Tame Impala - Afterthought Lyrics



Tame Impala - Afterthought Lyrics
Official




I might be crazy senses betray me
Are you parading all your lovers to pay me?
You only call me to drive you to safety
But you never stay, must be so easy to play me
I can be emotional
If you need me to
Tell me, what do I say to turn this around?
Ninety-nine days, you think I know how
I can be emotional
If you need me to
Tell me, what do I say to turn this around?
I beg you don't make me say it out loud
No matter what I do
I'm an afterthought to you
I'm not complaining but I've noticed lately
When we're alone, it's like I'm keeping you waiting
My hopes are fading 'cause nothing is changing
I'm still so far away from calling you baby
(Over a choice of feet)
(She's in between the sheets)
(No time for pleasantries)
(No time for pleasantries)
I just wanna love you more (ah-ah)
Tell me, what do I say to turn this around?
Ninety-nine days, you think I know how
I can be emotional
Like your lovers do
Tell me, what do I say to turn this around?
I beg you don't make me say it out loud
No matter what I do (no matter what I do)
I'm an afterthought to you (afterthought to you)
I'm an afterthought to you (afterthought to you)
I'm an afterthought to you (afterthought to you)
Tell me, what do I say to turn this around?
Ninety-nine days, you'd think it by now
I can be emotional
If you need me to
Tell me, what do I say to turn this around?
I beg you don't make me say it out loud
No matter what I do (no matter what I do)
I'm an afterthought to you (afterthought to you)
I said no matter what I do (no matter what I do)
I'm an afterthought to you (afterthought to you)
Just an afterthought to you, baby (afterthought to you)
I'm an afterthought to you
