Surrender

(album: What If Nothing - 2017)

Another night in my new skin
Throw emotion to the wind
Just trying to find a face to make me feel something

And for all the pretty mouths and pretty words that turned me out
I just end up at your house
20 thousand leagues beneath the ocean
Oh

And I've been trying to keep my distance
(I still need it, I still need it)
So hard to keep my distance
(I still need it, I still need it)
And you make me wanna stay
'Cause you look so good
But I know you babe and this can't wait
Not one more touch, one more drink
One more minute, one more night

So I surrender
This is the moment I surrender

Now all the shapes I know are gone
Charts and maps I've drawn just get me lost
And I'm falling off the edge

And you make me wanna change
With the look on your face
'Cause I miss you babe but I can't stay
Not one more kiss, not one more fix
Not one more minute, one more night

So I surrender
This is the moment I surrender

Even now I let it in
Oh lord, I surrender
(I still need it, I can't stay
I still need it, I still can't stay)
I'm still trying to keep my distance
(Send me back in time, love me again)
Keep my distance
(I still need it, I still need it)
When I speak will you listen?

So send me back a thousand days
That first night at your old place
And tell me how it ends
I'd do it all again
For one more minute, one more night

If all that I could ever be
If all that I could ever be
Was the best ex lover of your life
If all that I could ever be
If all that I could ever be
Was the best ex lover of your life

(I still need it, I still need it)
So I surrender
(I still need it, I still need it)
This is the moment I surrender
(I still need it, I still need it)
Even now I let it in
(I still need it, I still need it)
Oh lord, I surrender
(I still need it, I can't stay
I still need it, I still can't stay)
This is the moment I surrender
(Send me back in time, love me again
I still need it, I still need it)

And all that I could ever be
(I still need it, I still need it
I still need it, I still need it)
And all that I could ever be
(I still need it, I still need it)
Was the best ex lover of your life
(I still need it, I still need it)

(Keep my distance
So hard to keep my distance
I'm still trying to keep my distance)
