10k Hours

[Intro: Jhené Aiko]

Yeah

One, two, check

Check, one, two

[Verse 1: Jhené Aiko]

I know what it's like to lose, do you? Do you?

Have you ever loved someone, then lost that one?

You can't even call they phone

You can't even ask how they day was

Nothing in life's guaranteed, you'll see, uh

I'm not being difficult, I just see things differently

When I say I wanna see you, that means something deeper to me

[Chorus: Jhené Aiko]

I've been missing you for ten thousand hours (Thousand hours)

I cannot let go, ten thousand memories (Memories)

I've been missing you for ten thousand hours (Thousand hours), yeah

I cannot let go, ten thousand memories (Memories)

[Verse 2: Jhené Aiko]

Have you ever loved someone, then lost that one?

Have you ever missed someone that ain't coming back? Uh

You can't even tell that one 'cause they're not here to hear it

Do you hear me?

Nothing in life's guaranteed, you'll see

I'm not being difficult, I just see things differently

You don't see the urgency (You don't see the urgency)

That really worries me (That really worries me)

The problem is that we think, naturally, we have time but you'll find

Anything can happen, don't take it for granted

You know

[Chorus: Jhené Aiko & Nas]

I've been missing you for ten thousand hours (Ten thousand hours)

I cannot let go, ten thousand memories (Ten thousand memories)

I've been missing you for ten thousand hours (Ten thousand hours), uh

I cannot let go (No), ten thousand memories (Ten thousand memories, yo)

[Verse 3: Nas]

Thinkin' back on some good times we had with some bad people, like

"I shoulda saw she was see through" or "He was evil", like

"I wasted my good experience with these people", like

"Guess it was meant to be, you was teaching me life"

So only half that memory's worthwhile

We had beef but at least there's a birth of a child

Cooled and flipped it, reminiscing bad times with good people's terrific

Beautifully different 'cause we still kick it

You said we can't be intimate, you said we can't go there

If this thing is going nowhere, it's so weird

Now it's cold, thought I had control, thought I took your soul

Nah, I took your mind, engraved my name

You told me that my mind is your favorite place to hang

Ten thousand hours turned to ten thousand bridal flowers

What was mine is ours

How many soulmates we get in this lifetime?

Right now's the right time, you the wife kind

[Outro: Jhené Aiko]

You could search your whole life tryna find

A love as good as the time we had, we had (We had)

Every person that comes in your life

Here for a limited time

So be fair, be there (Be there), uh

Always planning, never manifesting

Father, please help me send him this message

Always planning, never manifesting

Father, please help me send him this message
