[Verse 1]
I knew your laugh by heart
Before you knew my name
I kept a place for you
At every falling day
Your shadow in my head
Had soft gold in its hair
I built a home for us
You never walked in there
[Pre-Chorus]
And I kept waiting
For your hand to stay
I kept on hoping
You’d feel it too, someday
[Chorus]
Did you ever, did you ever?
Look at me like that?
Did you ever, did you ever?
Mean it when you smiled back?
I was there all along
You were gone by dawn
Did you ever, did you ever?
Did you ever love me at all?
[Verse 2]
I saw you in the rain
On a hundred empty nights
In movie frames and trains
In broken afterglow lights
But every note I wrote
Just circled back to blue
I was learning you
While you were passing through
[Pre-Chorus]
And I kept waiting
For your hand to stay
I kept on hoping
You’d feel it too, someday
[Chorus]
Did you ever, did you ever?
Look at me like that?
Did you ever, did you ever?
Mean it when you smiled back?
I was there all along
You were gone by dawn
Did you ever, did you ever?
Did you ever love me at all?
[Bridge]
I wanted truth
You gave me almost
A thousand nights
And still I don’t know
So tell me now
Before I let go
Was I your dream?
Or just a name you owned?
[Chorus]
Did you ever, did you ever?
Look at me like that?
Did you ever, did you ever?
Mean it when you smiled back?
I was there all along
You were gone by dawn
Did you ever, did you ever?
Did you ever love me at all?
