Lyrics

Time Machine

Yeah

Baby, if I had a time machine I'd go back to 1983 Maybe I would chill with Basquiat I'd be out there playing make-believe I'd be in the streets of NYC Sippin' lemonade likely 21st Century me, 20th Century dreams

And tell me does it feel like that? Does it really feel like that? 'Cause baby, if it's real like that...

Then please don't wait on me, on me Please don't wait on me, on me Please don't wait on me, on me (Take 'em back to 1983) (Shining down, look like a Christmas tree) (I don't give a fuck, I'm doing me) (Time machine, time machine) Please don't wait on me, on me (Take 'em back to 1983) (Shining down, look like a Christmas tree) (I don't give a fuck, I'm doing me) (Time machine, time machine)

Baby if I had a time machine I'd go back to 1993 Maybe I would play with Kurt Cobain Maybe I would get on MTV Maybe I would cruise all day Ride a longboard, foosball fates I don't care what anyone says Everyone is disconnected these days 'Cause everyone is looking at their phone Tryna feel like they are less alone (So wrong) And I'm here to tell them that they're wrong (So wrong)

'Cause baby, if it feels like that Tell me if it feels like that Tell me if it's real like that

Then please don't wait on me, on me Please don't wait on me, on me Please don't wait on me, on me (Take 'em back to 1983) (Shining down, look like a Christmas tree) (I don't give a fuck, I'm doing me) (Time machine, time machine) Please don't wait on me, on me (Take 'em back to 1983) (Shining down, look like a Christmas tree) (I don't give a fuck, I'm doing me) (Time machine, time machine)

Willow on Dork

flowerovlove's 'American Wedding' video features cameos from WILLOW and alemeda

The singer joins Niall Horan's UK arena run later this year

WILLOW: "I want to challenge myself"

Willow ditches genre-hopping for a funk-fuelled exploration of self-love on ‘empathogen', an album bursting with new-found confidence after a cathartic rock era.

It looks like Willow and St. Vincent have been in the studio together

Smith has shared a photo from the studio featuring the singer-songwriter, sparking speculation that the two artists have been collaborating on new music.

Willow Kayne has collaborated with Toddla and General Levy on a new single, ‘Mr Universe’

The experimental tune is her fourth single of the year, following February’s ‘Playground Antics’.
