Private Number

लिरिक्स

[Verse 1] Your number came through with no name Just a little white screen and a spark I let it ring once, let it ring twice Then I answered alone in the dark You said, “You still up?” like you knew I’d be waiting to hear what you’d say Now I’m tracing the edge of your secret While the morning keeps creeping this way [Pre-Chorus] If it’s nothing, why hide it? If it’s over, why call? You keep leaving the door cracked Then act like there’s no door at all [Chorus] Private number, say it plain Don’t just call and leave me guessing again Private number, I know that voice You can cover the screen, but you can’t hide the choice If you want me, let it show If you don’t, don’t keep pulling me close Private number, stop playing pretend Tell me who you are when the call comes again [Verse 2] You remember the song from my old car The one we’d sing wrong on the way You ask if I kept that blue sweater Like you didn’t give yours away I can hear you smile through the silence Then you swallow the words at the end You want all the warmth of a secret With none of the risk of a friend [Pre-Chorus] If it’s nothing, why hide it? If it’s over, why call? You keep leaving the door cracked Then act like there’s no door at all [Chorus] Private number, say it plain Don’t just call and leave me guessing again Private number, I know that voice You can cover the screen, but you can’t hide the choice If you want me, let it show If you don’t, don’t keep pulling me close Private number, stop playing pretend Tell me who you are when the call comes again [Bridge] Next time, don’t block your name Don’t make me do the math If you’ve got something left to say Say it with your whole chest I won’t be your after-hours I won’t be your almost friend Put your number where your mouth is Or don’t call again [Final Chorus] Private number, say it plain Don’t just call and leave me guessing again Private number, I know that voice You can cover the screen, but you can’t hide the choice If you want me, let it show If you don’t, don’t keep pulling me close Private number, this is the end Tell me who you are—or don’t call again [Outro] No name on the screen No more waiting for you
