[Verse 1]
Like a ghost don't need a key
Your best friend I've come to be
Please don't think of getting up for me
You don't even need to speak

When I've been here for just one day
You'll already miss me when I go away
So close the blinds and shut the door
You won't need other friends anymore

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, don't leave home
Oh, don't leave home

[Chorus]
And if you're cold, I'll keep you warm
If you're low, just hold on
Cause I will be your safety
Oh, don't leave home

[Verse 2]
And I arrived when you were weak
I'll make you weaker, like a child
Now all your love you give to me
When your heart is all I need

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, don't leave home
Oh, don't leave home

[Chorus]
And if you're cold, I'll keep you warm
If you're low, just hold on
Cause I will be your safety
Oh, don't leave home

[Bridge]
Oh how quiet, quiet the world can be
When it's just you and little me
Everything is clear, everything is new
So you won't be leaving, will you?

[Chorus]
And if you're cold, I'll keep you warm
If you're low, just hold on
Cause I will be your safety
And I will be your safety
And I will be your safety
Oh, don't leave home
