Lyrics
Verse 1
You asked about my evening
I told you about the rain
Left out how I heard your message
Then played it back again
There was nothing special in it
You were halfway out the door
Said you'd call me when you got back
I kept listening for more
Pre-Chorus
I can give you time
I've got things to work through too
But I've been making patience
Look like nothing gets through
Chorus
More than once
I nearly called
Had no good reason
That was all
More than once
I let it ring
Inside my head
And did nothing
If you ask
Was I thinking of us?
More than once
More than once
Verse 2
I went out with some old friends
Stayed until they stacked the chairs
Someone asked if there was someone
I said it wasn't quite like that
Then I walked home with that answer
Like a stone inside my shoe
It was easy at the table
Less so halfway back from you
Pre-Chorus
I don't need an answer
You're not ready to give
But there's a difference between waiting
And saying none of this exists
Chorus
More than once
I nearly called
Had no good reason
That was all
More than once
I let it ring
Inside my head
And did nothing
If you ask
Was I thinking of us?
More than once
More than once
Bridge
Some nights I need the distance
Some nights I need your hand
I keep hoping you can tell which
Without saying where I am
That's a lot to ask of someone
Who's been left to guess before
So here's the part I should have told you
When you asked about the rain
Chorus
More than once
I nearly called
Wanted to hear you
That was all
More than once
I held it back
As if wanting you
Was asking you to act
If you ask
Was I thinking of us?
More than once
More than once
Outro
Wanted to hear you
That was all
No good reason
To call it small
