Jessie Reyez
SUGAR AT NIGHT
[Verse 1]
I could blame your parents but you're grown now
Thirty somethin’ but you still don't wanna slow down
A couple vodkas and you lose all your control now
Still at your mamas, you don't even have your own house
Don’t wanna grow up you just grip onto your hometown
Forget your etiquette and grab your phone and scroll down
Worried about your shoes more than your soul, you sold out
And if it ain't about you, you just peace and zone out
[Pre-Chorus]
Beside you still feels like I'm on an island by myself
It's such a joke to hope that you could just be normal
But who am I to ask that if I'm twenty-five miles past being Miss Perfect?
Oh, the jury's out on that one
[Chorus]
You're like sugar at night (Sugar at night)
You just fuck up my sleep (You just fuck up my sleep)
You'll never make me a bride (You’ll never make me a bride)
You just give me fight scenes (You just give me fight scenes)
You’re like sugar at night (You're like sugar at night)
You just fuck up my sleep (You just fuck up my sleep)
You always take away my smile (You always take away my smile)
You always fuck up my dreams (You always fuck up my dreams)
My dream (My dream)
[Verse 2]
I could say it’s love but it's just highlights
Sometimes I wish that you'd have never entered my life
My friends would call and say they saw you had a wild night
Was so embarrassed when I had to call you my guy
You stole my good years and my phone calls
I wish I could've seen you comin’ in some tarot cards
I could've dodged your cheating and some bad scars
Now I'm stuck sellin' a broken heart and old parts
[Pre-Chorus]
Beside you still feels like I'm on an island by myself
It's such a joke to hope that you could just be normal
But who am I to ask that if I'm twenty-five miles past being Miss Perfect?
Oh, the jury's out on that one
[Chorus]
You're like sugar at night (Sugar at night)
You just fuck up my sleep (You just fuck up my sleep)
You'll never make me a bride (You'll never make me a bride)
You just give me fight scenes (You just give me fight scenes)
You're like sugar at night (You're like sugar at night)
You just fuck up my sleep (You just fuck up my sleep)
You always take away my smile (You always take away my smile)
You always fuck up my dreams (You always fuck up my dreams)
My-y-y dream (My dream)
[Outro]
Sugar at night
You just fuck up my sleep
You'll never make me a bride
