Background Lyrics by Wafia

Promised Land

2024

[Verse 1]
Last night, I made out with you on your couch in the attic
Felt all the stars in my eyes turn to static
Maybe I got too high or maybe it hit just right
But I held your hand as we watched the world shatter
Melt into blackness, then, back into matter
I found the brighter side right when I lost my mind

[Chorus]
Whatever you do, I wanna do it with you gently
I'll follow you wherever you go if you let me
Keep me closer at your fingertips
And if you need me now
Baby, I'll be in the background

[Post-Chorus]
Mm-mm
I'll be in the background
Mm-mm

[Verse 2]
And it's no secret you love my ego
No stealing the show
'Cause we're good with taking turns
You make it easy to feel so comfortable
I like doing both
It's just the way I love you

[Chorus]
Whatever you do, I wanna do it with you gently
I'll follow you wherever you go if you let me
Keep me closer at your fingertips
And if you need me now
Baby, I'll be in the background (Background)

[Post-Chorus]
Mm-mm
I'll be in the background (Background)
Mm-mm
I'll be in the background (Background)
Mm-mm
Baby, I'll be in the background (Background)
Mm-mm
