Lyrics
Hey boy I think it's time we have a heart to heart I'm feeling lonely every time we spend the night apart I find myself looking at my phone every time it buzzes Feeling disappointed when it's not your name
I know this might be coming at you sort of premature But best believe I spent enough time knowing this for sure You fill my lungs with air I never even breathed before Can I be yours alone?
I've been needing you to be mine I'll run at a hundred miles As long as I get to keep you by my side
Been looking for somebody honest who would understand I feel like I can just surrender when you hold my hand Don't wanna waste another day without reminding you That you are everything I need and I'm in love with you
The sun shines a little less when you are far away And honestly sometimes it's hard to make it through the day If it were anyone else it would not be worth it and I'm going in and I'll be there until the bitter end
I've been needing you to be mine I'll run at a hundred miles As long as I get to keep you by my side
Hey boy I think it's time we have a heart to heart I'm feeling lonely every time we spend the night apart Don't wanna waste another day without reminding you That you are everything I need and I'm in love with you
I've been needing you to be mine I'll run at a hundred miles As long as I get to keep you by my side.
