"On The Floor" lyrics

"On The Floor"
(feat. Phoebe Green)

I don't think this is more than a need to feel someone close
Yeah, I wanted space but I can't embrace being alone
And I've noticed the way that you watch me speak sometimes
If we dress it up, we could be in love for a night

I wanna pretend
I wanna pretend
We could be something, we could be nothing at all
I'll meet you on the floor

I don't want this to be something we overthink
There's no reason to talk or make it a thing
I've been sifting through sentences that I could choose
To articulate the way I feel around you

I wanna pretend
I wanna pretend
We could be something, we could be nothing at all
I'll meet you, meet you, meet you

It isn't right, but it feels easy
I know in my mind that you don't see me
But I think this moment is what we both need
I used to hate ambiguity

But it's all in our heads
I wanna pretend
Don't want this to end
I wanna pretend...
