You call me when the night is slow I pick it up, I don’t let go I know I’m only on your mind When there’s nothing else to find If I was what you want You wouldn’t take so long I’m just your afterthought The one you reach when she’s forgot Every word, it feels the same You don’t even say my name Mmm, I’m just your afterthought A borrowed love you never bought You don’t give, you don’t fight I’m the call you make at night You hold me like a second choice A quiet space, a missing voice You say it’s me, but I can tell I’m the secret you won’t sell If I was what you need You wouldn’t hide from me I’m just your afterthought The one you reach when she’s forgot Every word, it feels the same You don’t even say my name Mmm, I’m just your afterthought A borrowed love you never bought You don’t give, you don’t fight I’m the call you make at night If I was first in line You wouldn’t waste my time I’m just your afterthought The one you reach when she’s forgot Every word, it feels the same You don’t even say my name Afterthought, afterthought You don’t give, you don’t fight I’m the call you make at night
