Lyrics
Are you on your way
I really need you bad
I been out for a while and now I need you
I’m not doing great
Come help the feeling pass
I needed to find somebody to talk to
Are you on your way to heal my heart
I know some days you’re in the dark
Come thru and close my open scars
And when you text me
Send me your ETA
Cuz I’m runnin’ outta time and I needa be saved
Tell me you’re on your way
Cuz that’ll keep me holdin’ on baby im not ok
It really breaks my heart the way I need you
This codependent love was bleedin’ too
And in the end we both should walk away
But for the moment I’ve been down
Send me your ETA
I’ve got trust in you
Which is big for me cuz I tend to have trust issues
And when you’re gone I been thinkin what this love can do
If you would stay for a moment I could smile
What’s said is done maybe only for a while
In my shoes it’d be hard to walk a mile
And if I’m wrong you’d be long long gone
But if you’re still right here I would know you’re on one
Baby
It’s hard for me to think about that
Maybe
We’d go our separate ways
Lately
Been hard for you to turn around and
Save me
Cuz I asked you for space
Didn’t really know what I was thinkin’ on those days
Cuz now I need you more than ever I can’t stand this change
And if you really wanna leave how could I make you stay
I just need you for a night so baby
Send me your ETA
Cuz I’m runnin’ outta time and I needa be saved
Tell me you’re on your way
Cuz that’ll keep me holdin’ on baby im not ok
It really breaks my heart the way I need you
This codependent love was bleedin’ too
And in the end we both should walk away
But for the moment I’ve been down
Send me your ETA
