[Verse 1]

Sleep in the night

Don't bother hoping

For me to sacrifice my time

Protecting your peace

Means losing you sleep

Just to daydream

I have my guard up

I'll admit it

Trusting you makes me lose my mind

I'm sorry to ask

Can you do with that

Or maybe just don't


[Pre-Chorus]

Write my name on your breath, let me go

But I don't want to be without you

Maybe I'm just meant to be alone

'Cause I don't want to hurt you

And just leave you feeling like we're something more


[Chorus]

There's nothing new with you (Ooh, oh-oh)

I've felt this way with others before (Others before)

So keep it simple

Don't make me want you more

It's okay, we'll be fine, it'll all be alright

Just please don't say I love you and then

Say goodbye


[Verse 2]

I'm keeping my ego on the surface

Letting you tread in my memories

You're so good to me, your pride is so weak

How can you be, so

Gentle and a pacifist, your nonsense is my happiness

By the way, you've seen all my scars

Nobody's made it this far

Still I'm telling you, please don't


[Pre-Chorus]

Write my name on your breath, let me go

But I don't want to be without you

Maybe I'm just meant to be alone (Alone)


[Chorus]

There's nothing new with you (Ooh, ooh-ooh)

I've felt this way with others before (Others before)

So keep it simple

Don't make me want you more

It's okay, we'll be fine, it'll all be alright

Just please don't say I love you and then

Say goodbye


[Bridge]

So, here's to hoping it's not you

Who will walk out of that door

I'm sorry for the way I'm so insecure

It's okay, we'll be fine, it'll all be alright

Just please don't say I love you and then

Say goodbye


[Post-Chorus]

Du-du-du-du-du-du-du

Du-du-du-du-du-du-du

Du-du-du-du-du-du-du

Du-du-du-du-du-du

Du-du-du-du-du-du-du

Du-du-du-du-du-du-du

Du-du-du-du-du-du-du

Du-du-du-du-du-du


[Outro]

I'm sorry, please don't be without me

If I give you my soul

Then you'll never know

Silence like we're at a party

I'll need you around me

Never alone
