Rain! He wanted it comfortable, I wanted that pain
He wanted a bride, I was making my own name
Chasing that fame, he stayed the same
All of me changed like midnight
Rain! He wanted it comfortable, I wanted that pain
He wanted a bride, I was making my own name
Chasing that fame, he stayed the same
All of me changed like midnight
[Verse 1]
My town was a wasteland
Full of cages, full of fences
Pageant queens and big pretenders
But for some, it was paradise
My boy was a montage
A slow-motion, love potion
Jumping off things in the ocean
I broke his heart 'cause he was nice
He was sunshine, I was midnight rain
[Chorus]
He wanted it comfortable, I wanted that pain
He wanted a bride, I was making my own name
Chasing that fame, he stayed the same
All of me changed like midnight
[Verse 2]
It came like a postcard
Picture perfect shiny family
Holiday peppermint candy
But for him, it's every day
So I peered through a window
A deep portal, time travel
All the love we unravel
And the life I gave away
Cause he was sunshine, I was midnight rain
[Chorus]
He wanted it comfortable, I wanted that pain
He wanted a bride, I was making my own name
Chasing that fame, he stayed the same
All of me changed like midnight rain
He wanted it comfortable, I wanted that pain
He wanted a bride, I was making my own name
Chasing that fame, he stayed the same
All of me changed like midnight
[Outro]
I guess sometimes we all get
Just what we wanted, just what we wanted
And he never thinks of me
Except for when I'm on TV
I guess sometimes we all get
Some kind of haunted, some kind of haunted
And I never think of him
Except on midnights like this
(Midnights like this, midnights like this)
Mvua! Alitaka iwe vizuri, nilitaka maumivu hayo
Alitaka bi harusi, nilikuwa nikitengeneza jina langu mwenyewe
Kufukuza umaarufu huo, alikaa vivyo hivyo
Wote walibadilika kama usiku wa manane
[Mstari wa 1]
Jiji langu lilikuwa uwanja wa nyika
Kamili ya mabwawa, kamili ya uzio
Malkia wa kurasa na wadanganyifu wakubwa
Lakini kwa wengine, ilikuwa paradiso
Kijana wangu alikuwa montage
Mwendo wa polepole, upendo
Kuruka vitu baharini
Nilivunja moyo wake kwa sababu alikuwa mzuri
Alikuwa jua, nilikuwa mvua ya usiku wa manane
[Chorus]
Alitaka iwe vizuri, nilitaka maumivu hayo
Alitaka bi harusi, nilikuwa nikitengeneza jina langu mwenyewe
Kufukuza umaarufu huo, alikaa vivyo hivyo
Wote walibadilika kama usiku wa manane
[Mstari wa 2]
Ilikuja kama kadi ya posta
Picha kamili ya familia yenye kung'aa
Likizo ya Peppermint Pipi
Lakini kwake, ni kila siku
Kwa hivyo niliangalia kupitia dirishani
Portal ya kina, kusafiri kwa wakati
Upendo wote ambao tunafunua
Na maisha niliyotoa
Maana alikuwa jua, nilikuwa mvua ya usiku wa manane
[Chorus]
Alitaka iwe vizuri, nilitaka maumivu hayo
Alitaka bi harusi, nilikuwa nikitengeneza jina langu mwenyewe
Kufukuza umaarufu huo, alikaa vivyo hivyo
Wote walibadilika kama mvua ya usiku wa manane
Alitaka iwe vizuri, nilitaka maumivu hayo
Alitaka bi harusi, nilikuwa nikitengeneza jina langu mwenyewe
Kufukuza umaarufu huo, alikaa vivyo hivyo
Wote walibadilika kama usiku wa manane
[Outro]
Nadhani wakati mwingine sisi sote tunapata
Kile tu tulichotaka, kile tulichotaka
Na yeye huwa hafikirii
Isipokuwa wakati nipo kwenye Runinga
Nadhani wakati mwingine sisi sote tunapata
Aina fulani ya haunted, aina fulani ya haunted
Na sikuwahi kumfikiria
Isipokuwa kwenye usiku wa manane kama hii
(Usiku wa manane kama hii, usiku wa manane kama hii)
