[Verse 1]
I left my key in the bowl
Still feel your name on my coat
Half of me wants the door
Half of me wants you close
You got that look in your eyes
Like you already know
I say I’m done for the night
Then I miss you on the road
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me if I’m too far gone
Tell me if you feel it too
Every time I let it fade
You pull me right back to you
[Chorus]
Don’t let go, don’t let go
I keep coming back to you
Don’t let go, don’t let go
You’re the habit I can’t lose
Say my name, say it slow
Make me stay a little more
Don’t let go, don’t let go
I keep coming back to you
[Verse 2]
Same old boots by the bed
Same old bruise in my pride
I tried to learn how to leave
But your laugh stays by my side
You text one word and I’m there
Heart pounding through the glass
I told myself this was done
Now I’m back where I was at
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me if I’m too far gone
Tell me if you feel it too
Every time I let it fade
You pull me right back to you
[Chorus]
Don’t let go, don’t let go
I keep coming back to you
Don’t let go, don’t let go
You’re the habit I can’t lose
Say my name, say it slow
Make me stay a little more
Don’t let go, don’t let go
I keep coming back to you
[Bridge]
Maybe we’re a bad idea
Maybe we’re the real thing
Either way, when you’re near
I can’t fight the pull you bring
Hold me where the truth lives
Let the rest fall through
If I’m losing my way
I’m losing it with you
[Chorus]
Don’t let go, don’t let go
I keep coming back to you
Don’t let go, don’t let go
You’re the habit I can’t lose
Say my name, say it slow
Make me stay a little more
Don’t let go, don’t let go
I keep coming back to you
I left my key in the bowl
Still feel your name on my coat
Half of me wants the door
Half of me wants you close
You got that look in your eyes
Like you already know
I say I’m done for the night
Then I miss you on the road
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me if I’m too far gone
Tell me if you feel it too
Every time I let it fade
You pull me right back to you
[Chorus]
Don’t let go, don’t let go
I keep coming back to you
Don’t let go, don’t let go
You’re the habit I can’t lose
Say my name, say it slow
Make me stay a little more
Don’t let go, don’t let go
I keep coming back to you
[Verse 2]
Same old boots by the bed
Same old bruise in my pride
I tried to learn how to leave
But your laugh stays by my side
You text one word and I’m there
Heart pounding through the glass
I told myself this was done
Now I’m back where I was at
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me if I’m too far gone
Tell me if you feel it too
Every time I let it fade
You pull me right back to you
[Chorus]
Don’t let go, don’t let go
I keep coming back to you
Don’t let go, don’t let go
You’re the habit I can’t lose
Say my name, say it slow
Make me stay a little more
Don’t let go, don’t let go
I keep coming back to you
[Bridge]
Maybe we’re a bad idea
Maybe we’re the real thing
Either way, when you’re near
I can’t fight the pull you bring
Hold me where the truth lives
Let the rest fall through
If I’m losing my way
I’m losing it with you
[Chorus]
Don’t let go, don’t let go
I keep coming back to you
Don’t let go, don’t let go
You’re the habit I can’t lose
Say my name, say it slow
Make me stay a little more
Don’t let go, don’t let go
I keep coming back to you
Musikstil
Melodic rap with laid-back half-time bounce, crisp hi-hats, rounded sub-bass, and a glassy synth motif that answers the vocal phrases; verse rides intimate and percussive, pre-chorus opens into stacked harmonies and rising tension, chorus lands on a singable hook with doubled lead and ad-lib echoes. Reverse swells, filtered risers, and a tape-stop turn keep transitions moving; mix is polished, glossy, and close-mic with wide hooks., rap
