Take These Things Away - Rachel Platten

I want someone to know my favorite ice cream

I want someone to laugh when I act like I’m thirteen

I need someone to stay till I can fall asleep

Make being awake like living in a dream

And at the end of everyday no one can take these things away

We all want love and that’s okay,

Maybe there’s someone.

When my song has slipped away

And the darkness swallows the day

Another one’s not very far away, so baby just hold on.

Baby just hold on

I want somewhere to go when it’s too noisy in my head

Verbal vertigo I need to hear my voice instead

I need some way to lose this fear of falling down

Cause I can still dance when my feet are on the ground

And at the end of everyday no one can take these things away

We all want love and that’s okay,

Maybe there’s someone.

When my song has slipped away

And the darkness swallows the day

Another one’s not very far away, so baby just hold on.

Baby just hold on

If you could see behind my eyes

Indigo and ivory

Overwhelmed in outer space

Spinning round and round and chasing

Fairy tales and shooting stars

How I wonder where we are

In this life we’ll be alright

All we gotta do is hold on tight

At the end of everyday no one can take these things away

We all want love and that’s okay,

Maybe there’s someone.

When my song has slipped away

And the darkness swallows the day

Another one’s not very far away, so baby just hold on.

Just hold on

Hold on
