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 gunna show up?
Yeah, I just need to know
Were you ever gunna 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 gunna show up?
Yeah, I just need to know
Were you ever gunna show up?

Baby, you're gunna 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 gunna 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 gunna miss that plane
I know what you're thinking
But we both know we can't do this again
My heart is sinking

Maybe I want the part that bleeds
Gimme the apple with the seeds
My secrets whispered in the trees
Heard by nobody else but me, baby

Now I just need to know
Were you ever gunna show up?
Yeah, I just need to know
Were you ever gunna show up?
