After 3 Seconds

[Intro]

Three seconds in

Floor starts to tilt

Clock on the wall

Dimming for you

[Verse 1]

You walk in, jacket on one arm

Lip gloss, phone face down

You say you “gotta be home soon”

But you sink deeper in my couch

Half laugh, eyes on my tattoo

Tracing letters you can’t read

You ask what they stand for

I just say “you gon’ see” (you gon’ see)

[Chorus]

After three seconds, I’m gone again

Every time you breathe, I fall further in

Late night talking turned to your legs on my waist

You say you’re scared, but you don’t hit the brakes

After three seconds of you this close

I’m losing my cool, but I keep you pulled

You say “take it slow,” but your hands disagree

Girl, you do the most to me

[Verse 2]

Your friends blowing up your lock screen

You flip it over on the rug

You say “they think I’m back at home”

Then you pour yourself more love

You ask me what I really call this

I say “right now it’s just us two”

You roll your eyes and pull my hoodie

Whisper, “stop talking, prove it” (yeah)

[Chorus]

After three seconds, I’m gone again

Every time you breathe, I fall further in

Late night talking turned to your legs on my waist

You say you’re scared, but you don’t hit the brakes

After three seconds of you this close

I’m losing my cool, but I keep you pulled

You say “take it slow,” but your hands disagree

Girl, you do the most to me

[Bridge]

You’re tracing constellations on my chest

Like you trying to redraw your past

You say “promise you won’t get attached”

But you’re the one asking that, asking that (oh)

[Chorus]

After three seconds, I’m gone again

Every time you breathe, I fall further in

Late night talking turned to your legs on my waist

You say you’re scared, but you don’t hit the brakes

After three seconds of you this close

I’m losing my cool, but I keep you pulled

You say “take it slow,” but your hands disagree

Girl, you do the most to me (to me)
