Lyrics

[Verse 1: Tori Kelly]
It ain't always easy gettin' through to you
Complicatin', overthinkin' every move
I like to think you know the things here in my mind
But here we are, I can't seem to get this right
I don't know how to do it
I get so close to you'n
But then you look at me like I'm not there
I'm always thinkin' 'bout ya
Wanna learn how to love you
Keepin' me in the dark, it just ain't fair
I wanna know about it
If you wanna talk about it, I'll be waiting for you to take me there
So won't you tell me what you wanna do?
'Cause, baby, it don't matter to me

[Chorus: Tori Kelly & Jacob Collier]
Even if you say that you’re alone, oh yeah (Yeah)
Even if you wanna let it go, don't (No, oh)
Keep it to yourself
I wanna make it feel alright (Wanna make it feel alright)
If you been running out, running out
Running out of love (Love, love)
Running out of love

[Post-Chorus: Jacob Collier]
Oh, yeah, yeah
Love, love, love, love, love (Love, love)
Oh
Love, love, love, love (Listen)
[Verse 2: Jacob Collier, Tori Kelly, Tori Kelly & Jacob Collier]
Every morning, I wake up and you're not there (Ooh)
But you know I'm always thinking 'bout you then, uh (Oh, woah)
'Cause I like to think you know
The way I feel about you deep inside (Ooh yeah)
But here we are, and I just want to make things right
I don't know how to do it
Right now, we're going through it
Making you feel like we be goin' nowhere (Ah)
I'm always thinking 'bout the time we be spending together (Woo)
Right now, I guess I need you more than ever
So tell me all about it (Tell me all about it)
I need to know about it (I wanna know about it)
I need to if we're gonna go somewhere (Oh)
So won't you tell me what you're going through (Oh)
'Cause, baby, it don't matter to me

[Chorus: Tori Kelly & Jacob Collier]
Even if you say that you're alone, oh
(Even if you say that you're alone)
Even if you wanna let it (Even if you wanna let it)
Go (Go), don't (Don't let it go)
Keep it to yourself
I wanna make it feel alright (I wanna make it feel)
(Make it feel alright)
If you been running out, running out
Running out of love (Love, love)
Running out of love
[Outro: Jacob Collier, Tori Kelly, Tori Kelly & Jacob Collier]
I'm sorry I can't always be around you
I'm sorry if you think I don't care
'Cause I don't wanna leave you feeling lonely
I've been running out, running out, running out of love
I'm sorry I can't always be around you
I'm sorry if you think I don't care (Ooh, woah)
'Cause you will always be my one and only
I've been running out, running out, running out of love
I'm sorry I can't always be around you (Running out)
I'm sorry if you think I don't care (Care)
'Cause I don't wanna leave you feeling lonely
I've been running out, running out, running out of love
I'm sorry I can't always be around you (Running out, running out, running out)
I'm sorry if you think I don't care
'Cause you will always be my one and only
I've been running out, running out, running out of
Love
