SOMETHING YOU SAID NORVELLE — Album 3 [Intro – Hypnotic Electric Guitar Riff, Deep Melodic Bassline, Tight Live Drums] [Verse 1 – Restrained, Conversational British Male Vocal] You said it standing in the doorway Like it didn’t mean a thing Had your keys between your fingers And your coat caught on the hinge I was halfway through a sentence You were halfway down the stairs And I laughed like I was listening Like I didn’t really care [Pre-Chorus – Bass Builds, Guitars Gradually Open Up] Now I’m walking round in circles With the television on Trying not to find a meaning In a moment that’s long gone [Chorus – Big Melodic Guitars, Emotional Lead Vocal] It’s something you said And I can’t get it out of my head Just a couple of words That you probably don’t remember And I’m lying awake Making mountains out of mistakes Was it something you meant? Or just something you said? [Post-Chorus – Repeating Guitar Hook] Oh-oh, oh-oh Something you said Oh-oh, oh-oh Stuck in my head [Verse 2 – Driving Bass, Angular Rhythm Guitar] Saw your brother at the station He said everything was fine I pretended I was busy Nearly missed the half past nine There’s a message in my pocket That I wrote but never sent Full of questions without answers And a joke that made no sense [Pre-Chorus – Increasing Drum Energy] And I know I’m overthinking Every pause and every word But it’s funny how the smallest things Are the ones that hurt the worst [Chorus – Full Band, Layered Male Harmonies] It’s something you said And I can’t get it out of my head Just a couple of words That you probably don’t remember And I’m lying awake Making mountains out of mistakes Was it something you meant? Or just something you said? [Instrumental Break – Distorted Guitar Riff, Melodic Bass, Rolling Drum Fills] [Bridge – Sparse Guitar, Close Intimate Vocal] Maybe I misunderstood you Maybe you were just tired Maybe I was looking for a reason To believe that we’d expired [Drums Drop Out] And if I asked you what you meant Would you even understand? [Full Band Builds – Feedback Guitar, Rising Drums] Or would you just shrug your shoulders And say it all again? [Final Chorus – Explosive Guitars, Powerful Lead, Layered Band Harmonies] It’s something you said And I can’t get it out of my head Just a couple of words That you probably don’t remember And I’m lying awake Making mountains out of mistakes Was it something you meant? Or just something you said? [Outro – Repeating Guitar Riff, Gradually Stripped Back] Something you said Something you said Was it something you meant? Or just something you said? [Final Distorted Guitar Chord – Natural Decay]
