Your name in my mouth feels new
Like a door I forgot was there
I keep reaching out to touch
The shape you leave in the air

[Pre-Chorus]
And I know, I know
I should play it cool
But every small thing
Leads me back to you

[Chorus]
Take me on, take me on
Under the paper moon
Take me on, take me on
I keep coming back to you
Hold me close, hold me close
Till the whole night falls through
Take me on, take me on
I keep coming back to you (back to you)

[Verse 2]
You laugh and the floor feels light
Even the hard parts move
I’ve been brave in a hundred ways
Still I’m shy when it’s you

There’s a shirt on the chair by the bed
Your cold cup by the sink
Little signs that you were here
Mean more than I can think

[Pre-Chorus]
And I know, I know
This could burn so bright
But I’d rather risk it
Than miss this light

[Chorus]
Take me on, take me on
Under the paper moon
Take me on, take me on
I keep coming back to you
Hold me close, hold me close
Till the whole night falls through
Take me on, take me on
I keep coming back to you (back to you)

[Bridge]
If love is a line in the sand
I’m already over it
If this is a jump with no plan
Baby, I’m making the trip

So say my name, say it slow
Let the whole world slip away
I don’t need forever tonight
I just need you to stay

[Final Chorus]
Take me on, take me on
Under the paper moon
Take me on, take me on
I keep coming back to you
Hold me close, hold me close
Till the whole night falls through
Take me on, take me on
I keep coming back to you (back to you)
