Ben Platt - Need You Like This Lyrics




Hold your tongue, draw a line in the sand
'Cause you can't make a fist if you hold someone's hand
Lonely road, but it isn't so bad
Cause there's no way to lose what you never had

Floated like a lone dove
Was better off alone
'Cause I'd only rely on the wind and the sky above
Now you're in the air, love
We're just a couple birds of a feather
And now could swear
You're the air in my lungs

If you ever left, darlin', I'd fall apart
'Cause the sound in my chest is the beat of your heart
The world is on fire, the ending is fated
Pretending you're strong can be so overrated
So I'm telling you now, not afraid to admit
I can't help that I need you like this

If I was you, I would run far away
To the hills where there's no one for you to keep safe
Every time you don't it's like a new leap of faith
Like I'll never go back to those days when I

Floated like a lone dove
Was better off alone
'Cause I'd only rely on the wind and the sky above
Now you're in the air, love
We're just a couple birds of a feather and now I could swear
You're the air in my lungs

If you ever left, darlin', I'd fall apart
'Cause the sound in my chest is the beat of your heart
The world is on fire, the ending is fated
Pretending you're strong can be so overrated
So I'm telling you now, not afraid to admit
I can't help that I need you like this

Like the trees need the air
Like a river needs water
Like dad needs to learn how to cry from his daughter
Like mean girls in high school need some kind of drama
Like stars need the sky
Like a babe needs his mama

If you ever left, darlin', I'd fall apart
'Cause the sound in my chest is the beat of your heart
The world is on fire, the ending is fated
Pretending you're strong can be so overrated
So I'm telling you now, not afraid to admit
I can't help that I need you like this
I can't help that I need you like this
