Do You Ever Lyrics
[Intro]
I wanted the two seat version (Two seat)
I wanted the Saturday version (Saturday)
I thought there was more
[Chorus]
Really (Ah), do you ever think about me?
Really, if you're honest with me
I'd like to say it's two way (Really? Really?)
(Really, if you're honest with me) (Really?)
Do you ever think about me?
Really, if you're honest with me
(Ah) I'd like to say it’s two way (Really? Really?)
[Verse]
In my slideshows
You come off so well
Better than I еver remembеr
Better than I ever remember
You come off so well
Better than I ever remember
Better than I ever remember
[Pre-Chorus]
I wanted the two seat version (Two seat)
I wanted the Saturday version (Saturday)
I thought there was more (More)
I wanted the two seat version (Two seat)
I wanted the Saturday version (Saturday)
I thought there was more
[Chorus]
Really (Ah), do you ever think about me?
Really, if you're honest with me
I'd like to say it's two way (Really? Really?)
(Really, if you're honest with me) (Really?)
Do you ever think about me?
Really, if you're honest with me
(Ah) I'd like to say it’s two way (Really? Really?)
[Verse]
In my slideshows
You come off so well
Better than I еver remembеr
Better than I ever remember
You come off so well
Better than I ever remember
Better than I ever remember
[Pre-Chorus]
I wanted the two seat version (Two seat)
I wanted the Saturday version (Saturday)
I thought there was more (More)
[Chorus]

What did James Blake say about "Do You Ever"?
Genius Answer
I was looking to piece together something of a dance-floor nature and went back into some of my old beat ideas. I found this little piano loop with nothing around it—that’s what you hear at the beginning of the song—and it just stayed with me. Nico Muhly contributed some string arrangements at the end. Every now and again I write these slightly desperate songs like ‘I’ll Come Too’, where I’m just like, ‘Ah, I’ll come anywhere, I’ll follow you anywhere.’ And here, the lyric ‘Do you ever think about me?’ has that same sense of hoping someone still has you in their thoughts, and almost not believing that it might even be true, hence the ‘Really?’.
