What Was That Lyrics

EN

A place in the city a chair and a bed

I cover all the mirrors I can’t face myself yet

Smoke clings to me like a wedding veil

I cook for one step into the crowd alone in a sea


It hits me all at once I’m missing you

The weight of your absence in all we used to do

It haunts the quiet fills the space

A love I can’t erase


MDMA in the back garden eyes wide with light

We kissed for hours lost in the night

I swore This is the best cigarette of my life

And I still want you just like that


Indio haze a sandstorm swallowing sound

It knocked me over spun me around

Back then I didn’t know you’d never be enough

Since seventeen I gave you all of my love


Now we wake from a dream it slips through our hands

Was that real? Did we ever stand a chance?

What was that baby tell me what was that?

I keep asking but silence is all I have


You’re still with me when I’m out with friends

Painted faces talk pretending trends

You must have known I was fading away

No warmth in your words nothing left to say


Down at Baby’s All Right under blue neon light

I try to face truth give up the fight

I let it pass through or at least I try

But this pain it lingers refuses goodbye


MDMA in the back garden eyes like blown glass

Kissing through hours we wished would last

I said it then This is the best cigarette of my life

And I ache for you just like that night


Indio haze lost in the storm’s embrace

Didn’t know then you’d leave no trace

From seventeen you had all of me

Now we wake from what used to be


What was that? Was it love or just a flash?

‘Cause I want you still I want you just like that

When I’m in the blue light I can make it alright

Tell me baby what was that
