Better Than I Imagined (KAYTRANADA Remix)

[Verse 1: H.E.R.]

Passive, past it, I've been thinking 'bout mad shit

Happened, action, baby, we never lasted

Magic, madness, maybe you was just gassin'

But it was better than I imagined

Drastic acting, to you, it was just practice

Sadness, mask it, hated you with a passion

Had it, granted, baby, I didn't cap it

'Cause it was better than I imagined

[Chorus: H.E.R.]

Thought it'd be worse 'cause it hurts me

But still, I can't

See myself with no one else

'Cause it was better than I imagined

Better than I imagined

[Verse 2: H.E.R.]

Trust me, love me, no one could ever makе you

Stay true, hate to say it, but it's too late

My еxpectations too low, you can't relate to

Baby, but I don't blame you

Baby, you were the one I always escaped to

Dated, to replace you, maybe I'm just afraid to

Phone you, need you to tell me if it's okay too

Is it okay?

[Chorus: H.E.R.]

I thought it'd be worse 'cause it hurts me

But still, I can't

See myself with no one else

'Cause it was better than I imagined

Better than I imagined

'Cause it was better than I imagined

Better than I imagined

[Verse 3: Meshell Ndegéocello]

Yeah, hey, um

On the scramble to get a flight, I lost my phone

I'm calling you from the hotel phone

I couldn't get a flight back to the States

I realise you're the only number I know by heart

Last time I was here, we were together, remember?

I tried to tell you how I felt

"I—," and you stopped me

And you said, "Don't ruin it

'Cause this is better than I could have ever imagined"

I hope you're okay staying inside

I hope you're not lonely

And I'll call again, maybe you'll answer
