[Intro]
(With you, with you, with you, with you)
[Verse 1]
Before you go and live your life
Tell me for the hundredth time
I just wanna know that you'll call me, and
Baby, after drinking wine
When you're saying your goodbyes
Tell me that you'll come back to haunt me
[Pre-Chorus]
Play with my hair in the crowd till the night gets old
You're still in the air when I'm dancing on my own
[Chorus]
Wish you could stay
When I feel you leave for other parties
Time slips away
And pieces of me, hopelessly lonely
I forget how it feels to be close
So I'm wearing your favourite clothes
I wanna be alone with you
I wanna be alone with you
[Verse 2]
Do I ever cross your mind
When you're working late at night?
I just wanna know that you want me
Tired of all the back and forth
Swear to God it hurts me more
How you're living your life without me
[Pre-Chorus]
Say I don't care but the opposite is true
You're still in the air when you leave a crowded room
[Chorus]
Wish you could stay
When I feel you leave for other parties
Time slips away
And pieces of me, hopelessly lonely
I forget how it feels to be close
So I'm wearing your favourite clothes
I wanna be alone with you
I wanna be alone with you
[Post-Chorus]
(With you, with you, with you)
(With you, with you, with you, with you)
[Bridge]
There's nowhere to be, keep on driving around
I'm holding out promises, but I always doubt
Feels like oblivion, there is no substitute
I am not over it, I can't get over you
[Chorus]
Wish you could stay
When I feel you leave for other parties (For other parties)
Time slips away
And pieces of me, hopelessly lonely (Hopelessly lonely)
I forget how it feels to be close
So I'm wearing your favourite clothes
I wanna be alone with you
I wanna be alone with you
(I wanna be alone)
[Post-Chorus]
(With you, with you, with you)
(With you, with you, with you)

Like a lot of the songs on my album, I was writing about the experiences I was living through at the time. I was stuck in New Zealand, waiting for my US visa approval. What’s usually a two-week wait time ended up being three months; I was filled with anxiety over the possible outcome of being denied...
