Lyrics

Verse 1
I set two plates down
then I eat alone
Your name in my mouth
like a broken phone

I keep one side warm
just in case you come
Every little room
feels too big now, love

Pre-Chorus
If you saw my heart
you’d know it’s still lit
Even after all
I’ve been torn to bits

I don’t need forever
I just need tonight
Someone to hold me
and make it feel right

Chorus
Wish somebody’d love me
love me like I’m enough
Wish somebody’d hold me
when my world gets rough
Wish somebody’d choose me
choose me like the first one
I’m right here, baby
wish somebody’d love me

Wish somebody’d love me
deep from the inside
Wish somebody’d see me
and not walk by
I got so much tenderness
buried in my chest
Wish somebody’d love me
and bring me back to life

Verse 2
I still save your smile
in the back of my mind
Like a folded note
I can’t stop trying to find

I wear my hurt so well
but it cuts so deep
I laugh for the room
then I fall asleep

Pre-Chorus
If you touched my hand
you’d feel what I’ve hid
All the little cracks
and the dreams I lived

I don’t want perfect
I just want true
A soft place to land
and a heart that stays with you

Wish somebody’d love me
deep from the inside
Wish somebody’d see me
and not walk by
I got so much tenderness
buried in my chest
Wish somebody’d love me
and bring me back to life

Bridge
If you come this close
I won’t run away
I got all this ache
I don’t know how to say

Take the heavy parts
take the quiet fear
Tell me I’m still wanted
tell me you’re here

Final Chorus
Wish somebody’d love me
love me like I’m enough
Wish somebody’d hold me
when my world gets rough
Wish somebody’d choose me
choose me like the first one
I’m right here, baby
wish somebody’d love me

Wish somebody’d love me
deep from the inside
Wish somebody’d see me
and not walk by
I got so much tenderness
buried in my chest
Wish somebody’d love me
and bring me back to life
