[Verse 1]
I've been thinking about you a lot more than I should
I’ve caught my finger slipping up the same page
Of my telephone book
But just hear me out, or let me in
Signing the guest list, places we've been
I'm hoping with a soft spot
That there’s a chance of bumping into you

[Chorus]
Tell me what does your heart say
Would you listen anyway?
I promise you I'll look good when I'm sober
Tell me what have you got when you gave it all away
I promise you I'll look good when I'm sober

[Verse 2]
Still mingling with bouncers, unhappy where I'm stood
Feeling like I miss thе way you kiss me
Mimic your lips with a sharp left hook
So I look to her, took on thе chin
Blood on a jumper, tuck your shirt in
Hopefully don't need you, but comfort in pretending that I do

[Chorus]
Tell me what does your heart say
Would you listen anyway?
I promise you I'll look good when I’m sober
Tell me what have you got when you gave it all away
I promise you I’ll look good when I'm sober
[Bridge]
And you know just what to say
(And you know just what to say)
That the phone call’s not the same
(That the phone call's not the same)

[Instrumental Break]
(—naht ssel truh dluow hcnup a kniht I)
(siht naht ssel truh dluow hcnup a kniht I)

[Verse 3]
So just hear me out, or let me in
I miss the hangnails, pits of your skin
Those eyes of hers, looking at him
I think a punch would hurt less than this
Bathed under an ocean, of turgid hotel lights
The gasping of attention, the rolling of your eyes

Oh, don't make me go
I could be so much better
Could be what you want
Cold pillows of steel pressed before my tongue
Would love if it were your lips
Would settle for a gun

[Chorus]
Tell me what does your heart say
Would you listen anyway?
I promise you I'll look good when I’m sober
Tell me what have you got when you gave it all away
I promise you I'll look good when I'm sober
[Outro]
Tell me what does your heart say
Would you listen anyway?
I promise you I'll look good when I'm sober
(I'll look good when I'm sober)
When the evenings run it's course
Is always end up at your door
I'll look good when I'm sober
(I'll look good when I'm sober)
Tell me what does your heart say
Would you listen anyway?
I promise you I'll look good when I'm sober
(I'll look good when I'm sober)
When the evenings run it's course
Is always end up at your door
I'll look good when I'm sober
(I'll look good when I'm sober)
