Ever Ever
[Intro]
How sad (It's so sad)
How sad (It's so sad)
That all things come to an end
(It was the sweet⁠—)
The sweetest thing I know

[Verse 1]
You said you wish I was a little more patient (Patient)
And I just wish your heart was vacant, baby (Was vacant, baby)
Tell me who's been stayin' lately
When I call, you don't call back (Call back)
I turn into autumn, then I fall back (I fall back)
Uh, 'cause I need to know ('Cause I need to know)
If you're still visible
So, boy, I know you ain't the same you, not tryna change you
But can't compromise (Compromise)
I know we need the distance to bring your miss in
Do I cross your mind? Don't lie

[Chorus]
Tell me are you happy? (Happy)
Tell me are you happy? (Happy)
Boy, don't tell me you don't ever-ever
Ever, ever-ever-ever
Ever-ever think about me
Tell me, are you happy? (Ooh)
Tell me, are you happy?
Boy, don't tell me you don't ever-ever
Ever, ever-ever-ever
Ever-ever think about me
Yeah, yeah
[Bridge]
(I wish I) Didn't get so weak, ooh
Ooh, baby, just to hear you speak
Intoxicated (Intoxicated)
Oh, oh, so intoxicated (Intoxicated)

[Verse 2]
Sometimes I feel so crazy
Livin' in front of your bullets (Of your bullets)
And I question the things I do for you
Like if you would or you wouldn't do the same (The same)
There's really no difference between bein' in love and bein' too dismissive
But I'd do it all over again, if I had to, in one instant
Like a New York minute, time is just an illusion
Ooh, so I ain't in a hurry to jump to no conclusions

[Chorus]
Tell me, are you happy? (Happy)
Tell me, are you happy? (Happy)
Boy, don't tell me you don't ever-ever
Ever, ever-ever-ever
Ever-ever think about me
Tell me, are you happy? (Ooh)
Tell me, are you happy?
Boy, don't tell me you don't ever-ever
Ever, ever-ever-ever
Ever-ever think about me
Yeah, yeah
[Outro]
(How sad, it's so sad)
How sad (It's so sad)
That all things come to an end (True)
But then again
It was the sweet⁠—
The sweetest thing I know
It was the sweet⁠—
The sweetest thing, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
But then again
It was the sweet⁠—
The sweetest thing, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
It was the sweet⁠—
The sweetest thing I know
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
