What I Need Lyrics by Emma Campbell

2023

[Verse 1]
There's a depth to this
And I know it when I'm beside you
It's been a while since it's hit me in the stomach like this
And I can feel it in the lost sentences
[Pre-Chorus]
And I know, I know, I know
That I'm not yours
But I think I'll linger a little bit more
To know if you're sure
And I know, I know, I know
It's a bad idea
But I don't feel I have another option
Look at all it's already cost me
[Chorus]
Sleep and dreams and time spent in the summer
Other people could have given me love
But I guess it's not my choice, has it ever been?
Do we ever get a say in any of this, in any of this? (In any of)
[Verse 2]
You have a way with words
With choosing the ones that don't give up our feelings
And we lack honesty
Don't know what we need, don't know what we want from each other
And it's killing me to wonder
[Chorus]
Now sleep and dreams are falling away
And I'm running out of excuses, strategies in this game
But I know, oh, it's not my choice, has it ever been?
Will I ever get a say in any of this, in any of this, in any of this?
[Bridge]
'Cause all you are is little moments
All you are is something I can't touch
All you are is keeping secrets
Asking my friends if I'm making it up
Maybe you want to spare me the details
Maybe we're better off at arms length
And all you are is, all you are is
Maybe all you are is a mistake
[Chorus]
Cause I'm losing sleep and dreams and the summer's over
Still thinking of you, ain't getting no closure
But I know, it's not my choice, no it'll never be
Will I ever get a piece of what I need, of what I need, of what I need
