Текст Solange Knowles – Some Things Never Seem To Fucking Work

I’ve seen you with the lights off
I’ve seen you when you think you love me
I’ve seen you with your hat off
I’m dreaming of a time when you knew me

So baby, is it all you’ve got?
Tell me if you got some more-ore
I’m thinking of some time off, off
I’m dreaming of a time when you knew me

Some things never seem to fucking work

Remember when you kissed me (kissed me)
At Jimmy John’s when I was 17
Convinced myself you were the shit (were the shit)
Convinced myself you loved me

So baby, is that all you’ve got?
Tell me if you got some more-ore
I’m thinking of some time off, off
I’m dreaming of a time when you knew me

So maybe then we’re better off
Well maybe if it’s all you wanted
Leave me alone
Leave me alone

So maybe then we’re better off
Well maybe if it’s all you wanted
Leave me alone
Leave me alone

Remember when you missed me (missed me)
We’d accidentally meet purposely
Convinced that we were meant to be (meant to be)
Convinced myself you loved me

So baby, is it all you’ve got?

So maybe then we’re better off
Well maybe if it’s all you wanted
Leave me alone
Leave me alone

So maybe then we’re better off (better off)
Well maybe if it’s all you wanted
Leave me alone
Leave me alone

Some things never seem to fucking work

So tell me, is it real love or some kind of mistake
They made together that we couldn’t anticipate?
And my attraction to you made all that much worse
But it’s either something maybe
A longing and hatred of myself
Not wanting to end up alone

So the night I saw you, I could pretend I thought you
Were beautiful and that’s all I ever really saw
But the truth is, as much as I hate it, you were a bore
So I try and deny it, I tried to fight it
But I brought your ride home on the 95 bus
Never for the diamond line to us
Would eventually become an us

So to the others looking from the outside in
So now I’m calling out for a way
To give myself in
Remember when you kissed me, when I was 17
Convinced myself that you were the shit
That you loved me

So maybe then we’re better off
Well maybe if it’s all you wanted
Leave me alone
Leave me alone

So maybe then we’re better off (better off)
Well maybe if it’s all you wanted
Leave me alone
Leave me alone

Some things never seem to fucking work
