Jessie Reyez - BEFORE LOVE CAME TO KILL US Lyrics

Hmm

Love you in the worst way
You knock me down like a heavyweight, oh
We fell in love got a K.O., oh no
Too damn young, so we broke up, no go
So much for a wedding date, ha

I know nobody gets out of love alive
We either breakup when we're young
Or we say goodbye when we die
For a moment at least I know you were mine
And it was beautiful
But winter comes and roses don't survive
It's getting late
And I should go

But I wanna hold you
Like it's June in the West End
Back when you were my best friend
Before love came to kill us
We're not supposed to
But I can't learn my lesson
I miss when you were my best friend
Before love came to kill us
So under the mask of the moon
Could we dance in the past?
Before love
Before love came to kill us

Life's good and I'm getting paid, hmm
But I think about you everyday, oh no (still)
When I miss you, I medicate (pour up, drink, drink)
Tears come out like a renegade

'Cause nobody gets out of love alive
We either breakup when we're young or we say goodbye when we die
For a moment at least I know you were mine
And it was beautiful
But winter comes and roses don't survive
It's getting late
And I should go

But I wanna hold you
Like it's June in the West End
Back when you were my best friend
Before love came to kill us
We're not supposed to
But I can't learn my lesson
I miss when you were my best friend
Before love came to kill us
So under the mask of the moon
Could we dance in the past?
Before love
Before love

Under the mask of the moon
Could we dance in the past?
Before love, mmm
Before love
Before love came to kill us
