Adele hasn't released an album since 2011's 21, but it looks like the wait could soon be over. Without warning during a commercial break on the UK's The X-Factor — between advertisements for Dominos and Tic-Tacs — the screen went black. Then, Adele's voice could be heard over lyrics to a new mystery song.

That's it! No album name, no details of any kind — just a voice we've been waiting for (for years!), to return. Listen to it:

Here are the lyrics:

Hello

It's me

I was wondering if after all these years you'd like to meet

to go over everything

They say that time's supposed to heal you

But I ain't done much healing
