Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, I thought I saw your airplane
But it was just another star
I guess stars are more romantic
But they don't change where we are, are
[Chorus]
You don't have to say you love me
No, no, no
I'm just hoping that you care
I just realised the love you gave me hit so heavy
That it, it just sucks when you're not there
[Verse 2]
While I'm driving to the record company
I'm the guy who sells them drugs
And I wonder if it matters if, once upon a time, things were better
But I, I don't think that it does
[Chorus]
You don't have to say you love me
No, no, no
I'm just hoping that you care
I just realised the love you gave me hit so heavy
That it, it just sucks when you're not there
[Chorus]
You don't have to say you get me
No, no, no
I'm just hoping that you'll dance
I just realised the way you looked hooked me so heavenly
That I, I just had to take that chance
[Chorus]
You don't have to say you love me
I'm just hoping that you care
You don't have to say you get me
It really sucks when you're not-
That it, it just sucks when you're not there
That it, it just sucks when you're not there
[Verse 3]
Meanwhile, back on planet nowhere
I'm the guy who just says yes to the boss
I do nothing consequential
I've got no dirty luck, I've always lost
[Chorus]
You don't have to say you love me
No, no, no
I'm just hoping that you care
I just realised the love you gave me hit so heavy
That it, it just sucks when you're not there
[Chorus]
You don't have to say you get me
No, no, no
I'm just hoping that you'll dance
I just realised the way you looked hooked me so heavenly
That I, I just had to take that chance
I just had to take that chance
[Outro]
I just had to take that-
I just had to take that chance
I just had to take that-
I just had to take that chance
I just had to take that-
I just had to take that chance
I just had to take that-
I just had to take that chance
I just had to take that-
