I've been standing in the silence of the night
Reading signs that you don't say out loud
Every moment feels like walking on a line
Trying hard not to let my heart fall down

I don't need perfection, I don't need control
Just a little truth before I lose it all
If you feel it too, don't let it fade away
Say it now, don't turn your eyes away

Give me something I can hold tonight
Just a reason to believe we're right
I don't need the world, I don't need the sky
All I'm asking for is something real this time

Every promise echoes in my mind
Like a rhythm that I can't ignore
I've been waiting for a sign in your eyes
Something telling me there's still more

I don't need forever carved in stone
Just to know I'm not here on my own
If your heart is calling out my name
Let it burn, don't be afraid

Give me something I can hold tonight
Just a reason to believe we're right
I don't need the world, I don't need the sky
All I'm asking for is something real this time

If the night falls down on us again
I'll be standing in the pouring rain
Say you'll stay when everything shakes
Say my love is not a mistake

Give me something I can hold tonight
Just a reason to believe we're right
I don't need the world, I don't need the sky
All I'm asking for is something real this time
