Lyrics[]
You played, I came to visit
You look the same, but different
Made me so damn sad and so I had to lie
I'm tryna keep a distance
But all my motor instincts
Still know their way around
And every sound’s amplified
And the heart beats there
And we can't hide it, oh, no, no
But I'm too scared
To breathe air into it, I might revive it, oh
Oh, I miss you, don’t call me
Oh, I miss you, don't call me
If I get too ahead of myself
I can tell I won't stop me
I miss you, don't call me
Call me, don't call me
Don't call me, please don't
I think of things to say so
I never have to go home
Do you remember the last time we were this close?
You said that everything would be alright
And the heart beats there
And we can't hide it, oh, no, no
But I’m too scared
To breathe into it cause I might revive it, oh
Oh, I miss you, don’t call me
Oh, I miss you, don't call me
If I get too ahead of myself
I can tell I won’t stop me
I miss you, don't call me
Call me, don't call me
Don't call me, please don’t
You're the light I'm scared to turn on
You're the bruise I'll never learn from
Oh-oh
I'm the one who's under your thumb
You're the one I'll never unlove (Unlove)
Yeah
Oh, I miss you, don't call me
Oh, I miss you, don't call me
Oh, I miss you, don't call me
(Call me, don't call me)
You're the light I'm scared to turn on
You're the bruise I'll never learn from
(Don't call me, please don't)
Oh, I miss you, don't call me
I'm the one who's under your thumb
You're the one I'll never unlove (Unlove)
(Don't call me, please don't)
Oh I miss you, please call me
