Lyrics of 'Ivy' by Frank Ocean

I thought that I was dreaming
When you said you love me
The start of nothin'

I had no chance to prepare
I couldn't see you coming
The start of nothin'

Oh, I could hate you now
It's quite alright to hate me now
When we both know that deep down
The feeling still, deep down, is good

If I could see through walls, I could see you're faking
If you could see my thoughts, you would see our faces
Safe in my rental like an armored truck, back then
We didn't give a fuck, back then

I ain't a kid no more
We'll never be those kids again
We'd drive to Syd's
Had the X6, back then
Back then

No matter what I did
My waves wouldn't dip, back then
Everything sucked back then
We were friends

I thought that I was dreaming
When you said you love me
The start of nothin'

I had no chance to prepare
I couldn't see you coming
The start of nothin'

Oh, I could hate you now
It's quite alright to hate me now
When we both know that deep down
The feeling still, deep down, is good

In the halls of your hotel
Arm around my shoulder, so I could tell
How much I meant to you
Meant it sincere, back then
We had time to kill, back then
You ain't a kid no more

We'll never be those kids again
It's not the same, ivory's illegal
Don't you remember?
I broke your heart last week
You'll probably feel better by the weekend
Still remember, had you going crazy
Screaming my name
The feeling, deep down, is good

I thought that I was dreaming
When you said you love me
The start of nothin'

I had no chance to prepare
I couldn't see you coming
And we started from nothing
Oh, I could hate you now
It's alright to hate me now
When we both know that deep down
The feeling still, deep down, is good

All the things I didn't mean to say
I didn't mean to do
There were things you didn't need to say
Didn't need to, need to

I could dream all night
Dream all night
I could drive all night
Drive all night
Dreaming, dreamin'
