Lyrics

Have you got col or in your cheeks?

D’you ev er get that fear that you can’t shift the tide that sticks a round like sum mat in your teeth?

Are there some ac es up your sleeve?

Have you no i dea that you’re in deep?

I dreamt a bout you near ly ev ’ry night this week.

How man y se crets can you keep?

’Cause there’s this tune I found that makes me think of you some how, and I play it on re peat

un til I fall a sleep,

spill ing drinks on my set tee.

(Do I wan na know?)

If this feel ing flows both ways?

(Sad to see you go.)

Was sort of hop ing that you’d stay.

Ba by, we both know.)

Oh, that the nights were main ly made for say ing things that you can’t say to mor row day.

Crawl ing back to you.

Ev er thought of (Eb)call ing (C5)when

you’ve had a few?

’Cause I al ways (G5)do.

May be I’m too

bus y be ing (Eb)yours to (C5)fall for some bod y new.

Now I’ve thought it (G5)through.

Crawl ing back to (CN.C.)you.

So have you got the guts?

Been won d’rin’ if your heart’s still o pen, and if so, I wan na know what time it shuts.

Sim mer down and puck er up.

I’m sor ry to in ter rupt.

It’s just I’m con stant ly on the cusp of try

in’ to kiss you.

But I don’t know if you

feel the same as I do.

But we could be to geth er

if you want ed to.

(Do I wan (G5)through.

Crawl ing back I to wan na know?)

If this feel ing flows both ways?

(Sad to see you go.)

Was sort of hop ing that you’d stay.

(Ba by, we both know.)

Oh, that the nights were main ly made for say ing things that you can’t say to mor row day.

(Do I wan na know?) Too bus y be ing (C5)yours to fall.

(Sad to see you go.)

Ev er thought of (C5)call ing, dar (Do I ling?

wan na know?)

Do you want me (C5)crawl ing back to you?

Sheet Music is the "classic" view — the one your piano teacher uses. Other modes (Beginner, Fall Down, Simple Sheet, Lead Sheet) trade real notation for color-coded notes and falling shapes to help absolute beginners. Use Sheet Music once you're ready to read both hands at once from real notation.

Every notehead is interactive. Click and the audio jumps to that moment so you can drill a specific phrase or bar instead of replaying from the top. The currently playing note is highlighted as the music advances so your eye never loses its place.
Can I download the sheet music as a PDF?
Yes — Sheet Music PDF is one of the download formats for this song. The engraved score prints page-perfect on A4 / Letter so you can practice from paper as well as on screen.
