Love Between... - Kali Uchis

Three years, me and you How can so much love be reduced to a short story? I know you gave it all for me Couldn't take that you moved away So much space to make mistakes, I'm sorry We both got hurt because of me Now, I'm stuck here Between love and lonely Your sweet smile, it haunts me Are you longing for me? Or am I the only one who needs you? So, put me down or pull me out, oh Now and then we speak But nothing beats being in the same room with you Laughing life through with you If suddenly my dreams came true All I'd wanna do is talk to you 'bout it But I'll have to do without it 'Cause you left me Between love and lonely Your sweet smile, it haunts me Are you longing for me? Or am I the only one who needs you? So, put me down or pull me out, oh Between love and lonely Your sweet smile, it haunts me Are you longing for me? Or am I the only?

Somewhere between your heart and mine There's a window, I can't see through There's a wall so high, it reaches the sky Somewhere between me and you I love you so much, I can't let you go And sometimes I believe you love me But somewhere between your heart and mine There's a door without any key Somewhere between your heart and mine There's a window, I can't see through There's a wall so high, it reaches the sky Somewhere between me and you Somewhere between your heart and mine There's a love that I don't understand It's there for a while then it fades like a smile And I'm left in the middle again Somewhere between your heart and mine There's a window, I can't see through There's a wall so high, it reaches the sky Somewhere between me and you Somewhere between me and you

Maybe this is not so black and white? Maybe this is not just day and night? Maybe we're the shadows in between dusk and dawn? I remember my body on the floor Against the dress just staring at the door I don't know if it's ever been so quiet in New York If I come home Will you be forgiving, forgiving me for Thinking I needed to be needed some more? That maybe the shadows between the dusk and dawn Proved me wrong I'm going through the motions to survive Teach me how to fast forward or rewind If this is being human where have I've been all this time? Now looking at it from the other side Why'd we set the smoke alarm on fire? Everybody knows two wrongs don't ever make it right If I come home Will you be forgiving, forgiving me for Thinking I needed to be needed some more? That maybe the shadows between the dusk and dawn Proved me wrong Aah, aah Dusk and dawn Aah, aah Proved me wrong Aah, aah Dusk and dawn, no You proved me wrong Maybe this is not so black and white? Maybe this is not just day and night? Maybe we're the shadows in between dusk and dawn?

Drink up baby, stay up all night With the things you could do You won't but you might The potential you'll be that you'll never see The promises you'll only make Drink up with me now And forget all about the pressure of days Do what I say and I'll make you okay And drive them away The images stuck in your head People you've been before That you don't want around anymore That push and shove and won't bend to your will I'll keep them still Drink up baby, look at the stars I'll kiss you again, between the bars Where I'm seeing you there with your hands in the air Waiting to finally be caught Drink up one more time, and I'll make you mine Keep you apart, deep in my heart Separate from the rest, where I like you the best And keep the things you forgot People you've been before That you don't want around anymore That push and shove and won't bend to your will I'll keep them still

Between the wars we dance Between the wars we left Don't wake me yet Don't wake me yet And still the rest Hasn't happened, hasn't happened yet Between the wars we'll stay Fading echoes spin away Lost in memories, in memories And still the rest Hasn't happened, hasn't happened yet Don't wake me Don't take me yet Don't wake me Don't take me yet Between the wars we'll stay Fading echoes spin away Lost in memories Lost in memories

Do you fall quiet 'cause I'm in the mud? Is your heart violent 'cause it got a cut? I've been carving your name on the walls of my brain You say it's my fault 'cause I call you late Is it reciprocated? I can never get you out my head Is it okay that you're fucking with me once again? Is it reciprocated? I can never get you out my head, head (yeah) (Will you ever let me sleep all night?) (Will you ever let me sleep?) Circling life like it's a fishbowl Playing with fire, feel like we're on a roll I was running my hands through your hair yesterday I know it's your fault 'cause you didn't stay Is it reciprocated? I can never get you out my head Is it okay that you're fucking with me once again? Is it reciprocated? I can never get you out my head, head (yeah) Is it reciprocated? I can never get you out my head Is it okay that you're fucking with me once again? Is it reciprocated? I can never get you out my head, head

فوسط زحمة وناس كتير وطريق أنا ماشي فيه عكس السير وسط الطموح والأمل والتمني فاضلي خطوة توصلني فوسط حاجات ومكيفات بحاول أنسى كل اللي فات في وسط صدري ضلعي مكسور ومن خلاله قلبي شايف نور أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع فوسط الليل وأنا بعيد عن البشر شفت نور يشبه نور القمر بس القمر مسيره يفارق ويسيبني تاني مع الوحدة أحارب فوسط قصة حب يعني وهمية كان لازم أصدق اصل الوحدة قوية مش كل المشاعر حقيقية أنا شفت نور معرفتش اغمض عنيا أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع أنا كنت فاكر اني طاير وأتاريني على وشي بقع أنا كنت فاكر إني هوصل لكني بهرب من الوجع
