  • I thought that I was dreamin' when you said you love me
    The start of nothin'
    I had no chance to prepare
    I couldn't see you comin'
    The start of nothin'
    Ooh, I could hate you now
    It's quite alright to hate me now
    When we both know that deep down
    The feelin' still deep down is good

    If I could see through walls, I could see you're fakin'
    If you could see my thoughts you would see our faces
    Safe in my rental like an armored truck back then
    We didn't give a fuck back then
    I ain't a kid no more
    We'll never be those kids again
    We'd drive to Syd's, had the X6 back then
    Back then
    No matter what I did
    My waves wouldn't dip back then
    Everythin' sucked back then
    We were friends

    I thought that I was dreamin' when you said you love me
    The start of nothin'
    I had no chance to prepare
    I couldn't see you comin'
    The start of nothin'
    Ooh, I could hate you now
    It's quite alright to hate me now
    But we both know that deep down
    The feelin' still deep down is good

    In the halls of your hotel
    Arm around my shoulder so I could tell
    How much I meant to, meant it sincere back then
    We had time to kill back then
    You ain't a kid no more
    We'll never be those kids again
    It's not the same, ivory's illegal
    Don't you remember?
    I broke your heart last week
    You'll probably feel better by the weekend
    Still remember, had you goin' crazy
    Screamin' my name
    The feelin' deep down is good

    I thought that I was dreamin' when you said you love me
    The start of nothin'
    Had no chance to prepare
    Couldn't see you comin'
    And we started from nothin', ooh
    I could hate you now
    It's alright to hate me now
    We both know that deep down
    The feelin' still deep down is good

    All the things I didn't mean to say
    I didn't mean to do
    There were things you didn't need to say
    Did you need to? Need to?
    I could dream all night
    Dream all night
    I could dream all night
    Dream all night
    I've been dreamin', dreamin' Writer/s: Charles Christopher Breaux, James Ryan Wuihun Ho, Jamie Smith, Ommas Keith-Graham, Rostam Batamaglij
