Pre-order/pre-save: https://niki.lnk.to/Nicole Nicole Tour dates & tickets: https://nikizefanya.com LYRICS: Saturday sunset, we’re lying on my bed with five hours to go Fingers entwined and so were our minds cryin, 'I don’t want you to go' You wiped away tears but not fears under the still and clear indigo You said, ‘Baby don’t cry, we’ll be fine, you’re the one thing I swear I can’t outgrow’ My mother said the younger me was a 'Pretending' prodigy, well nothing, then, much has changed Coz while you’re wolfing down liquor, my soul it gets sicker, but I’m stickin' to the screenplay, gotta say I’m okay, but answer this babe: How is it now that somehow you’re a stranger? You were mine just yesterday I prayed the block in my airway dissipates and instead deters your airplane’s way But heaven denied Destiny decried Something beautiful died too soon But I’m letting go I’m givin’ up the ghost But don’t get me wrong, I’ll always love you, that’s why I wrote you this very last song I guess this is where we say goodbye I know I’ll be alright Someday I’ll be fine but just not tonight Plunging into all kinds of diversions like blush wine and sonorous soirées But even with gin and surgin’ adrenaline, I see you’re all that can intoxicate Oceans and engines, you’re skilled at infringin' on great love affairs 'cause now my heart’s home, all I’ve known, is long gone and 10 thousand miles away Plunging into all kinds of diversions like blush wine and sonorous soirées But even with gin and surgin’ adrenaline, I see you’re all that can intoxicate Oceans and engines, you’re skilled at infringin' on great love affairs 'cause now my heart’s home, all I’ve known, is long gone and 10 thousand miles away And I’m not okay But I’m letting go I’m givin’ up the ghost But don’t get me wrong I’ll always love you and that’s why I wrote you this very last song I guess this is where we say goodbye I know I’ll be alright But just not- Tonight was the first time I stared into seas of beguiling sepia two years ago And the first time I learned real world superpowers lived in three words and could revitalize my fraying bones What do you do when your pillar crumbled down, you’ve lost all solid ground, both dreams and demons drowned, and this void’s all you’ve found and doubts light it aglow? I have so many questions But I’m pouring them into the ocean and I’m starting up my engine and I’m letting go I’m givin’ up your ghost It’s come to a close I marked the end with this last song I wrote I’m letting go This is the last falsetto I’ll ever sing to you my great, lost love Subscribe to NIKI: https://NIKI.lnk.to/subscribe Follow NIKI http://instagram.com/nikizefanya http://twitter.com/nikizefanya http://facebook.com/nikizefanya https://www.tiktok.com/@niki Subscribe to 88rising http://88rising.lnk.to/subscribe Follow 88rising http://instagram.com/88rising http://twitter.com/88rising http://facebook.com/88rising Join the community https://discord.gg/88rising #NIKI #Nicole #OceansandEngines #88rising #music #newmusic #lyricvideo
