lyrics
I wrote it on a Post-it, stuck by the kettle Three pages in my drawer, same crease, same metal Your mug still on the drainer, blue rim, one crack I practised in the mirror, then I put it right back I had the whole thing ready, every word in time But you walked past the door and I lost my line I paced by the bus stop, twelve minutes late Phone in my palm, screen lit, heart on shake I swallowed that speech, let it sit in my chest By the time you turned round, I had nothing left Never said it, never said it Never said it, never said it Never said it, never said it Never said it, never said it I kept that text unsent, thumb froze on the screen Drafts in the notes app, midnight, black and clean Tube card in my coat, your scarf on the chair I built that whole argument, then you weren’t there I even chose my words, sharp, neat, and slow But you laughed at some joke and let the moment go Never said it, never said it Never said it, never said it Never said it, never said it Never said it, never said it Now it’s two in the morning, rain on the panes I’m folding that paper, smoothing the strain If you come back round, I won’t pretend I still got that speech, but I lost the end Never said it, never said it Never said it, never said it Never said it, never said it Never said it, never said it
