Iris Lyrics

[Verse 1: Phoebe Bridgers]
I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven I'll ever be
And I don't wanna go home right now

[Verse 2: Phoebe Bridgers]
All I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
And sooner or later, it's over
I just don't wanna miss you tonight

[Chorus: Phoebe Bridgers & Maggie Rogers]
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

[Verse 3: Maggie Rogers]
You can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive

[Chorus: Phoebe Bridgers & Maggie Rogers]
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus: Phoebe Bridgers & Maggie Rogers]
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

[Outro: Phoebe Bridgers & Maggie Rogers]
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
