She Is Not My Lover

Lyrics

[Verse 1] She left a note beside the coffee Said, “Don’t confuse the spark for proof” I watched the elevator numbers Disappear before the truth [Pre-Chorus] You keep asking who she came with Like a question makes it right I can hear the doubt between us Getting louder every night [Chorus] She is not my lover, no Don’t put that story in my mouth She is not my lover, no There’s nothing here to figure out You saw a hand across the doorway And built a world from one hello She is not my lover, no I need you to believe me when I say no [Verse 2] Her silver ring was on the counter She’d forgotten it the week before I carried it across the hallway And left it by her apartment door [Pre-Chorus] You keep searching through the details For a crack beneath the paint But suspicion has a hunger And it never learns to wait [Chorus] She is not my lover, no Don’t put that story in my mouth She is not my lover, no There’s nothing here to figure out You saw a hand across the doorway And built a world from one hello She is not my lover, no I need you to believe me when I say no [Bridge] If I wanted someone else I would not hide behind a name I came home and told you everything Before the question ever came [Final Chorus] She is not my lover, no Don’t let the rumor pull us down She is not my lover, no I’m standing here, I’m telling you now You saw a hand across the doorway And built a world from one hello She is not my lover, no I need you to believe me when I say no [Outro] No, no, no Believe me when I say no
