Thank U, Next

A collection of lyrics that speak to my heart From the album: Thank U, Next

"Me with no makeup, you in the bathtub

Love how my face fits so good in your neck

Why can't you imagine a world like that?

Feels like forever, baby, I never thought that it would be you

Imagine a world like that

Imagine a world like that

Can you imagine it?

Can you imagine it?

Can you imagine it?

Can you imagine it?

Can you imagine it? (Can you imagine?)

Can you imagine it? (Can you imagine?)

Can you imagine it? (Can you imagine?)

Ooh, imagine it (Can you imagine?)

Imagine it, imagine it

Imagine it, imagine it

Imagine, imagine

Imagine, imagine

Imagine, imagine"

"But all I can say is at least I'll wait for you

Lately, I've been on a roller coaster

Tryna get a hold of my emotions

But all that I know is I need you close

And I’ma scream and shout for what I love

Passionate, but I don't give no f***s

I admit that I'm a lil' messed up

But I can hide it when I'm all dressed up

I'm obsessive and I love too hard

Good at overthinking with my heart

How you even think it got this far, this far?

And I can be needy, way too damn needy

I can be needy, tell me how good it feels to be needed

I can be needy, so hard to please me

I know it feels so good to be needed

Sorry if I'm up and down a lot (Yeah)

Sorry that I think I'm not enough

And sorry if I say sorry way too much

You can go ahead and call me selfish (Selfish)

But after all this damage, I can’t help it (Help it)

But what you can trust is I need your touch"

"I'd rather be alone tonight

Really don’t wanna be in your arms tonight

I'll just use my covers to stay warm tonight

Think I'm better off here all alone tonight

Ain’t no checkin' on when I get home tonight

Just makin' sure I'm good on my own tonight

Yeah, I'm just sayin', baby

I can’t really miss you if I’m with you

And when I miss you, it'll change the way I kiss you

Baby, you know time apart is beneficial

It’s like I'm the universe and you'll be N-A-S-A

Give you the whole world, I'ma need space

I’ma need space, I'ma, I'ma need

You know I'm a star; space, I'ma need space

I'ma need space, I'ma, I'ma need space (N-A-S-A)

Give you the whole world, I'ma need space

I'ma need space, I'ma, I'ma need

You know I'm a star; space, I'ma need space

I'ma need space, I'ma, I'ma need space (N-A-S-A)

It ain't nothing wrong with saying I need me time

Usually, I would orbit around you

But gravity seems to be the only thing that's pulling me

You'll be my rise and shine soon as them stars align, mmm

I'm tryna self-discover

Keep me in your orbit and you know you'll drag me under

I'd rather be alone tonight"

"Because I'm trying to do the best I can

And they can't find something to satisfy me, ugh

Mmm, yeah, yuh

Even though you're bad for me, I know

You're the one that I'm thinkin'

Love me, love me, baby

Are you down? Can you let me know?

Love me, thank you, leave me

Put it down, then it's time to go

Get it like you love me

But you don't, boy, it's just for show

Take it or leave it, you gotta take it or leave it like uh

Don't want you in my bloodline, yeah

Just wanna have a good time, yeah

And no need to apologize, no

But you gon' have to let this s**t go

Don't want you in my bloodline, yeah

Not tryna make you all mine, yeah

And no need to apologize, no

But you gon' have to let this s**t go, yeah

No, we won't be talking the next day

I ain't got nothin' to say (Yeah, nah)

I ain't lookin' for my one true love

Yeah, that ship sailed away

I know what you want, what you want from me

I know what you think, what you think you see

I know what you looking for, but I'm complete

I know what you need, but it won't be me"

"If I'm being honest, I done been through way too much

And I won't say I’m feeling fine

After what I been through, I can’t lie

F**k a fake smile, smile

F**k a fake smile, fake smile"

"I've been outta sight

I've been worried 'bout you lately

Runnin' outta time

'Cause I don't wanna roll with it

Tryna get control of it

Why can't I let go of it?

I got a bad idea

Forget about it, yeah, forget about him, yeah

But, boy, don't trip (Don't trip), you know this isn't real

You should know I'm temporary"

"Look at the cards that we've been dealt

If you were anybody else

Probably wouldn't last a day

Every tear's a rain parade from hell

And I'm puttin' you through more than one ever should

And I'm hating myself 'cause you don't want to

Admit that it hurts you

We'll get through this, we'll get past this, I'm a girl with

A whole lot of baggage

But I love you, we'll get past this, I'm a girl with

A whole lot of baggage, oh yeah

And after all that we been through

There's so much to look forward to

What was done and what was said

Leave it all here in this bed with you"

"Here's the thing: you’re in love with a version of a person that you've created in your head, that you are trying to but cannot fix. Uh, the only person you can fix is yourself. I love you, this has gone on way too long. Enough is enough. I'm two blocks away, I’m coming over.​"

"Painted a picture, I thought I knew you well

I got a habit of seeing what isn't there

Caught in the moment, tangled up in your sheets

When you broke my heart, I said you only wanted half of me

My imagination's too creative

They see demon, I see angel, angel (Angel), angel

Without the halo, wingless angel

Falling, falling, but I never thought you'd leave me

Falling, falling, needed something to believe in, oh

I thought you were the one

But it was all in my head

It was all in my head

runnin' from your issues

I figure we can work it out, hmm

Painted a picture; I thought I drew you well

I had a vision of seeing what isn't there

Caught in the moment, tangled up in your sheets

When you broke my heart, said you only wanted half of me

My imagination's too creative

They see Cain and I see Abel (Abel), Abel (Abel), Abel

I know you're able, willin’ and able

Falling, falling, but I thought that you would need me

Falling, falling, needed something to believe in, oh

I thought that you were the one

But it was all in my head

It was all in my head

runnin’ from your issues

I figure we can work it out, hmm

Wanted you to grow, but, boy, you wasn't budding

Everything you are made you everything you aren’t

I saw your potential without seein' credentials

Maybe that's the issue (Yeah, yeah)

Said maybe that's the issue, ah

Can’t hold that s**t against you, ah

Guess I did it to myself, yeah

Thought you were somebody else, you

Thought you were somebody else, you (You)

Thought you were somebody else, you"

"Girls with tattoos who like getting in trouble

Been through some bad s**t, I should be a sad b***h

Who woulda thought it'd turn me to a savage?

Rather be tied up with calls and not strings

Wearing a ring, but ain't gon' be no "Mrs."

My smile is beamin' (Yeah), my skin is gleamin' (Is gleamin')

The way it shine, I know you've seen it (You've seen it)"

"One taught me love

One taught me patience

And one taught me pain

Now, I'm so amazing

Say I've loved and I've lost

But that's not what I see

So, look what I got

Look what you taught me

And for that, I say

Thank you, next

I'm so f****n' grateful for my ex

I ain't worried 'bout nothin'

Plus, I met someone else

We havin' better discussions

I know they say I move on too fast

But this one gon' last

'Cause her name is Ari

And I'm so good with that

She taught me love (Love)

She taught me patience (Patience)

How she handles pain (Pain)

That s**t's amazing (Yeah, she's amazing)

I've loved and I've lost (Yeah, yeah)

But that's not what I see (Yeah, yeah)

'Cause look what I've found (Yeah, yeah)

Ain't no need for searching, and for that, I say

Thank you, next (Thank you, next)

Thank you, next (Thank you, next)

I'm so f****n' grateful for my ex"

"You got me some type of way (Hmm)

Ain't used to feelin' this way (Mmm-mmm)

I do not know what to say (Yeah, yeah)

But I know I shouldn't think about it

You could hit it in the mornin' (Mornin')

Yeah, yeah, like it's yours

I know it ain't right

But I don't care

Practically on my knees (Yeah, yeah)

But I know I shouldn't think about it

You know what you're doin' to me

Actin' all innocent, please

When I know you out here thinkin' 'bout it

Then you realize she's right there (Yeah)

And you're at home like, "Damn, she can't compare"

Say I'm trippin' if you feel like

But you without me ain't right (Ain't right)

You could call me crazy 'cause I want you

Say I'm trippin' and it ain't right

But you without me ain't nice (Ain't nice, yeah)

Break up with your girlfriend (Girlfriend)

Yeah, yeah, 'cause I'm bored"
