[Verse 1]
You leave your jacket on my kitchen chair
Like you forgot you ever stayed there
I read the receipt from the corner store
Two coffees, but you came home with one more
You say her name like it means nothing
Then watch my face for what I’m becoming
I laugh too late, I look away
But every little clue has learned my name
[Pre-Chorus]
I could ask you where you’ve been
I could make you tell the truth
But the answer’s in the silence
And the silence sounds like you
[Chorus]
Is it curiosity, or do you miss her?
When you close your eyes, do you still kiss her?
You keep me close, but your heart slips free
Don’t call it curiosity when you’re leaving me
If there’s a door you’re trying to find
Say it out loud, don’t hide behind
Every question you bring to bed
Has another woman in your head
[Verse 2]
Your phone turns over when I walk in
Your password changed, but your hands still tremble
You tell me I’m imagining things
Funny how the truth has such familiar wings
I know the places you don’t mention
The little gaps between each confession
You hold me like I’m almost enough
Then disappear whenever it gets too tough
[Pre-Chorus]
I could ask you where you’ve been
I could make you tell the truth
But the answer’s in the silence
And the silence sounds like you
[Chorus]
Is it curiosity, or do you miss her?
When you close your eyes, do you still kiss her?
You keep me close, but your heart slips free
Don’t call it curiosity when you’re leaving me
If there’s a door you’re trying to find
Say it out loud, don’t hide behind
Every question you bring to bed
Has another woman in your head
[Bridge]
I’m not jealous of a ghost
I’m jealous of the way you go
Halfway gone before you leave
Making me compete with what I cannot see
So take your jacket, take your lies
Take that careful alibi
I’d rather hurt from what is true
Than keep inventing reasons for you
[Final Chorus]
Is it curiosity, or do you miss her?
When you close your eyes, do you still kiss her?
You kept me close while your heart slipped free
Now curiosity is all that’s left of me
There’s a door, and I found the key
You don’t get another question out of me
Every answer you left unsaid
Was another woman in your head
[Outro]
You leave your jacket on my kitchen chair
This time I won’t pretend you’re still there
