[Verse 1]
We probably need to talk
But I always get scared
If you say it out loud even once
You can't take it back
[Pre-Chorus]
What if this is just a phase
And I eventually have to admit
That I lost everything with one sentence
And I realise it too late
[Chorus]
How could I say
That I love but I'm not in love
How could I at the same time
Leave you but still keep you
If you no longer spoon during the night
Is it then time to divide the spoons1
If neither of you are ever in the mood anymore
Is it then time to divide the spoons
[Verse 2]
Can I still call you
When I see a puppy somewhere
Or when I watch that Gosling2 film again
That always makes me cry
[Pre-Chorus]
Belongings are belongings
They'd be so easy to divide
But if we can't hang out as a group
Then who gets to keep the friends
[Chorus]
How could I say
That I love but I'm not in love
How could I at the same time
Leave you but still keep you
If you no longer spoon during the night
Is it then time to divide the spoons
If neither of you are ever in the mood anymore
Is it then time to divide the spoons
[Bridge]
Could we be
Could it ever work like that
[Chorus]
How could I say
That I love but I'm not in love
How could I at the same time
Leave you but still keep you
If you no longer spoon during the night
Is it then time to divide the spoons
If neither of you are ever in the mood anymore
Is it then time to divide the spoons
