Tuka
Ivy - triple j Like A Version
[Chorus: Ev Jones, Jeswon & Tuka]
I thought that I was dreaming
When you said you loved me
The start of somethin'
I had no chance to prepare
I couldn't see you coming
The start of somethin'

[Verse 1: Tuka]
I’d love to hold your hand again
I wanna feel the warmth between my fingers
From the first sign of spring to the scorching heat of summer
Autumn through the winter, ignore it all, sleeping underneath the covers
I wanna wake up every morning with ya
I wanna make love until the afternoon
I miss you more than just this picture hidden in my memory, tattooed
Every time I think of something real I always start with you
So nice to see you with a girlfriend
I love it when you’re happy, I remember when
You told me 'bout your business, how you thought you’d have to give in
But you didn’t, now it’s bigger just like fuckin’ magic
I miss you smiling at me from across the room
I miss being a part of something cool
With somebody like you, I don’t wanna be a stranger
Really, what will that do? Hey
[Pre-Chorus 1: Ev Jones, Jeswon & Tuka]
If I could see through walls
I could see you're faking
If you could see my thoughts
You would see our faces
I wish we could talk, but it won't help
I don't wanna be a stranger

[Chorus: Ev Jones, Jeswon & Tuka]
I thought that I was dreaming
When you said you loved me
The start of somethin', oh—oh—oh
I had no chance to prepare
I couldn't see you coming
The start of somethin', woo—oo—oo—oo

[Post-Chorus: Ev Jones, Jeswon & Tuka]
I could hate you now
It's quite alright to hate me now
When we both know that deep down
The feeling still deep down is good
Oh—oh—oh

[Verse 2: Jeswon]
'Cause I ain’t just tryna write a love song, still I sing a bittersweet
Melody, you were eighteen and I was twenty-three
It was destiny, but this is my apology
I couldn’t see what’s right in front of me, the forrest for the trees
I probably haven’t been as onto it as I coulda
Shoulda, woulda, hiding from my problems with my hood up
Just know it wasn’t you, I was running from my past
My reflection in the mirror had me sucking on a flask
Had that liquor, but it switched up when we went in for that scan
Held your hand as the doctor said, “We got a little man”
That was growing in your stomach, silhouettes upon the screen
I want you to know I loved him, but it wasn’t meant to be
Heavenly Father keep an eye out for my son
And my pops, to my mamacita, know that you’re the one
Understand I'ma be a better lover and a friend
Even if it doesn’t last I’ll still love you to the end
[Pre-Chorus 2: Ev Jones, Jeswon & Tuka]
You ain't a kid no more
We'll never be those kids again

[Chorus: Ev Jones, Jeswon & Tuka]
I thought that I was dreaming
When you said you loved me
The start of somethin', oh—oh—oh
I had no chance to prepare
I couldn't see you coming
The start of somethin', woo—oo—oo—oo

[Post-Chorus: Ev Jones, Jeswon & Tuka]
I could hate you now
It's quite alright to hate me now
When we both know that deep down
The feeling still deep down is good

[Outro: Ev Jones, Jeswon & Tuka]
I thought that I was dreaming
When you said you loved me
You say you love me
