[Verse 1]
If I were the first to love
You’d be the first to be loved
Wait as the roots find their way
They’ll grow deeper with each passing day
[Verse 2]
Look as the clouds pass overhead
I will count them ‘til the daylight ends
It will take more than one try
We will wait for a brighter sky
[Chorus]
Peel away
Keeping me up through the night
I’ll be okay
Be whatever you like
Fall away
I’ll stay with you by your side
E-scape
Be whatever you like
[Verse 3]
There is a way that you move
Through the spaces in front of you
Filling the room with light
I can watch you with unflinching eyes
[Chorus]
Peel away
Keeping me up through the night
I’ll be okay
Be whatever you like
Fall away
I’ll stay with you by your side
E-scape
Be whatever you like
Be away
Keeping me up through the night
I’ll be okay
Be whatever you like
[Verse 4]
If I were the first to love
You’d be the first to be loved
[Outro]
It takes one more try
With each passing night
Each passing day
Each passing night
If I were the first to love
You’d be the first to be loved
Wait as the roots find their way
They’ll grow deeper with each passing day
[Verse 2]
Look as the clouds pass overhead
I will count them ‘til the daylight ends
It will take more than one try
We will wait for a brighter sky
[Chorus]
Peel away
Keeping me up through the night
I’ll be okay
Be whatever you like
Fall away
I’ll stay with you by your side
E-scape
Be whatever you like
[Verse 3]
There is a way that you move
Through the spaces in front of you
Filling the room with light
I can watch you with unflinching eyes
[Chorus]
Peel away
Keeping me up through the night
I’ll be okay
Be whatever you like
Fall away
I’ll stay with you by your side
E-scape
Be whatever you like
Be away
Keeping me up through the night
I’ll be okay
Be whatever you like
[Verse 4]
If I were the first to love
You’d be the first to be loved
[Outro]
It takes one more try
With each passing night
Each passing day
Each passing night
