Moments
Tove Lo Seeb Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I grew up with a lot of green
Nice things round me
I was safe, I was fine

I grew up with a lot of dreams
Plans who to be
None of them none were mine
I love freaks, I don't care if you're a wild one
I love freaks, I don't care if you're a wild one

I
I'm not the prettiest you've ever seen
But I have my moments, I have my moments
Not the flawless one, I've never been
But I have my moments

I can get a little drunk, I get into all the don'ts
But I am charming as fuck
I can get a little drunk, I get into all the don'ts
But I am charming as fuck

I can't be the perfect one
But I'll make you come
And I'm locked in your mind

You can say I don't belong
That I'm so wrong
I can tell, tell you lie

I love freaks, I don't care if you're a wild one
I love freaks, I don't care if you're a wild one

I
I'm not the prettiest you've ever seen
But I have my moments, I have my moments
Not the flawless one, I've never been
But I have my moments

I can get a little drunk, I get into all the don'ts
But I am charming as fuck
I can get a little drunk, I get into all the don'ts
But I am charming as fuck

I
I'm not the prettiest you've ever seen
But I have my moments, I have my moments
Not the flawless one, I've never been
But I have my moments, I have my moments
I can get a little drunk, I get into all the don'ts
But on good days, I am charming as fuck




I can get a little drunk, I get into all the don'ts
But on good days, I am charming as fuck

The thing about this remix is that
It sounds happy when youre happy
It sounds sad when youre sad
It also sounds euphoric when u feel excited

Its a literal artpiece.

Rino

What a masterpiece! that's the type of remixes that I like, not the crappy ones where one word is repeated over and over for 8 minutes, along with boring ass beats.

Matthew McCrory

Hippie Sabotage????
