Dear god Tate McRae Lyrics
(Yeah)
Lay there
Back of my mind, he stay there
Pops up time to time like, “Hey there”
Haven’t seen you in two years, but, baby, we still breathe the same air
New love and it’s almost workin’
And I never used to be this person
But here I am
Hands on my chest and my knees on the carpet
Hopin’ you’ll stop it (Ah)
Dear God
Take his kiss right out of my brain
Take the pleasure out of my pain
Take the way he’d used to say, “I love you”
Dear God
Get his imprint out of my back
Take “amazing” out of our sex
Take away the way I still might want to
Facts
All the memories, babe, I play ’em all, play ’em all, play ’em all, play ’em all back
To erase his name, I’d give it all, give it all, give everything that I have
All my no-good thoughts, I pray about, pray about, pray about, pray about that
Take away the way I still might want to
Hottest
Thing I’ve ever touched, just bein’ honest
Really tryna be good, I promise
That’s why I’m here
With my hands on my chest and my knees on the carpet
Hopin’ you’ll stop it (Ah)
Dear God
Take his kiss right out of my brain
Take the pleasure out of my pain
Take the way he’d used to say, “I love you”
Dear God
Get his imprint out of my back
Take “amazing” out of our sex
Take away the way I still might want to (No)
Facts
All the memories, babe, I play ’em all, play ’em all, play ’em all, play ’em all back
To erase his name, I’d give it all, give it all, give everything that I have
All my no-good thoughts, I pray about, pray about, pray about, pray about that
Take away the way I still might want to
Dear God, uh, uh, uh-uh
Dear God, uh, uh
Dear God, I hope you’re listenin’
(I play ’em all, play ’em all, play ’em all, play ’em all back)
I pray it ain’t him I’m missin’
Dear God, I hope you’re listenin’
(I play ’em all, play ’em all, play ’em all, play ’em all back)
I pray it ain’t him I’m missin’
Dear God, I hope you’re listenin’
Dear God, dear God, dear God
I’d give it all, give it all, give everything that I have
Dear God, dear God, dear God (I pray about, pray about, pray about)
