Love Story

I'm not backing down anymore
And if it's hard, I'll stay
No more running from anything
I hold onto my path, I embrace it

Buildings, lights, a tired city
You text me "come outside for a bit"
I put on my hoodie and go down the stairs
Breathing in the cold air, forgetting all about yesterday

I see you at the corner, leaning on the grey wall
You say "come, take a walk with me for a bit"
Taxis passing by, honking in the background
We hold hands, the rest is mundane

I'm not backing down anymore
And if it's hard, I'll stay
No more running from anything
I hold onto my path, I embrace it

You say you're afraid of wasting time with me
I tell you straight up "I choose you"
I have no promises, just small and clear steps
But I walk with you, not with big dreams

You laugh and kick the stone
Your hair falls on your face, you brush it aside
You say "if you leave, leave now"
I simply reply "I'll stay on the road"

I'm not backing down anymore
And if it's hard, I'll stay
No more running from anything
I hold onto my path, I embrace it

I know you have wounds, I don't pretend
I ask nothing of you, just give me a sign
When you feel down, I'll take your hand
And we'll walk through the night until a new day comes

I'm not backing down anymore
And if it's hard, I'll stay
No more running from anything
I hold onto my path, I embrace it

Buildings, lights, a sleeping city
You beside me, the rest doesn't matter

Dance, dance, like nobody's watching, catch the groove
Feel the music flowing through you, nothing to prove
We're alive, we're free, let the rhythm set us free
Dancing in the sunshine, that's where we wanna be
