Something To Help Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I was walkin' through your front door
Avoidin' all the cracks in the floor
You know I'm superstitious like that
You roll your eyes and you turn away
I don't know how it got like this
Oh, baby, can we go back? Mm

[Pre-Chorus]
There is a moment you can cut with a knife
And you're lookin' so lovely at the end of the night
Now you're speakin' so softly, the city's alive
But are you lonely? (Mm-mm, mm-mm)

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm in love with somebody
And you're in love with somebody else
But you don't need to say sorry
No, you don't need to say somethin' to help

[Post-Chorus]
'Cause I'm in love with somebody
(To say somethin' to help)
'Cause I'm in love with somebody
(To say somethin' to hеlp)
[Verse 2]
We fell apart in a simple way
No firеworks or dramatic appeal
Burned out as I watched you change

[Pre-Chorus]
But there was a moment on the day that we met
You looked from your shoulder, I'll never forget
Now, anywhere I go, you're still in my head
Are you lonely? (Mm-mm, mm-mm)

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm in love with somebody
And you're in love with somebody else
But you don't need to say sorry
No, you don't need to say somethin' to help
'Cause I'm in love with somebody
And you're in love with somebody else
But you don't need to say sorry
No, you don't need to say somethin' to help

[Post-Chorus]
'Cause I'm in love with somebody
No, you don't need to say somethin' to help
'Cause I'm in love with somebody
No, you don't need to say somethin' to help me
[Outro]
Somethin' to talk, say nothin' at all
No need to hold on, take your time
Why don't you ease your restless mind?

What did Dean Lewis say about "Something To Help"?
Genius Answer

I was in LA. I wrote this with [producer and songwriter] Tyler Johnson. He just did the Harry Styles record [Harry’s House]. I started playing some chords, and it came out very quickly. It was written within an hour. This is the first song I wrote for the album. It’s describing a scene. It’s saying, we’re not in love anymore, and you’re in love with somebody else, and it’s OK. And at the end, I sing about that—we don’t need to make a big deal of it. It’s just over, and it doesn’t need to be dramatic.
