Lyrics
Tangerine
Verse 1:
Hazelnut eyes in a dim lit room
Isn’t something I’m accustomed to
Few laps around the sun with a different one
But here I am orbiting you
You’re like an evening sunset with a silhouette of trees
You’re like the first sigh of relief during a seaside breeze
And when the morning birds sing and do what they do
Well I assume that they’re thinking of you (oo)
Caterpillars in cocoons
They’re hatching in my stomach and I don’t know what to do
Because now we’re heating up and It feels like a lagoon
Girl I’m trying to relieve steam underneath your blue moon
You got me spinning in circles and falling to the ground
Daydreaming and singing like nobody’s around
So tell me girl how does it sound
Baby can I lay you down
Chorus:
And when I’m feeling low her loving gets me high
She always keeps me moving when I’m barely getting by
You’re all I want and all I need
Maybe we can be
So why not come a little close and let me pick your mind
Tangle me up, all up in your vines
You’re all I want and all I need
Sweet tangerine
Verse 2:
And I was sipping real slowly
On my St. Ides 40
Baby caught me off guard
Chilling out with the homies
Got me doing double takes now and I feeling a little wobbly
She got everything need like baileys in my coffee
Can I take you for a ride or is it too soon
Because I’m addicted to your bad attitude you’re so rude
She cool like my liquor but she hot as the summer
And we’ll be shining like the stars that always hover above her my lover
Verse 3: Descendant
She’s my sweet citrus sap in the bong (barn?)
She don’t even know the lyrics but she’s rapping along
Not a centerfold model thats advertising for bottles
She's just a hippy in the city that's pulling me full throttle
Got the hots but i just flop when opportunity’s knocking
Introversion gets the worst of me when I see those pupils poppin
Stop and stare before turns around and notices the creep in me
But something's telling me don't let her get away easily, ‘cause I
Can’t get her off my mental
So hard to act gentile
When all i wanna do is skip the talk and walk along your waterfall
Keeping you from sleeping on the number that you gotta call
Time is ticking on the more we wait, yeah
And I won't let my seconds suffocate
And I won't let you run off with another guy
I’d be a fool if i let her pass by ‘cause...
Bridge:
She’s my sweet tangerine
Underneath the turquoise sky
I could waste away the day
Just thinking about her eyes
Oh and lately I felt crazy
With this nonsense on my mind
Yeah she hid from me all winter
But she bloomed in summer time
Chorus: 2x
And when I’m feeling low her loving gets me high
She always keeps me moving when I’m barely getting by
You’re all I want and all I need
Maybe we can be
So why not come a little close and let me pick your mind
Tangle me up, all up in your vines
You’re all I want and all I need
Sweet tangerine
