[Verse 1]
I like you in this awkward phase
Shadowed by a strong malaise
And I've had this dream copy and paste
Your arm's reaching out to touch my waist

[Pre-Chorus]
And I want to dance with you forever and

[Chorus]
Hold me closer
I've been waiting so long to tell you
Hold me closer
I've been waiting so long to say

[Verse 2]
I like this game we play baby
I'll hide my teeth, you look away
And I've had this dream recur today
Your arm's reaching out to touch my face

[Pre-Chorus]
And I want to dance with you forever and

[Chorus]
Hold me closer
I've been waiting so long to tell you
Hold me closer
I've been waiting so long to say
[Bridge]
We're too young to feel like this
Forever in lovе but never been kissed
And I say "I don't dеserve to be with someone like you"
But I do, and I do, and I do, yeah I do

[Chorus]
Hold me closer
I've been waiting so long to tell you
Hold me closer
I've been waiting so long to say
Hold me closer
I've been waiting so long to tell you
Hold me closer
I've been waiting so long to say
