what was that

Lorde

A place in the city, a chair in the bed
I cover up all the mirrors, I can t see myself yet
I wear smoke like a wedding veil
Make a meal I won t eat
Step out into the street, alone in a sea
It comes over me
Oh, I m missing you
Yeah, I m missing you
And all the things we used to do

MDMA in the back garden, blow our pupils up
We kissed for hours straight
Well baby, what was that?
I remember saying then
This is the best cigarette of my life
Well, I want you just like that
Indio haze, we re in a sandstorm
And it knocks me out
I didn t know then
that you d never be enough for me
Since l was seventeen, I gave you everything
Now, we wake from a dream
Well, baby, what was that?

What was that?
Baby, what was that?

Do you know you re still with me
When I m out with my friends?
I stare at the painted faces that talk current affairs
You had to know this was happening
You weren t feeling my heat
When I m in the blue light, down to be myself right
I face reality
I tried (I tried)
To let (To let)
Whatever has to pass through me, pass through
But this is still a problem, I know
It might not let me go

MDMA in the back garden, blow our pupils up
We kissed for hours straight
Well baby, what was that?
I remember saying then
This is the best cigarette of my life
Well, I want you just like that
Indio haze, we re in a sandstorm
And it knocks me out
I didn t know then
But you d never be enough for me
Since l was seventeen, I gave you everything
Now, we wake from a dream

Well, baby, what was that?
Baby, what was that?

Cause words are just like that
Do you regret me? I don t
What was that? (I remember when they were around)
Baby, what was that?
