"If I Don't Hear From You Tonight" lyrics - COURTNEY BARNETT

"If I Don't Hear From You Tonight"

Stars in the sky are gonna die
Eventually, it's fine
Just like a lonely satellite
Drifting for a little while

[Chorus:]
If I don't hear from you tonight
If I don't hear from you tonight

And it's so quiet outside
With this curfew lullaby
Is now an okay time to
Tell you that I like you?
I wait for your reply
Wait for your reply

[Chorus:]
If I don't hear from you tonight
If I don't hear from you tonight

[Post-Chorus:]
Well, I swear I'll never mention
This ever again
But now that I got your attention
I don't wanna bore the brains outta your head

All my fears collided
When our mutual friend confided in me
That there's a ninety-nine
Percent chance that it's requited
I read my Bible left to right
I fantasise I'm by your side
I lay awake and wonder why
I pray for rain and angels cry

[Chorus:]
If I don't hear from you tonight
If I don't hear from you tonight

[Post-Chorus:]
Babe, I need reminding
I got feelings too
And I try my best to hide them
But I don't want to hide anything from you

Stars in the sky are gonna die
Eventually, it's fine
You know that every morning
I'm rising with you on my mind
If loving you is a crime
Then give me those front-page headlines
Across the country and worldwide
Singing, "I won't give up this time"

[Chorus:]
If I don't hear from you tonight
I know you probably closed your eyes
And everything will be alright
If I don't hear from you tonight
If I don't hear from you tonight
If I don't hear from you tonight
If I don't hear from you tonight
If I don't hear from you tonight
