[Verse 1]
You kiss me through the phone, I'm comin' home, and seein' you today
Been on the road, incredible, but miss you every day
And I can't even say I wish I'm stagnant
But comin' back to you is a piece I'm lackin'
[Pre-Chorus]
Call by call, toll by toll
Wishes made, pennies thrown
I've been dyin' to build our life out big
And I miss the little things
[Chorus]
'Cause baby, when you're holdin' me
Everything is quiet
My world is noise
Girl, you've got a hold of me
Ah, you got me smilin', and I'm usually stoic
Girl, you're showin' joy to me
Like maybe pain in life is benign, and
Maybe there's a game to the grind if you're joinin' me
Baby, 'cause you're holdin' me down, me down, me down
[Verse 2]
Walk in your place, and kiss your face, I'll tell you how I feel
You entertain, and blush away
'Cause whenever we meet again everything that I felt comes out, and
Everything already has been said out loud, but
[Pre-Chorus]
I still talk, you still grin
Got my thumb on your chin
I've been dyin' to build our life out big, but
I love our little things
[Chorus]
'Cause baby, when you're holdin' me
Everything is quiet
My world is noise
Girl, you've got a hold of me
Ah, you got me smilin', and I'm usually stoic
Girl, you're showin' joy to me
Like maybe pain in life is benign, and
Maybe there's a game to the grind if you're joinin' me
Baby, 'cause you're holdin' me down, me down, me down
[Bridge]
I love you but I'm so torn
'Cause I'm leavin'
And breathing is something that you didn't ask for, for
Oh, and
I wanna give you so much more
'Cause you've given me healin' and sweetness I never could ask for, for
[Chorus]
'Cause baby, when you're holdin' me
Everything is quiet
And my world is noise
Girl, you've got a hold of me
Ah, you got me smilin', and I'm usually stoic
Girl, you're showin' joy to me
Like maybe pain in life is benign, and
Maybe there's a game to the grind if you're joinin' me
Baby, 'cause you're holdin' me down, me down, me down
[Outro]
'Cause baby, when you're holdin' me
Everything is quiet

Ambition and love don’t mix well. I’m in my first long term relationship and I wrote this song as an apology before going on tour for over a month. It talks through the mixed feelings of trying to build a dream life while still wishing I was home and apologizing for being away. “EVERYTHING IS QUIET”...
