Don’t You Ever

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Kae Tempest] You came into my life Like the changing of the season And suddenly the sky was a well You leaned in and whispered And I saw the future between us But I try to stop ringing that bell Long enough to stay focused On the stone, you placed into my palms The raw treasure When I felt your body and my body rise up together It all slipped into legend My eyes said forever But you said [Chorus: Daisy Beau] Don't you ever Don't you ever Don't you ever Don't don't you ever Need me [Verse 3: Kae Tempest] Years passed fears pressed weird shapes into blurred glass Words last days but the days don't last And our tongues are too burnt to taste And so we cruise Smooth as a high-heeled shoe on an old car bonnet The urge to merge was huge I don't know when it became I just want what you want But I closed my eyes subdued And I went deep deep into endless sleep My limbs yours and your limbs stuck I'd always promised I'd keep my own compass It felt good to give up [Chorus: Daisy Beau] Don't you ever Don't you ever Don't you ever Don't don't you ever Need me Don't you ever Don't you ever Don't you ever Don't, don't you ever Need me [Verse 3: Kae Tempest] So be free as you want you to be Free from the magnet the drag knit The dull need that stagnates free as I never could be You're still curled up with me Like what, this does not cancel all that out Trust, looking for shining examples I'm finding them harmful and nothing like us I'm trying to lift us both up With my arms full of all of our stuff Like will you jump every time push comes to shove You say love me don't need me I say I want that too but it feels like you don't need me enough [Chorus: Daisy Beau] Don't you ever Don't you ever Don't you ever Don't don't you ever Need me Don't you ever Don't you ever Don't you ever Don't, don't you ever Need me
