Sometime

Lyrics

[Intro – muted synth plucks, soft filtered vocal] Sometime, sometime Yeah, I know what that means

[Verse 1 – conversational, intimate, close-mic] You said we should get a drink sometime That was back in May Now it's almost October and I'm Still keeping Fridays open just in case You watch every story that I post Then you're gone without a trace And I built a whole life in my head Out of "hey" and "haha" and a heart

[Pre-Chorus – rising, hi-hats come in] I was reading into every "lol" Like it was a love letter Telling all my friends "he's just busy" Like that made it better And I know, I know, I know—

[Chorus – bright, catchy, full voice] You said "sometime" And I said "okay" Like sometime was a Friday Like sometime was a date I kept my phone face-up Kept my weekends clean But I'm done waiting on sometime 'Cause I know what sometime means

[Drop – melodic synth lead, vocal chops] Sometime, sometime (Never, never, never) I know what sometime means (Never, never, never)

[Verse 2 – a little more confident, half-smile] So I muted the thread Well, archived it, but close enough Went out on Saturday with people Who actually show up And you sent me "hey stranger" At 1 a.m. like it's nothing And for once I didn't answer And it felt like something

[Pre-Chorus – bigger build] I was reading into every "lol" Like it was a love letter Telling all my friends "he's just busy" Like that made it better And I know, I know, I know—

[Chorus – bright, catchy, full voice] You said "sometime" And I said "okay" Like sometime was a Friday Like sometime was a date I kept my phone face-up Kept my weekends clean But I'm done waiting on sometime 'Cause I know what sometime means

[Drop – melodic synth lead, vocal chops] Sometime, sometime (Never, never, never) I know what sometime means (Never, never, never)

[Bridge – stripped back, piano and vocal, half-time, leave a beat of silence before the last line] Maybe you meant it Maybe you didn't Either way, I'm not keeping score I'm not even angry I'm just not waiting Outside a door anymore And if you ever ask me— No. I'm good.

[Final Chorus – biggest, harmonies, ad-libs] You said "sometime" Well, sometime came today Funny, you weren't in it And I was fine that way My phone's face-down I've got somewhere to be 'Cause I'm done waiting on sometime And I know what sometime means

[Final Drop – full energy] Sometime, sometime (Never, never, never) I know what sometime means (Never, never, never) Sometime, sometime (Never, never, never) Yeah, I know what that means

[Outro – filtered, fading out] You said "sometime" (Never, never) Yeah, I know what that means
