"Soft (Live in LA)" lyrics

Still wearing her bracelet
I know it's your job but I hate it
Imagine being in my place with the tables turned

This 10-hour time difference
Coupled with your resistance
Is really making this distance
Between us worse

And I need you to be soft with me
Be careful with your honesty
'Cause honestly I'm a mess right now
On the edge. Could you talk me down?

How about a little empathy
Instead of acting like the enemy?
Can you meet with a little more love?
The situation's hard enough

I need you to be soft with me

I came with vulnerability, and no complaint
Asked you to listen, not to change
You keep yanking your love back like a chain

When I need you to be soft with me
Be careful with your honesty
'Cause honestly I'm a mess right now
On the edge. Could you talk me down?

How about a little empathy
Instead of acting like the enemy?
Can you meet with a little more love?
The situation's hard enough

Yeah

Am I such a drag to ya, my baby?
From 6,000 miles away
Could you give my heart, give my heart a break?

Am I such a drag to ya, my baby?
From 6,000 miles away
Could you give my heart, give my heart a break?

I need you to be soft with me, me, me
So, so, soft
Really
I
I need ya
Oh yeah
'Cause honestly I'm a mess right now
Could you talk, could you talk me down?
You know I'm not the enemy, babe

Yeah, I need you to be soft with me
Be careful with your honesty
'Cause honestly I'm a mess right now
On the edge. Could you talk me down?

How about a little empathy
Instead of acting like the enemy?
Can you meet with a little more love?
The situation's hard enough

I need you to be soft with me

I feel the need to tell everyone
That you're usually the jealous one
But to keep your hand off the knee of your lover on screen
I don't think is asking too much

Now I don't feel pretty without you here
Not fair to put that on you
I'm trying to visualize love over fear
But I need consistency too
