Weightless by Romy Lyrics
(lyrics from Instagram live performance + Jamie xx Essential Mix for BBC Radio 1)
[Verse 1]
I know maybe this came out of the blue
And maybe what I’m saying is a little too soon
But it’s getting hard to resist
Bending over backwards under my skin
Is this how it feels when something begins?
Every part is weightless
[Chorus]
Yeah, I didn't believe I deserved to feel
This high up off of the ground
And when she looks at me I hide how I feel
But I think that she's figured it out
[Verse 2]
I heard someone say that "when you know, you know”
And that it’s okay not to take it slow
'Cause I don’t wanna grow without her
I was at a party and she was at home
All I really wanted was to be with her alone
It’s better with her arms around me
[Chorus]
And I didn't believe I deserved to feel
This high up off of the ground
And when she looks at me I hide how I feel
I think that she's figured it out
[Verse 3]
Yeah, you've surprised me
And I don't take this lightly
'Cause I know what it's like to lose someone
And I know, right here
I will try to do the right thing
'Cause I don't want this to go on
[Verse 1]
I know maybe this came out of the blue
And maybe what I’m saying is a little too soon
But it’s getting hard to resist
Bending over backwards under my skin
Is this how it feels when something begins?
Every part is weightless
[Chorus]
Yeah, I didn't believe I deserved to feel
This high up off of the ground
And when she looks at me I hide how I feel
But I think that she's figured it out
[Verse 2]
I heard someone say that "when you know, you know”
And that it’s okay not to take it slow
'Cause I don’t wanna grow without her
I was at a party and she was at home
All I really wanted was to be with her alone
It’s better with her arms around me
[Chorus]
And I didn't believe I deserved to feel
This high up off of the ground
And when she looks at me I hide how I feel
I think that she's figured it out
[Verse 3]
Yeah, you've surprised me
And I don't take this lightly
'Cause I know what it's like to lose someone
And I know, right here
I will try to do the right thing
'Cause I don't want this to go on
