Sarah Buckley - What's Going On? Lyrics

I'd been trying to riddle it out, understand what was going on
I'd been under a duvet fort all night, with my phone switched on
Each time it trembled, I'd been checking was it you
But when it didn't light up, I was wondering too
I sort of floated past, with no view of what you're going through
Sometimes it seemed easy for you, sometimes you seemed confused too
Each time you'd send me words, I'd rummage through them, a scavengers hunt
Had we a future hidden in there, or would it feel be more blunt
My head was telling me
Don't expect much
But my heart was making plans, with the slightest touch
I wanted you around more than I could show
I didn't care what form you'd take
Just didn't want you to go
I didn't have an answer yet, I just had no way of knowing
You had the perfect poker face, if you knew how you felt you had no hint of showing
Maybe I'd wrap my time in a bow, just gift it to you
Then thought realistically how much of that could I manage through
My head was telling me
Don't expect much
But my heart was making plans, with the slightest touch
I wanted you around more than I could show
I didn't care what form you'd take
Just didn't want you to go
Tried to stay close to the start, not get hung on some progress chart
Tried to slow down the time, just pushed pause on each tick and chime
Tried to shut my eyes not see what it would look like as you and me
Didn't want you to go
Didn't want you to go
I didn't have a clear view of my life with you in it
Just sort of wanted you around
Didn't have a clear view of my life with you in it
Just sort of wanted you around
Didn't want you to go
My head was telling me
Don't expect much
Didn't want you to go
