Keep It Close to Me - Yumi Zouma, Cyril Hahn

I want to see you down

If that can help them get us

Completed or allowed

The tide will never let up

They say it’s just our fate or by design

That we are strangers from another place

I keep it close to me

That we are going one day

To pull ourselves around

And end this in the long run

You never promised nothing

I always gave you something wrong

We never kept confronting

I only needed someone strong

You never started bluffing

To barely give me what we asked for, holding on

I know you might be staying

When all I want is just a change

And if you think you may be

Another time, another place

Then save the way you make me

'Cause this is dangerous for how we thought we played

The reasons that we hold

Could give you room to think through

We’re changing what we know

Just like the wish it brings you

'Cause we know if they say another message

Keeps them leading you on bit by bit

Whatever happens

We’ll be searching there until they blink

To keep me and to hope

That someone will forget to

You never promised nothing

I always gave you something wrong

We never kept confronting

I only needed someone strong

You never started bluffing

To barely give me what we asked for, holding on

I know you might be staying

When all I want is just a change

And if you think you may be

Another time, another place

Then save the way you make me

'Cause this is dangerous for how we thought we played
