Noah JM - Closest One

[Verse 1] You know the face I make When I’m about to say too much You leave your glass beside mine Like there’s nothing here to rush I keep a little truth folded In the cuff of my sleeve You ask me what I’m thinking I say, “Nothing, really” [Pre-Chorus] It isn’t that I don’t trust you It’s the way the words get stuck You’re the closest one beside me That’s what makes it hard enough [Chorus] I can tell you how the day went How the train was running late I can tell you what I’m craving What I wish I’d said at eight But when it comes to what I’m feeling I make small talk, change the view You’re the closest one beside me Why’s it hardest being true with you? [Verse 2] Your sleeve brushes my shoulder At the corner by the store I almost name the distance Then I’m asking what we came for You laugh and turn the paper cup Between your hands again I watch the little circles form And lose the sentence then [Pre-Chorus] It isn’t that I don’t trust you It’s the way the words get stuck You’re the closest one beside me That’s what makes it hard enough [Chorus] I can tell you how the day went How the train was running late I can tell you what I’m craving What I wish I’d said at eight But when it comes to what I’m feeling I make small talk, change the view You’re the closest one beside me Why’s it hardest being true with you? [Bridge] Maybe I’m afraid the honest thing Will change the room we’re in Maybe you already know it By the way I half-begin If I leave a little silence Would you stay and let it sit? I’m trying not to hide in it I’m trying not to quit [Final Chorus] I can tell you how the day went How the train was running late I can tell you what I’m craving What I wish I’d said at eight And when it comes to what I’m feeling I won’t turn away from you You’re the closest one beside me I’m learning to be true with you [Outro] I’m learning to be true with you Just give me one more minute
