Lyrics Lido – Ode To The Old You
Text:
Sitting in the hotel room, realizing I messed up
Suppose to be on TV soon, I ain’t even dressed up
Papersign on the doorknob, but there is nobody here but me
Congratulations are in order, sort of
Never took a shot, so it hit me like a missil
What did I expect, girls like you don’t stay single for long
You make it hard for all the girls that I mingle among
But the thing is you gone, so bring em along
It seems I’m only honest while singing a song
So I write some more
I want to believe that faith is responsible for this
And I put that on everything
Tell me how to feel
Twenty-something missed phonecalls, all depressed like you left, but
You where never here in the first place
This life, man, I should be so happy
Barely notice when they throw money and clothes at me
Now, yeah, no fronting, the whole town buzzin’ like they know something
They don’t know nothing, but they care a lot
And somehow truth isn’t there a lot
That’s why they’re not recognizing it
Had to get this out, sorry I didn’t bin it
Yeah I’ve been infatuated, I’ve been it
Came to see the show four times cause you were in it like damn
How did I get caught up in a dream
Hen reality is better than just anything I’ve seen
Looking at me crooked like they don’t know what I mean
And I ask ’em do you really think it’s ever what it seems now
She just out of my league
Anxiety make the glove fit me
Ain’t it funny how a couple thousand girls just fell in love with me
And I don’t care cause she don’t
And they begging me to add em and I won’t cause this evening
An apple-product told me that she found something to believe it
I pray that I don’t see them
This ain’t a crush it’s a crash, six months in a flash, please don’t do the math
Drizzy on the iPad, longest shower ever, just trying to get myself together
And I know I should have told you, this is an ode to the old you
When I still had a chance even though I know I didn’t
And don’t worry that I’m honest, no one is gonna believe it cause it’s so true
Is this really something to go through, I mean I barely know you so
Tell all of your friends I don’t care, I died a little bit when you dyed your hair
So how do I react to my reaction, let’s look at the facts then
Dumb dude fell in love with you and never told you, now you found someone
So I write some more
I want to believe that faith is responsible for this
And I put that on everything
Tell me how to feel
