[Verse 1]
In the ground, we bury
The seeds of a pear tree
All the things, we carried
Now we're down to our bare feet
[Chorus]
May I have this dance?
To make it up to you
Can I say something crazy?
I love you
Give me both your hands
To make it up to you
Let me spin and excite you
[Verse 2]
We are bound to inherit
(Ooooooooooooh)
The sins of our parents
(Ooooooooooooh)
And all of the people we passed through
(Ooooooooooooh)
Now we're down to the last two
[Chorus]
May I have this dance?
To make it up to you
Can I say something crazy?
I love you
Give me both your hands
To make it up to you
Let me spin and excite you
[Bridge]
To make it up to you
Dance
To make it up to you
Ooooooooooooh
[Chorus]
May I have this dance?
To make it up to you
(Can I say something crazy?)
Can I say something crazy?
I love you
Give me one more chance
Give me one more chance
|To make it up to you|
Give me one more
Let me spin and excite you
[Outro]
To make it up to you
Never gonna stay
Can I say something crazy?
I love you
Give me one more chance
Give me one more chance
|To make it up to you|
Give me one more
Let me spin and excite you

I was scheduled to do a session with Benny Blanco, and so I was walking uptown on 7th Avenue to the session. I was cycling through in my head this lyric, “Give me one more chance / Give me one more chance / Give me one more.” And then I worked out the chords on his piano once I arrived. I was like,...
This song happened very quickly. I worked on the second verse very hard on my own, and that last bit, that last chorus, the lines that happened in between. I worked on those very hard, but everything other than that almost happened on that first day.
Sometimes, a song happens without your direct gu...
It does not have to be a romantic relationship. And it very much feels that when I’ve played the song live, that it is very direct to the people that are there. And to the people that have been there for however long they’ve been there with me. “To make it up to you,” that’s where that feels the mos...
