Better Than I Imagined Robert Glasper, H.E.R., Me'Shell NdegéOcello

Passive, past it I've been thinking 'bout mad shit Happened, action Baby, we never lasted Magic madness Maybe you was just gassin' But it was better than I imagined Drastic acting To you we was just practice Sadness, mask it Hated you with a passion Had it granted Baby, I didn't cap it 'Cause it was better than I imagined Thought it'd be worse 'Cause it hurts me But still I can't See myself with no one else 'Cause it was better than I imagined Hey-hey-hey Better than I imagined Hey-hey-hey Trust me, love me You know I could never make you Stay true Hate to say it But it's too late My expectations Too low you can't relate to Baby, but I don't blame you Baby, you were the one I always escaped to Day two, replace you Maybe I'm just afraid to Call you Need you to tell me if it's okay to Is it okay I... Thought it'd be worse 'Cause it hurts me But still I can't See myself with no one else 'Cause it was better than I imagined Hey-hey-hey Better than I imagined Hey-hey-hey 'Cause it was better than I imagined Hey-hey-hey Better than I imagined Hey-hey-hey Hey, uhm... In the scramble to get a flight I lost my phone and... I'm calling you from the hotel phone I couldn't get a flight back to the States I realize you're the only number I know by heart Last time I was here, we were together, remember? I tried to tell you how I felt I... Then you stopped me, you were... Then you said, "Don't ruin it" "'Cause this is better than I could have ever imagined" I hope you're okay staying inside I hope you're not lonely And, I'll call again Maybe you'll answer 'Cause this is better than I could have ever imagined
