"AY" lyrics

I lied about a flat tire, so I could hear your voice
I told you you're the last person I called
I used every holiday to wish you well
Used the last one up right as they dropped the ball
And yeah, I know it's been getting out of hand, might seem excessive
Like I haven't taken any space at all

I keep crossing more excuses off my list
Of reasons to call you
I keep stumbling upon the things you left
In corners of my room
I know that I'm not even being that convincing
I'm done with all stories neither one of us believes in
I won't waste your time
I can't keep feeling like I'm losing you again
So I'll only call you
On days that end in A-Y
On days that end in A-Y

I know I call too many times
But my pet goldfish just died
He was such a good guy
I don't wanna be alone tonight
Yeah, I don't wanna call you just a friend or just a season
So I got you on speed dial number 5

I keep crossing more excuses off my list
Of reasons to call you
I keep stumbling upon the things you left
In corners of my room
I know that I'm not even being that convincing
I'm done with all stories neither one of us believes in
I won't waste your time
I can't keep feeling like I'm losing you again
So I'll only call you
On days that end in A-Y
On days that end in A-Y

Did we lose our connection?
I swear I'm only checking
I hate us being less than
What we used to be

I keep crossing more excuses off my list
Of reasons to call you
I keep stumbling upon the things you left
In corners of my room
I know that I'm not even being that convincing
I'm done with all stories neither one of us believes in
I won't waste your time
I can't keep feeling like I'm losing you again
So I'll only call you
On days that end in A-Y
On days that end in A-Y

I'll stop pretending
On days that end in
A-Y, A-Y
I'll only call you
