Only You, Somebody

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The suitcase waits beside the bedroom door One shirt folded, nothing more You ask me where I’m headed, I say I don’t know But every road keeps bending where you go [Pre-Chorus] I practiced leaving in the kitchen light Still lost my nerve when you looked up tonight [Chorus] All I know is the time to go And I’m only you, somebody If I walk out, what will I become? A name you used to call somebody Hold me close, don’t let the silence choose I’m scared of every answer that isn’t you All I know is the time to go And I’m only you, somebody [Verse 2] The coffee cools beside your steady hand You draw a circle where my fingers land I’ve worn my courage thin from wearing it like skin Now I can’t tell where I end and you begin [Pre-Chorus] The hallway waits, the morning turns blue I count the reasons, then I count on you [Chorus] All I know is the time to go And I’m only you, somebody If I walk out, what will I become? A name you used to call somebody Hold me close, don’t let the silence choose I’m scared of every answer that isn’t you All I know is the time to go And I’m only you, somebody [Bridge] Maybe leaving isn’t losing ground Maybe love is staying when the fear gets loud If I’m more than what I need from you Say my name until I hear it too [Final Chorus] All I know is the time to go But I’m more than your somebody If I walk out, I can still come home If you leave a little room beside me Hold me close, let the better answer choose I’m learning how to stand without losing you All I know is the time to go And I’m still here, somebody
