Tangerine (Remix) lyrics
Verse 1
Glass Animals
As cold as an old ice cream sandwich, as focused as Mr. Miyagi
You poke at your phone posting aerial photos of you and your smoothie
I can't keep on making you happy 'cause you got issues with your daddy
I miss ramen noodles and laughing at you and your gran in-home movies
Before chorusGlass Animals
But I wish I could show you more of yourself
I wish I could make you somebody else
But I left it way too late
Are you stuck in your own ways?
[I'm begging]
ChorusGlass Animals
Hands, knees, please, tangerine, come on back to me
You got what I need, tangerine, do this for me
Hands, knees, please, tangerine, sugar, honey, sweet
Got what I need, tangerine
Verse 2Arlo Parks
I wanna see you bloomin' like a tulip
With your head like peach
I'm readin' through your letters
I remember when you saw through me
And now within your pale blue eyes
There's nothin' I can keep
I used to know the way you smiled
And how you liked your tea
Now, you spirited away
Catch a gleam in the eye of the ghost that you are
It'll never be okay
You're a star of the past, gonna miss that sweet little tangerine
Bridge
[Oh my God
[Drop the beat]
Verse 3Glass Animals
You've been dreamlessly sleepin' for years
Super clear since the late 1990s
You only look at me properly now
When you're drunk watching movies
Where are you? What happened? I want what we had
Where you gone? Where you hidin'?
It's 2:23, you got Friends on repeat, on repeat, on repeat, on repeat, on repeat, on re—

I wish I could show you more of yourself
I wish I could make you somebody else
But I left it way too late
Are you stuck in your own ways? [I'm begging]
