You stopped replying on a Tuesday

[Verse 1]

You stopped replying on a Tuesday
Like nothing ever happened
I checked my phone a hundred times
Just to make sure I wasn’t imagining

We’d been talking every night
Then suddenly, nothing
And I keep thinking there’s a reason
But you never gave me one

[Pre-Chorus]

And I could say I don’t care
I could tell everybody I’m fine
But there’s a difference between moving on
And just getting good at wasting time

[Chorus]

You never said goodbye
You just disappeared
Left me with a thousand things
I wish I’d never said

And I don’t even want you back
I just wish I’d understood
How somebody can mean so much
Then leave like it was nothing

You never said goodbye
And maybe that’s the part that hurts

[Verse 2]

I still know your favourite song
Even though I don’t play it
And I know that’s probably stupid
But I haven’t learned to hate it

My friends say I should let it go
Like that’s something I can choose
But it’s hard to close a door
When you never watched me lose you

[Pre-Chorus]

And I could say I don’t care
I could tell everybody I’m fine
But there’s a difference between moving on
And just getting good at wasting time

[Chorus]

You never said goodbye
You just disappeared
Left me with a thousand things
I wish I’d never said

And I don’t even want you back
I just wish I’d understood
How somebody can mean so much
Then leave like it was nothing

You never said goodbye
And maybe that’s the part that hurts

[Bridge]

Maybe one day I’ll stop wondering
What I did wrong
Maybe I’ll hear your name
And it won’t feel like a song

And maybe I don’t need an answer
Maybe I’ll be okay
Knowing some people leave your life
Without explaining why they changed

[Final Chorus]

You never said goodbye
You just disappeared
And somehow all this time
I’ve been waiting to hear

That it wasn’t something I did
That I wasn’t hard to love
But I don’t need you to tell me now
I’ve finally had enough

You never said goodbye
And maybe that’s okay
‘Cause I don’t need a final word
To finally walk away

[Outro]

You never said goodbye
But I think I can anyway
