Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Funny you enter, warm as the day
Sun right through the window until it's gone
Gone, oh
With you in the picture, all up in my eardrum
Drunk on your whisper, what have you done to me?
Let me learn all the truth that you hide skin-deep
Touch it once, now you want alone time with me
And where's that high even come from?
Pullin' me closer into your culture, it's destiny
Yeah
[Chorus]
Ain't no shortcuts where we come from
We make diamonds from a breadcrumb
We know every single turn we take
In this bed we've made
It was in our fate
In this watercolor ocean (Watercolor ocean)
We surrender to the motion (Surrender to the motion)
We know every single turn we take
In this bed we've made
It was in our fate, oh
(Our fate, our fate, our fate, our fate, ooh)
[Verse 2]
Man say he feelin' on the future
Lay hands and then he hallelujah
It's supernatural
Ain't this that shit you been askin' for?
We syncopated and
As the world keeps changin'
You and me, we don't miss a beat
[PreChorus]
Let me learn all the truth that you hide skin-deep
(Oh, learn all the truth that you hide skin-deep)
Touch me once, now you want alone time with me
And where's that high even come from?
Pullin' me closer into your culture, it's history (History, history)
[Chorus]
Ain't no shortcuts where we come from
We make diamonds from a breadcrumb
We know every single turn we take
In this bed we've made
It was in our fate
In this watercolor ocean (In this watercolor ocean)
We surrender to the motion (We surrender to the motion)
We know every single turn we take
In this bed we've made
It was in our fate
[Outro]
Woah, our fate (Yeah)
Ain't no shortcuts where we come from
We make diamonds from a breadcrumb
We know every single turn we take
In this bed we've made
It was in our fate, yeah
