Lyrics

How Long Till You Love Me

You say my name like it’s harmless
Like it doesn’t hit me at all
You talk about your someday
Like I’m not here when you call
I laugh it off like I’m steady
Like I don’t feel the wait
But every second I’m with you
Feels a little too late

I don’t need perfect
I just need truth

How long how long till you love me
How long till you say my name
How long till I stop pretending
I don’t feel this way
How long how long till you love me
How long till you’re sure it’s me
How long till I’m not just waiting
For what we could be

You lean in close then pull back
Like you’re scared of the fall
You say you don’t want to rush it
But you don’t move at all
I’m tired of being patient
Tired of reading signs
I don’t wanna be your almost
At the end of the line

Say it out loud
Or let me go

How long how long till you love me
How long till you say my name
How long till I stop pretending
I don’t feel this way
How long how long till you love me
How long till you’re sure it’s me
How long till I’m not just waiting
For what we could be

I don’t need forever promised
I just need something real
I can take a broken ending
I can’t take how this feels
If you’re never gonna choose me
Tell me straight tonight
I’d rather walk away hurting
Than stay here my whole life

How long how long till you love me
How long till you say my name
How long till I stop pretending
I don’t feel this way
How long how long till you love me
How long till you’re sure it’s me
How long till I’m not just waiting
For what we could be

How long how long till you love me
How long till you say my name
How long till I stop pretending
I don’t feel this way
How long how long till you love me
Or tell me it won’t be me
How long till I stop waiting
And let myself be free
