"KEEPER" lyrics

"KEEPER"

Talking through your mom again
Put this pride aside again
I don't even know what time it is
Is it even worth a try
Tell me and I

Couple things I can't defend
I'm just trying to clean my hands of all that I've done
Going green every time I send don't it?
This type of night, I need you right here

It's getting hard for me to say
The thoughts of me in your apartment linger
Getting harder to replace you
Can't forget the way that I remember
Ooh the way your lips
Reminiscing about the tenderness
When my days, turn to night
I get to missing you

I'm telling you baby
I can't be what I'm not
But you gonna be the one to change me
I know that I'm enough but I'm just trying to be
The one that you keep
Not just the one who comes back around
And drives you crazy, I swear
Back around again

Most nights had truth in it
Break curfew like a kid
I dry my fingertips
Every time I lift your chin
I'm trying to defend myself, all the times I was a man
The crying breaks the win
And this the night I need you here

It's getting hard for me to say
The thoughts me in your apartment linger
Getting harder to replace you
Can't forget the way that I remember
Ooh the way your lips
Reminiscing about the tenderness
When my days, turn to night
I get to missing you

I'm telling you baby
I can't be what I'm not
But you gonna be the one to change me
I know that I'm enough but I'm just trying to be
The one that you keep
Not just the one who comes back around
And drives you crazy, I swear
Back around again
Can you hear me when I say, I just wanna be more
