I blame it on my father
When he walked out, somethin' deep inside me shattered
I got a fear of someone leavin'
I can't stand to hear the door close on my feelings
You met me right when I needed it
And you held hands with my weaknesses
Now we found each other
And I'm puttin' all my pieces back together
I still remember that day in September
When you held me close (You held me close)
I nеver felt so safe, and for thе first time
I told you I know (I told you I know)
I wanna stay, -ay, -ay
'Cause even though I'm scared, I
I know that you'll be there
I wanna stay, -ay, -ay
Even on our darkest days
This time, I wanna stay for the right reasons
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh) For the right reasons
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh)
You can blame it on your father
'Cause you can't commit to lovin' how you wanna
And you're afraid of bein' honest
You won't risk a conversation out of comfort
You still remember that day in September
When you held me close (You held me close)
You pulled me in, and you told me again
"Don't let me go" (Don't let me go)
I wanna stay, -ay, -ay
'Cause even though I'm scared, I
I know that you'll be there
I wanna stay, -ay, -ay
Even on our darkest days
This time, I wanna stay for the right reasons
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh) For the right reasons
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh) For the right reasons
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh) For the right reasons
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh) For the right reasons
For the right reasons
For the right reasons
