What Do I Call Us Now? Lyrics

Do I call you?

And stick to the routine of the good morning calls

Hear your croacky voice saying thanks for waking me up

I will get up and get ready for work

Do I call you?

When I shut down the ignition

Pause the music and face today's mission

Pick up my phone and return to the to the missus

Do I call you?

Because I miss us

Because I crave that particular pitch in your voice

That resonance in it that makes it feel you are enough, and the rest is noise

Do I call you?

Cause my selfie camera misses you

How perfectly wide apart your eyes are, bold and shiny forehead

A girl so hot, heaven is great, but you'd be riding for hell!

Do I call you?

After my meetings

So you ask me "have you eaten" and I say Yes

Then you ask me "Hope you didn't stuff your face too much

Cos it's later tonight it's on it that I will be sitting..."

Do I call you?

To hear me call you "baybee"

You know you are my one and only lady

You are the only one I have been craving lately

All that has faded away...

So, what do I call us now?

We went from best buddies to lovelies

Like Eskimos, sharing body heat

Craving each other's warm bodies blending into one body

Listening to The weeknd on a weekend on a cold night

Missing the feeling of your curl on my arms when you hold tight

What do we call us now?

That early morning fondling

That aggressive cuddling

Me plus you, coming together like the end of a shirt

Passing through the hole like cufflinks

The feel of the tongue licking on the skin giving goosebumps

Pores opening with every hair strand

Other muscles doing the rising to the occasion

The view of you from that usual angle looking nicer than the horizon

What do I call us now?

When resentments are expressed in memes

And social media stories reflect feelings

And emotions remain buried 6ft within

I muted you and cleared our chats

But the sounds of our conversation are still in my head

Bringing back together the sums of our parts

What do I call us now?

Because the colors that have faded?

It's the memories that haunts us

Chasing down our happiness like a Lion on hunt

What do I call us now?

Voice notes sounding like melodies of threnody and elegy

The skin purring like a cat with allergies

A Tightened throat, and a voice breaking

A Flooded face from a wellspring of eyes leaking

Leaking like my roof when it rains

Without you, even the rainbow are without colors now

What do I call us now?

Cause these days I'm no longer the one put up with

It's not my biggest shirt you put on

It's not from my car that you pull up

You aren't even on my back to count the reps when I push up.
