Say the word and I let you go
Say the word and I won't start crying
Say the word and I let you go
Maybe you need reminding
We were written as a tragedy
All that you can do is love and leave
I'll carve your name on every tree
But I just need to know
Were you ever gonna show up?
Yeah, I just need to know
Were you ever gonna show up?
Pull me close in a crowded room
Is this supposed to be satisfying?
Memorise every inch of you
The devastation is so inviting
Surrender to curiosity
You're the wind, I'm a pile of leaves
If only for a day
But I just need to know
Were you ever gonna show up?
Yeah, I just need to know
Were you ever gonna show up?
Baby, you're gonna miss that plane
I know what you're thinking
But we both know we can't do this again
My heart is sinking
Baby, you're gonna miss that plane (I don't want you to go, but you got to go)
I know what you're thinking (I don't want you to go, but you got to go)
But we both know we can't do this again (I don't want you to go, but you got to go)
My heart is sinking (I don't want you to go, but you got to go)
Baby, you're gonna miss that plane (I don't want you to go, but you got to go)
I know what you're thinking (I don't want you to go, but you got to go)
But we both know we can't do this again (I don't want you to go, but you got to go)
My heart is sinking (I don't want you to go, but you got to go)
Maybe I want the part that bleeds (I don't want you to go, but you got to go)
Gimme the apple with the seeds (I don't want you to go, but you got to go)
My secrets whispered in the trees (I don't want you to go, but you got to go)
Heard by nobody else but me, baby (I don't want you to go, but you got to go)
Now I just need to know
Were you ever gonna show up?
Yeah, I just need to know, mm
Were you ever gonna show up?
