Takes
Lyrics
[verse]
I saw you standing there across the crowded room
Something about the moment made my whole world bloom
But I just stood there, didn't say a single word
Watched you walk away, the quietest thing I've heard
[verse]
I always do this, freeze up when it matters
Let the good ones go and watch my whole world scatter
Wish I had the courage to just say what's true
Instead I stay silent, thinking about you
[chorus]
That's my bad habit, holding back what's real
Letting moments pass instead of saying how I feel
I keep on doing this, over and over again
That's my bad habit, wish I could begin
[verse]
Every missed connection plays back in my mind
Every word unspoken that I left behind
Maybe next time I'll find the nerve to speak
Maybe next time I won't feel so weak
[chorus]
That's my bad habit, holding back what's real
Letting moments pass instead of saying how I feel
I keep on doing this, over and over again
That's my bad habit, wish I could begin
[bridge]
Falsetto whispers in an empty hall
Wishing I could catch you before the curtain falls
This time I'm gonna break the pattern, gonna change the plan
Gonna reach for what I want, gonna take a stand
[chorus]
That's my bad habit, holding back what's real
Letting moments pass instead of saying how I feel
I keep on doing this, over and over again
That's my bad habit, wish I could begin
