[Verse 1] “You should’ve called Not text Not waited” You typed it out Like I’m the one who faded There were things I needed to say Things you needed to hear But pride got drunk on that silence And both of us disappeared [Pre-Chorus] You hit send Then hit your stories Like a match to gasoline You turned my name into a punchline For your little glowing screen (hey) [Chorus] You say you should’ve called But you like the crowd Turn my hurt into a highlight reel You must be so proud I’m not the prettiest thing That I used to be at all But my love feels like heaven And you never let it fall You should’ve called You should’ve called [Verse 2] I gave forever in the small things Made your bad days feel like grace Held your worries like they’re sacred Kissed the anger off your face I make it easy to be honest Make it easy to stay I loved you so hard So honest You never gave me that chance anyway [Pre-Chorus] You got a kick from all the comments Every laughing little flame While I sat there in the dark Trying not to say your name [Chorus] You say you should’ve called But you like the crowd Turn my hurt into a highlight reel You must be so proud I know I’m not the prettiest Like I once was I recall But my heart feels like heaven You could’ve had it all You should’ve called You should’ve called [Bridge] I’m not your joke Not your weekend trend I was the one Who’d stay till the end I make it hard to even think Of walking away But you never stayed long enough To feel that way (no) [Chorus] You say you should’ve called Keep your could’ve to yourself I’m done begging for a voice You save for someone else I might not be the prettiest But I know what I’m worth now After all My love felt just like heaven And you let heaven fall You should’ve called Yeah You should’ve called (ooh)
