Olivia Dean - A Couple Minutes Lyrics




Turn around
Since when are you smoking now?
It's been a while
Let me know, mm
Like did you end up moving house?
You're the only one who knows that name
You're the only one that does that face
I just wanna know if you're okay
Only have a couple minutes, it already kinda feels like
Back on your sofa
Of course I still care
Love's never wasted when it's shared, mm
And although it's over
I'll always be there
Only have a couple minutes, guess we're going back to real life
I guess we found a silver lining
I'm glad you're doing so well
If only you could see how I've been
If I'm being real, no, it ain't been the same
We could talk (Mm) if we want now (Mm)
Already know it's no good for me
It's alright, think I'm fine with the silence
There's some good in goodbyes
Oh, I'm back on your sofa
Of course I still care
Love's never wasted when it's shared, mm
And although it's over
I'll always be there
Only have a couple minutes and we're going back to real life
In your heart, every part of me, we'll let go
And let it start to be
In your heart, every part of me, we'll let go
And let it start to be
In your heart, every part of me, we'll let go
And let it start to be (Ooh)
In your heart, every part of me, we'll let go
And let it start to be
Oh-oh, hey
Only have a couple minutes, guess we're going back to real life
Oh-oh, hey
Have a couple minutes and we're going back to real life
