Lyrics

LOVE YOU IN THE WORST WAY
YOU KNOCK ME DOWN LIKE A HEAVYWEIGHT
WE FELL IN LOVE GOT A K O, OH NO
TOO DAMN YOUNG SO WE BROKE UP NO GO
SO MUCH FOR A WEDDING DATE

I KNOW NOBODY GETS OUT OF LOVE ALIVE
WE EITHER BREAKUP WHEN WE’RE YOUNG OR WE SAY GOODBYE WHEN WE DIE
FOR A MOMENT AT LEAST I KNOW YOU WERE MINE AND IT WAS BEAUTIFUL
BUT WINTER COMES AND ROSES DON’T SURVIVE
ITS GETTING LATE, AND I SHOULD GO

BUT I WANNA HOLD YOU, LIKE IT’S JUNE IN THE WEST END
BACK WHEN YOU WERE MY BEST FRIEND
BEFORE LOVE CAME TO KILL US
WE’RE NOT SUPPOSED TO, BUT I CAN’T LEARN MY LESSON
I MISS WHEN YOU WERE MY BEST FRIEND
BEFORE LOVE CAME TO KILL US
SO UNDER THE MASK OF THE MOON, COULD WE DANCE IN THE PAST
BEFORE LOVE …..BEFORE LOVE CAME TO KILL US

LIFE’S GOOD AND I’M GETTING PAID
BUT I THINK ABOUT YOU EVERYDAY (STILL)
WHEN I MISS YOU I MEDICATE (POUR UP DRINK, DRINK)
TEARS COME OUT LIKE A RENEGADE

CAUSE NOBODY GETS OUT OF LOVE ALIVE
WE EITHER BREAKUP WHEN WE’RE YOUNG OR WE SAY GOODBYE WHEN WE DIE
FOR A MOMENT AT LEAST I KNOW YOU WERE MINE AND IT WAS BEAUTIFUL
BUT WINTER COMES AND ROSES DON’T SURVIVE
ITS GETTING LATE….AND I SHOULD GO

BUT I WANNA HOLD YOU, LIKE IT’S JUNE IN THE WEST END
BACK WHEN YOU WERE MY BEST FRIEND
BEFORE LOVE CAME TO KILL US
WE’RE NOT SUPPOSED TO, BUT I CAN’T LEARN MY LESSON
I MISS WHEN YOU WERE MY BEST FRIEND
BEFORE LOVE CAME TO KILL US
SO UNDER THE MASK OF THE MOON, COULD WE DANCE IN THE PAST
BEFORE LOVE …..BEFORE LOVE CAME TO KILL US

UNDER UNDER THE MASK OF THE MOON, COULD WE DANCE IN THE PAST
BEFORE LOVE …..BEFORE LOVE….. BEFORE LOVE CAME TO KILL US

Most liked comments about the video

One of the most underrated artist on the planet rn! Agreed?

61 years old. Don’t care much for today’s music but When love came to kill us moved me more than anything I’ve heard in decades.

I also really appreciate how this song is not about how hard a break up is but instead she is writing about how emotional and hard love is. Not a lot of people can describe this pain of love like this. It’s devastatingly beautiful.

I feel really bad for the people who don’t know Jessie Reyez yet. “They’re missing out on thrilling,satisfying,pleasing,refreshing,sweet and enjoyable music”.

I’ve had a crush on this girl ever since I heard her voice… I can’t be alone on this man. …….

This whole album is a masterpiece someone give her a Grammy or something

This song is giving me “love on the brain” vibes. And that’s a great vibe

Holy f**k! This song straight made me feel so emotional, it reminded me of my first love who died in a horrific car accident. We had broken up for almost a year, she moved on and so did I but somehow found our way back to each other. I mean we had plans to get married and everything but things were hard for us because we were 18/19 years old and had been dating since I was 15 and she was 16. But out of no where one day she called me and I had found out she lived a few hours away, we talked for a few weeks and decided to try and pick up where we left off. I was supposed to go pick her up after I got out of work, her being stubborn as ever decided to call her mom and tell her she was driving down with a friend and was going to surprise me. At work I was so excited, I couldn’t sit still, couldn’t focus, I felt like a kid again. I couldn’t wait to see and hold my best friend and love of my life again!! Needless to say as I was clocking out of work her mom, dad and brother were waiting for me……. I never got to see her again and I refused to go to her funeral, I refused to have my Last memory of her in a casket. I will always love you mi Reyna!
