Hold Me Close

Intro

Mm-mm, ah-ah

(uh-huh) ooh, ooh

Verse

Late night, city soft and slow (soft and slow)

You call my name like a secret only I know

Velvet words on a low-lit line

Fingers trace the spaces where your doubts hide

We move like we’re stealing time, uh

Breath on my skin, your whisper close — come closer

Pre-chorus

You tilt the world and I tilt back (yeah)

Pull me in, don't let me crack

Slow motion, closer, feel the sway

Just one look and I don't need to say

Chorus

Hold me close, don't let go (hold me close)

Hold me close, don't let go (hold me close)

Stay here, let the night unfold (stay here)

Naega neowa — keep me close, keep me close

Hold me close, don't let go (ooh)

Hold me close, don't let go (ah-ah)

Stay here, let the night unfold (stay)

Naega neowa — keep me close, keep me close

Verse

Soft laugh, you steal the minor key (minor key)

Your shadow fills the spaces next to me

Words slow down, the world thins out

I trace the map of how you breathe, no doubt

Lipstick promises on a paper cup

We sip the quiet until the sun shows up

Pre-chorus

Your hand finds mine, like it was always home (always)

We hum the tune that we both know

Ocean eyes, a low-lit glow

Say the thing that keeps us slow

Chorus

Hold me close, don't let go (hold me close)

Hold me close, don't let go (hold me close)

Stay here, let the night unfold (stay here)

Naega neowa — keep me close, keep me close

Hold me close, don't let go (ooh)

Hold me close, don't let go (ah-ah)

Stay here, let the night unfold (stay)

Naega neowa — keep me close, keep me close

Bridge

(Oh) Time moves softer when you’re near (softer)

(Oh) Speak in pauses, I can hear (I can hear)

Lean in, let the world dissolve (ah)

Two shadows learning to revolve

Mmm, (mm) stay, stay, stay

Mmm, (mm) close, close, close

Chorus

Hold me close, don't let go (hold me close)

Hold me close, don't let go (hold me close)

Stay here, let the night unfold (stay here)

Naega neowa — keep me close, keep me close

Hold me close, don't let go (ooh)

Hold me close, don't let go (ah-ah)

Stay here, let the night unfold (stay)

Naega neowa — keep me close, keep me close

Outro

Mm-mm, ah-ah

(keep me) keep me close…
