Lyrics

I thought I could make it better But I keep on hurting you I thought we could see tomorrow (Yesterday) Hear me out, hear me out girl I see you talking about yesterday, yesterday, yesterday, yesterday, yesterday How I won't talk about yesterday, yesterday, yesterday, yesterday, yesterday There ain't no going back now Damn girl slow it down Put a groove on it If you see it's my pass we can't move forward Then it turns into the worst romance Stepping on my toes like your first slow dancing I just want you in a bomb scene I hope you blow Palm trees in Palm Springs But instead of going to bed we keep going back Now my prom queen's in the wrong scene She's telling me love's free, I say it's expensive Now my prom queen's in the wrong scene She's telling me love's free I say it's expensive You tell me I offend you, I say you defensive So I'd rather spend a dime Every time I do, my stay is extensive I just give you good sex in place of devotion, so cool I backstroke a deal like promotion Save that shit, for another fly guy Trying to dive and come out on the other side of twilight I thought I could make it better But I keep on hurting you oh baby, baby I thought we could see you tomorrow (Yesterday) Hear me out, hear me out girl I see you talking about yesterday, yesterday, yesterday, yesterday There ain't no going back now We should've seen it like I see from the aerial town every day we go in circles like a merry go around I wanna marry your smile, baby bury your frown Stones all around you like a burial ground Do you want your sunshine like I got it in the bag Don't be fucking it up the future leaving probs in the past You're my princess, I wanna see you with your life tiara on the mirror dancing king Cierra on, I love it, love the way you does it, you'll be killing one the jealous of all fuckers Say you wants mine like a straight man with his ape off She does what I like, Kate spade on Kate moss, she want to take off from work, so we can take off but it's me, I could never blame you I just decided that this fairytale never true like I thought I could make it better But I keep on hurting you oh baby, baby I thought we could see tomorrow (Yesterday) Hear me out, hear me out girl I see you talking about yesterday, yesterday, yesterday, yesterday How I won't talk about yesterday, yesterday, yesterday, yesterday There ain't no going back now (Autotune) The wings of them take us back then you were mine I thought I could make it better But I keep on hurting you I thought we could see tomorrow (Yesterday) Hear me out, hear me out girl I see you talking about yesterday, yesterday, yesterday, yesterday How I won't talk about yesterday, yesterday, yesterday yesterday There ain't no going back now
