[Verse 1]
You left me a ring
At a quarter to two
Blue screen glow
And a voice I knew
Say you were out
With your friends by the pier
Now you want closure
When the room gets clear
I got your jacket
Still hanging by the door
Smells like rain
And the old corner store
You talk in circles
Then you disappear
Leave me the question
Then you reappear
[Pre-Chorus]
Come on
Say it straight
Don’t make me wait
Come on
Pick a lane
I can’t play games
[Chorus]
Why you call me now?
Why you call me now?
When the floor goes soft
And the truth comes loud
Why you call me now?
Why you call me now?
If you want my heart
Say it when you’re sober, babe
[Verse 2]
Saw you downtown
By the ticket booth lights
New shoes scuffed
And a stare that bites
You laughed too hard
At a joke not there
Then looked at me
Like I should care
I had my hands
On the wheel, on the glass
You had that look
Like a storm in class
And every time
You lean in close
You leave me with less
Than you said you’d show
[Pre-Chorus]
Come on
Say it straight
Don’t make me wait
Come on
Pick a lane
I can’t play games
[Chorus]
Why you call me now?
Why you call me now?
When the floor goes soft
And the truth comes loud
Why you call me now?
Why you call me now?
If you want my heart
Say it when you’re sober, babe
[Bridge]
I know that door
I know that bait
I know your name
When it sounds half-weight
You want the glow
You want the chase
You want the part
You can’t replace
[Break]
[Instrumental break]
[Chorus]
Why you call me now?
Why you call me now?
When the floor goes soft
And the truth comes loud
Why you call me now?
Why you call me now?
If you want my heart
Say it when you’re sober, babe
[Outro]
Say it when you’re sober, babe
Say it when you’re sober, babe
Why you call me now?
Why you call me now?
