[Verse 1]
I have picked up the phone
At least a hundred times
Thumb on your name
Then I kill the light
Everything feels fine
Till I hear that ring in my head
So I set it back down
Talk myself to bed
[Pre-Chorus]
I had the words all lined up
Like bottles on a shelf
Knocked them over one by one
Talked myself out of myself
[Chorus]
I just wanted to call
’Cause you were on my mind again
Every little thing I’d say
I rehearsed it
Over and over and then
I forget
I forget
Soon as I hear your voice in my head
I just wanted to call
You’re on my mind again
[Verse 2]
Scrolling through old shots
You laughing in that blue hotel
I almost hit “record”
To say what I never tell
Walking circles in the kitchen
Phone warm in my hand
Signal’s good
The room is quiet
But I still don’t let it ring
[Pre-Chorus]
I had the lines all memorized
Like a scene I never send
Every take sounds perfect
Till I reach the end
[Chorus]
I just wanted to call
’Cause you were on my mind again
Every little thing I’d say
I rehearsed it
Over and over and then
I forget
I forget
Soon as I hear your voice in my head
I just wanted to call
You’re on my mind again
[Bridge]
Maybe I’m scared you’ll answer
Maybe I’m scared you won’t
I hover on that green light
Promise
Then I don’t (oh no)
[Chorus]
I just wanted to call
’Cause you were on my mind again
Every little thing I’d say
I rehearsed it
Over and over and then
I forget
I forget
All the brave things I swore I’d confess
I just wanted to call
You’re on my mind again
On my mind
On my mind again
