me the best

You know my worst, see me hurt, but you don't judge

That right there is the scariest feeling

Opening and closing up again

I've been hurt, so I don't trust

Now here we are, staring at the ceiling


[Pre-Chorus]

I've said those words before, but it was a lie

And you deserve to hear them a thousand times


[Chorus]

If all it is is eight letters

Why is it so hard to say?

If all it is is eight letters

Why am I in my own way?

Why do I pull you close?

And then ask you for space

If all it is is eight letters

Why is it so hard to say?


[Post-Chorus]

Ooh, ooh

Ooh-oh, oh, oh, yeah


[Verse 2]

Isn't it amazing how almost evеry line on our hands align?

When your hand's in mine

It's likе I'm whole again, isn't that a sign?

I should speak my mind


[Pre-Chorus]

I've said those words before, but it was a lie

And you deserve to hear them a thousand times


[Chorus]

If all it is is eight letters

Why is it so hard to say?

If all it is is eight letters

Why am I in my own way?

Why do I pull you close?

And then ask you for space

If all it is is eight letters

Why is it so hard to say? (Woah, oh yeah)


[Post-Chorus]

Ooh, ooh

Ooh-oh, ah-ooh


[Bridge]

(Ooh, ooh)

When I close my eyes

It's you there in my mind

(Ooh, ooh)

When I close my eyes


[Chorus]

If all it is is eight letters

Why is it so hard to say?

If all it is is eight letters

Why am I in my own way?

Why do I pull you close?

And then ask you for space

If all it is is eight letters

Why is it so hard to say? (Why is it so hard?)


[Outro]

When I close my eyes (Ooh)

It's you there in my mind (It's you there in my mind)

When I close my eyes (Ooh)

If all it is is eight letters

When I close my eyes (When I close my eyes; Ooh)

It's you there in my mind (It's you there in my mind)

When I close my eyes (When I close my eyes; Ooh)

If all it is is eight letters
