Hi

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You look at me like I might disappear I say your name; you ask if I am here Your hand is warm, your doubt is colder still I’m standing close enough to feel you flinch [Pre-Chorus] Don’t turn my heart into a question Don’t make me prove what you can see [Chorus] Hi, baby, stop saying that I am not real I’m right here, reaching for your hand You don’t have to understand the way I feel Just let me be somebody you can stand Hi, baby, look at me and stay a while I’m not a story passing through I’m right here, with my stubborn little smile And all I’m asking is belief from you [Verse 2] I leave my coat beside your kitchen chair I know the song that always gets you there You laugh, then look away before it lands I’m not a trick your lonely mind designed [Pre-Chorus] Don’t turn my heart into a question Don’t make me prove what you can see [Chorus] Hi, baby, stop saying that I am not real I’m right here, reaching for your hand You don’t have to understand the way I feel Just let me be somebody you can stand Hi, baby, look at me and stay a while I’m not a story passing through I’m right here, with my stubborn little smile And all I’m asking is belief from you [Bridge] If you can’t name what I am, that’s alright Just don’t erase me when you close your eyes Say my name and let it rest between us Like a small, true thing you don’t have to explain [Final Chorus] Hi, baby, stop saying that I am not real I’m right here, reaching for your hand You don’t have to understand the way I feel Just let me be somebody you can stand Hi, baby, look at me and stay a while I’m here, as gentle as I seem I’m right here, with my stubborn little smile Believe me—not just in your dreams [Outro] Hi, baby I’m right here
