You understand my hesitation

Why I get quiet sometimes

All the ways I've been conditioned

What I think is real, you redesign

It's how you catch me every time.

I rewind our conversations

Listen between every line

To relieve my superstition

I only reveal

It's only a sign

That it all adds up this time.

I've been holding my hopes waist-high

So they don't tumble down

And keep me yesterday-bound

I've been holding my breath

Cause I don't want to be let down

But we're too far for that now

So I'm saying it out loud

It's different now.

I don't need special attention

Just as long as you are mine

Then there's no reason to mention

What came before

The who or the why

Cause it all adds up this time.

I've been holding my hopes waist-high

So they don't tumble down

And keep me yesterday-bound

I've been holding my breath

Cause I don't want to be let down

But we're too far for that now

So I'm saying it out loud

It's different now.

Didn't mean to push away

Make you think I'm so insane

It isn't gonna haunt me no more (anymore, anymore)

Stay forever and a day

You'll never have to ask again, no way

Cause I can say.

I've been holding my hopes waist-high

So they don't tumble down

And keep me yesterday-bound

I've been holding my breath

Cause I don't want to be let down

But we're too far for that now

So I'm saying it out loud

It's different now (now)
