Half asleep You sounded like home We never said love But i think we got close Low battery Still staying on You said, “you still there?” I said, “yeah,” but i was gone Phone on speaker Face down on my bed Blue light blinking Beside my head You got quiet I did too Both of us scared To say what we knew Three in the morning Nothing to prove Just your breathing Filling my room I should’ve hung up You should’ve slept But neither one of us Wanted it yet And i don’t know What we were trying to be You never asked So i left it unnamed But every night Went a little too deep For something We never claimed Half asleep You sounded like home We never said love But i think we got close Half asleep With your voice in my phone I didn’t say much Just forgot how to be alone Half asleep Half asleep We stayed right there Till the silence spoke We never said love But i think we got close Now i still check it Before i pass out Like your name might show up And turn me around Screen on one percent Room going dark Funny how silence Still hits this hard I hear your “you there?” Out of nowhere Reach for my phone Like you might be there But it’s just me And the ceiling fan And all the things I almost said back then I think i loved you In the quiet way Not enough to say it Just enough to stay Half asleep You sounded like home We never said love But i think we got close Half asleep With your voice in my phone I didn’t say much Just forgot how to be alone Half asleep I still leave it close Like some part of me Didn’t let you go We never said love We never said no Half asleep I think we got close
