Tethered to You

[Verse 1]
You walk in, and the room leans in
Soft smile, but it bends my skin
You got that calm in a chaos day
Make my loud heart sit and stay

I keep your name in my pocket, babe
Like a lucky note I never gave
You say “come close,” I don’t need twice
Your voice cuts clean through the noise tonight

[Pre-Chorus]
Every little thing you do
Hits me like deja vu
I was drifting, you were there
Now I’m breathing different air

[Chorus]
Special person, you got me
Special person, you own me
When you move, I come undone
You’re the only one, the only one

Special person, say my name
Turn my panic into flame
When you laugh, my walls all break
You’re my favorite kind of wake

[Verse 2]
Midnight train, your message glows
Three small words and my whole chest knows
You send a pic of your old blue shoes
I swear even that can change my mood

You don’t try, but you lift the weight
From my shoulders after hard rain days
If I fall, you don’t make a scene
You just stand there and believe in me

[Pre-Chorus]
Every little thing you do
Hits me like deja vu
I was drifting, you were there
Now I’m breathing different air

[Chorus]
Special person, you got me
Special person, you own me
When you move, I come undone
You’re the only one, the only one

Special person, say my name
Turn my panic into flame
When you laugh, my walls all break
You’re my favorite kind of wake

[Bridge]
If the world gets rough, I’ll stay right here
Count your scars like constellations clear
Hand in hand, we don’t need to rush
You make the hard days feel less much

[Chorus]
Special person, you got me
Special person, you own me
When you move, I come undone
You’re the only one, the only one

Special person, say my name
Turn my panic into flame
When you laugh, my walls all break
You’re my favorite kind of wake

[Outro]
Oh, you
My special one
Oh, you
Stay when the day is done
