Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Your sister knows my name
Your mama knew my truck
I learned that smile of hers
Before I learned self-control
We kept it off the record
Kept it low and slow
Now you call me brother
I just nod and let it go
[Pre-Chorus]
I been biting my tongue
Since way back when
One wrong word
And it all comes down again
You trust me with your keys
With your busted old guitar
I trust myself
To leave that past where it are
[Chorus]
I never told you
I never told you
I kept that fire in my chest
I never told you
I never told you
She was mine before the rest
(Just a little)
(Just sometimes)
But that’s a line I won’t cross twice
[Verse 2]
Friday at the corner store
She looked me in the eye
Like we both remembered
How the door used to slide
No headlines, no confessions
Just a quiet little grin
Then she paid for gas and coffee
And we vanished back again
[Pre-Chorus]
You talk about your family
Like they’re made of gold
I keep my face straight
Even when the story’s old
One drunk word, one slip
Would burn the whole damn town
So I chew on my secrets
And I wash them down
[Chorus]
I never told you
I never told you
I kept that fire in my chest
I never told you
I never told you
She was mine before the rest
(Just a little)
(Just sometimes)
But that’s a line I won’t cross twice
[Bridge]
Now I’m staring at your front porch
In the summer heat
Feeling every old mistake
In my boots and in my teeth
If truth can break a brother
Then lies can do the same
So I take my shame home with me
And I don’t say her name
[Final Chorus]
I never told you
I never told you
I kept that fire in my chest
I never told you
I never told you
She was mine before the rest
(Just a little)
(Just sometimes)
But that’s a line I won’t cross twice
I never told you
I never told you
And I’m praying I stay quiet tonight

Style
Blues Rock and Soul with mid-tempo swagger, swung backbeat, gritty guitar riff, and a pocketed bass line; verse stays tight and conversational, pre-chorus opens with organ swells and handclaps, chorus hits wider with stacked gang vocals on the hook. Male vocals, raspy lead with double-tracked sneer in the refrain, small delay throws on key lines, pickup fills and cymbal lifts into each chorus. Ear candy: tape-stop into the bridge, reverse guitar swell before the final hook, short horn stabs on turnaround. EQ forward and punchy, warm low mids, smoky and intimate but still big on the chorus., blues, soul, rock
