Unknown in My Blue

[Verse 1] You show up like a headline I can’t read Half a smile, then you disappear on me Streetlight flicker, your shadow on the glass Every time I get close, you let it pass [Pre-Chorus] I keep checking my phone like it owes me the truth Got your name on my tongue but it won’t come through All my friends say, “let it go,” but I don’t know how ‘Cause you’re everywhere, not here, right now [Chorus] Who are you, who are you In the middle of my blue Got me dancing in the dark To a beat that breaks my heart Who are you, who are you Like a dream I’m running to I’m smiling while I fall For nobody at all [Verse 2] You leave little clues like a song on repeat A perfume in the air, a rhythm in the street Saw your coat in the crowd, thought I knew your face But it’s always just a almost, always just a chase [Pre-Chorus] I keep reading the signs like a movie cliché But the plot twists when I think you’ll stay If you’re real, then why you feel like a fading sound Tell me where you go when you’re not around [Chorus] Who are you, who are you In the middle of my blue Got me dancing in the dark To a beat that breaks my heart Who are you, who are you Like a dream I’m running to I’m smiling while I fall For nobody at all [Bridge] Maybe you’re a stranger Maybe you’re my future Maybe I invented you To make my lonely prettier If you hear this— Send a sign, send a spark Meet me where the bass hits In the back of my heart [Final Chorus] Who are you, who are you In the middle of my blue Got me singing in the dark To a beat that breaks my heart Who are you, who are you If I’m close, pull me through I’m smiling while I fall But I want you after all
