From the recording Private Conversations
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You got my name on repeat
Like it might keep me here
I leave my shoes by the door
Still you feel me disappear
Your phone face down on the bed
My shadow stuck in your glass
We laugh like time won't slip
But it always slips so fast
[Pre-Chorus]
If I fold, if I fall
Would you still call my name?
If the room went cold
Would you stay the same?
[Chorus]
What would you do if I ever go away?
Would you keep my side of the bed the same?
What would you do if I ever go away? (away)
Would you love me harder when I'm out of frame?
What would you do if I ever go away?
Would you still hear me in the pouring rain? (pouring rain)
What would you do if I ever go away?
Tell me, tell me, would you feel my name?
[Verse 2]
I saw your tears in the sink
Right next to my old chain
You said don't leave me with ghosts
But I'm already half-way
Got a whole world in my hand
Still it don't feel like mine
If I gave you all my truth
Would you hold the line?
[Pre-Chorus]
If I fade, if I break
Would you still want the scars?
If I lose my way
Would you meet me where you are?
[Chorus]
What would you do if I ever go away?
Would you keep my side of the bed the same?
What would you do if I ever go away? (away)
Would you love me harder when I'm out of frame?
What would you do if I ever go away?
Would you still hear me in the pouring rain? (pouring rain)
What would you do if I ever go away?
Tell me, tell me, would you feel my name?
[Bridge]
I don't want distance to be the test
I don't want silence in your chest
If I vanish for a night
Would you reach, would you fight?
[Final Chorus]
What would you do if I ever go away?
Would you keep my side of the bed the same?
What would you do if I ever go away? (away)
Would you love me harder when I'm out of frame?
What would you do if I ever go away?
Would you still hear me in the pouring rain? (pouring rain)
What would you do if I ever go away?
Tell me, tell me, would you feel my name?
