We Never Say
[Verse 1] From the night we met We have never said Exactly how we feel Scared of making it real Your suitcase by the door "Just in case " you joke But you always spend the night We talk until the sky gets light [Pre-Chorus] All these almost-words Balancing on my tongue If I push them out Do we come apart Or come undone? [Chorus] If I say it Will you stay? Will I lose you forever Or wake up to your face? If I say it Will we break? Will it make this too real Or give us something we can’t fake? If I say… if I say… What it is we never say [Verse 2] Candle burning low Half our dinner cold Laughing in your dress shoes Dancing in the hallway in my old coat Your head on my chest Watching some old show I memorize your breathing Like it’s something I’m not meant to know [Pre-Chorus] All these almost-words Stacking in my throat If I let them fall Do we sink or finally float? [Chorus] If I say it Will you stay? Will I lose you forever Or wake up to your face? If I say it Will we break? Will it make this too real Or give us something we can’t fake? If I say… if I say… What it is we never say [Bridge] You trace circles on my hand Like you’re writing what you hide Are you scared of this as I am? Are you waiting on a sign? (oh) If you’re thinking what I’m thinking Touch my arm and don’t let go I’m one breath away from speaking Do you really want to know? [Chorus] If I say it Will you stay? Will I lose you forever Or wake up to your face? If I say it Will we break? Or finally call this love And let the pieces fall in place? If I say… if I say… What it is we never say If I say… if I say… Will you promise you’ll stay?
