Kettle's on, I'll pour it slow

Verse 1

Blinds half down, radiator ticks

Kettle's boiled, steam on the bricks

Screen keeps glowing, a dot on the map

Three more turns and you'll be back

Buzzer's quiet, hallway's bare

Coat on the hook, waiting there

Counting streetlights through the glass

Every one you've got to pass

Pre-Chorus

Is it the steam or is it you

Closing in like the dot moves through

Heart's ticking with the radiator hiss

Tell me how close, tell me this

Chorus

Text me when you're close

Kettle's on, I'll pour it slow

Text me when you're close

Blinds stay open till you're at the door

Text me when you're close

Watch the dot, watch it go

Text me when you're close

I'm not waiting, I'm just wanting more

Verse 2

Lift's stuck on the ground floor still

Phone lights up on the windowsill

Fingerprint fog on the pane

Say my name, say it again

Downstairs door clicks, footsteps slow

Every step I already know

Static building on the two-step beat

Dot gets closer, so do we

Pre-Chorus

Is it the steam or is it you

Dot on the corner, coming through

Heart's still ticking, radiator hiss

Tell me how close, tell me this

Chorus

Text me when you're close

Kettle's on, I'll pour it slow

Text me when you're close

Blinds stay open till you're at the door

Text me when you're close

Watch the dot, watch it go

Text me when you're close

I'm not waiting, I'm just wanting more

Bridge

Battery's dying, screen goes black

No more dot now, no way back

Just the stairwell, just the sound

Of your feet coming round

Chorus

Text me when you're close

Kettle's on, I'll pour it slow

Text me when you're close

Blinds stay open till you're at the door

Text me when you're close

Watch the dot, watch it go

Text me when you're close

I'm not waiting, I'm just wanting more
