Close Enough To Touch

[Verse 1]

You’re on the couch in my old sweatshirt

Feet tucked under like you always do

Talking ‘bout the plans we’re afraid to say out loud

And how it scares you too

You trace a line on my hand so slowly

Laugh when I say I’m not afraid

But I’ve been saving all these words behind my teeth

Hoping they don’t fade

[Pre-Chorus]

How did we end up right here

Halfway between friends and something more

If I move an inch closer

Would you open up that door

[Chorus]

Are we close enough to touch it

This feeling hanging in the air

If I lean into the moment

Will I find you already there

‘Cause my heart’s been saying your name for months

And I can’t keep acting like it’s just us

Killing time

Killing nights for fun

When we’re close

Close enough to touch

[Verse 2]

You steal my fries

Call it “rent for staying”

Play me songs you know I’ll like

We argue over movies we’ve both seen twice

Just to fill the night

Your head falls back and you miss the ending

I pause the screen

Just watch you breathe

Every little rise and fall is pulling me

Deeper underneath

[Pre-Chorus]

How did we end up right here

Sharing blankets

Sharing all our fears

If I tell you what I’m thinking

Will it pull you in or disappear

[Chorus]

Are we close enough to touch it

This feeling hanging in the air

If I lean into the moment

Will I find you already there

‘Cause my heart’s been saying your name for months

And I can’t keep acting like it’s just us

Killing time

Killing nights for fun

When we’re close

Close enough to touch

Close enough to touch

Close enough to touch (yeah)

[Bridge]

What if this is everything we wanted

And we’re too afraid to call it love (oh)

What if every almost that we wasted

Was just leading us to us

[Chorus]

Are we close enough to touch it

This truth that’s been between the lines

If I cross that little distance

Will you pull me through to your side

‘Cause my heart’s been saying your name for months

And I’m done pretending it’s just us

Killing time like it won’t mean much

When we’re close

Close enough to touch

Close enough to touch (yeah)
