Lyrics
[verse]
You said it's nothing serious, said it's just for fun
But you met my mother, met my sister, met everyone
You stayed the weekend, learned my coffee order too
Tell me how that's casual, tell me how that's true
[chorus]
Calling this casual, calling this a game
But you know my middle name, you know my pain
If this is casual, then I don't know what's real
Because everything about this is the way I feel
[verse]
We don't do labels, that's what you always say
But you're the first face that I look for every day
Casual don't linger like you linger in my head
Casual don't mean the things you whispered when we're in bed
[chorus]
Calling this casual, calling this a game
But you know my middle name, you know my pain
If this is casual, then I don't know what's real
Because everything about this is the way I feel
[bridge]
Maybe we're just scared to say it plain and clear
Maybe casual's the mask we wear from fear
But I'm tired of pretending it's a passing phase
This feels a lot like something built to stay
[chorus]
Calling this casual, calling this a game
But you know my middle name, you know my pain
If this is casual, then I don't know what's real
Because everything about this is the way I feel
