flora cash
i tell myself lies
[Verse 1: Shpresa Lleshaj]
There was a time when we were blinded by love
And drove all night just to get out of town
To pretend we escaped
I could have died underneath all the stars
By firelight with you there on the ground
Without a complaint
[Chorus: Shpresa Lleshaj]
I've been hoping, I've been praying I'll wake up in the rain
Wearing your coat that we're soaked in the tent that we made
I tell myself lies
Like every minute, every moment since you laid there with me
That I've been sleeping, that you leaving was a terrible dream
I tell myself lies
[Post-Chorus: Shpresa Lleshaj]
Someday, maybe
I'll wake up there with you, baby
Get a second chance to get it right (Get it right)
I tell myself lies
I tell myself lies
[Verse 3: Shpresa Lleshaj]
I'll admit I don't regret what I said, but what I didn't
That's what hurts me the most if I'm being honest
I miss your lips the way you spoke with a smile
Before we kissed, the little notes that you wrote
That I keep in my pocket
[Chorus: Shpresa Lleshaj]
I've been hoping, I've been praying I'll wake up in the rain
Wearing your coat, that we're soaked in the tent that we made
I tell myself lies
Like every minute, every moment since you laid there with me
That I've been sleeping, that you leaving was a terrible dream
I tell myself lies
[Post-Chorus: Shpresa Lleshaj]
Someday, maybe
I'll wake up there with you, baby
Get a second chance to get it right (Get it right)
I tell myself lies
I tell myself lies
