Uh

I know my lovers gunna feel me

[Verse]

I said

Funny how things work out with first loves

Remember things from first kisses to first hugs

Reminiscing what we missing, maybe it's just tradition

We strengthened lovers vision, getting closer through our distance

But then it all unfolded, we played the fools

Going back and forth, second chances gave a few

Friends always comparing another's moves

Had our own thing hate when they compared us too

Cause some wanted Ye and Kim, others wanted Jay and Bey

Obama and Michelle, I just wanted you and me

Heart knowing I should leave, mind wanting me to stay

Between the two chose wrong and I was left astray

A young love so confused thought you'd be there through the thick

Put me in the slums and I couldn't climb the pits

I couldn't breathe, I couldn't eat, I couldn't sleep

Homies screaming "get a life" not understanding you was it

Im smooth though

[Hook]

Said I know you long gone

But at times when Im alone I catch..

Catch some midnight memories

Of our midnight memories

I know you long gone

But at times when Im alone I catch..

Catch some midnight memories

Of our midnight memories

[Verse 2]

May have lost you yea, but still a winner

I always kept it cool during the winter

We made a joke out of the pretenders

Are reigns in the ranks

Our biggest problem we ain't account for all the littlest things

Like our minute phone calls, smileys through the text

Defending one another, letting love heal the stress

Somewhere down the line we lost track of each other

Felt the guilt in our hearts but couldn't get it off our chest

We lied cause at times the truth hurt us too

Trynna forget that we did what the scandalous do

Forgiveness is only welcome when that story from you

Can be opaque for so long til that light seep through

We had started to believe in the phony tendencies

Cause what seemed legit to me was our promising dream

But you became the one I couldn't have

And Ironically, I always felt the one I couldn't haves

The one I need, Im smooth though

[Hook]

[Verse 3]

But I'm smooth though

I got better with time, it's been some years you still tickle my mind

I still catch flashes, of what we couldve been

I still catch flashes, of what you prolly did with them

That ain't none of my business but is it?

I mean I taught you that

You know everything you doing girl I taught you that

I mean I'm doing my thing, but the feeling ain't the same

So I admit it many times yes I want you back

Remember times I was the cure to your afflictions

Asked to me come over I would be there in some minutes

I had me climbing through your window just to get into your cribess

Let a nigga sleepover disrespecting mommy wishes

I remember all it vivid, fighting in your bed

Know I put it down, dreamed peaceful when you slept

Those that really understand know what I'm saying next

Cause you know that shit is real disregarding morning breath

Stevie Wonder accepts the fact he wasn't meant to see

I've learned to accept that you aren't here with me

To justify we say it, that is "wasn't meant to be"

Could've made it "meant to be"

We just chose it differently

Im smooth though

[Hook]
