Background

Last night I made out with you on your couch in the attic
Felt all the stars in my eyes turn to static
Maybe I got too high
Or maybe it hit just right

But I held your hand as we watched the world shatter
Melt into blackness then back into matter
I found the brighter side
Right when I lost my mind

Whatever you do I wanna do it with you gently
I'll follow you wherever you go if you let me
Keep me closer, at your fingertips
And if you need me now

Baby, I'll be in the background (mm)
I'll be in the background (mm)

And it's no secret you love my ego
No stealing the show, 'cause we're good with taking turns
You make it easy to feel so comfortable, I like doing both
It's just the way I love you

Whatever you do I wanna do it with you gently
I'll follow you wherever you go if you let me
Keep me closer, at your fingertips
And if you need me now

Baby, I'll be in the background (background, mm)
I'll be in the background (background, mm)
I'll be in the background (background, mm, oh)
Baby, I'll be in the background (background, mm, oh)
