Tamara - Midnight God Lyrics

Don't put me on a pedestal
Just hold me like a child, won't you?
There's nothing you could ever do to change me

You're my midnight god
I only pray to you, pray to you when I'm lost
And when the ashes fall
You turn it all to gold
What did you see in me
That no one else saw

What did you see in me
That no one else saw
That no one else saw
What did you see in me
That no one else saw
That no one else saw

I'm holding onto faith
I tell you, "Girl, you look pretty."
(I tell you, girl, you look pretty)
A butterfly in the city I've never touched before
When I call you by your name
You're like a kid undercover
If only we had each other
I'd let my heart fall

But you're my midnight god
I only pray to you, pray to you when I'm lost
And when the ashes fall
(And when the ashes)
You turn it all to gold
(You turn it all)
What did you see in me
(What did you see)
That no one else saw
(That no one else saw)

Liz's playin' in the back of my mind
You've got an all-star shinin' on a Friday night
You had her thinkin' maybe she could be somethin' to someone and have it all

Two kids in the dark on an unmade bed
Colours dance around you the way I saw it in my head
We're picking up the pieces we scattered on the floor
Just to feel some type of way we swore we never felt before

You're holding my hand
You whisper, "Baby, whatcha thinkin'?
Do you wanna dance?
I'll take you ice skatin'
I'll meet you on the tenth
Pin it just so we remember
I'll kiss you in the heat
In the middle of December"

Had I known what I know now
Should've kept moving on
You had it coming along

I'm in the backseat of the taxi waving to you
As if I knew it would it end
Oh no, I'm falling again

And I'll write to you forever
My favourite scarlet letter
I wish I could be better
I could be better
For you, I'd change the weather
I'd put it all together
I wish I could be better
I could be better
I could be better
