lyrics

if i put a record on for you
would you stay close by me
even though i can only get so close to you?
just know there's something inside me thats trying

it puts me a little more at ease
in the middle of november when i hear our favorite christmas songs
playing on the radio when it's just starting to snow

and i know you're trying to sleep
but i got to stand up on my own two feet i
got to come down, got to get ready for the show
and i'll play these songs on repeat
yeah im just trying to make somebody out of me i
got to come down got to get ready to go
won't you take my hand and follow?
won't you take my hand?

and i cant imagine what it feels like
trapped in the corner of your room
waiting on somebody you thought you knew
to come around and return the last five years worth of love they stole

and now you're trapped inside of your own head
you got to get out but you're just running in circles instead
just sit down, talk it through
and chill out

and i know you're trying to sleep
but i got to stand up on my own two feet i
got to come down, got to get ready for the show
and i'll play these songs on repeat
yeah im just trying to make somebody out of me i
got to come down got to get ready to go
won't you take my hand and follow?
won't you take my hand and follow?
won't you take my hand?

i just want to stay here
i don't want to watch you go
i just want to watch it snow (x4)
