Sweetheart Lyrics by Francesca Wexler

I Promise

2021

[Intro]
Sweetheart
My sweetheart
[Chorus]
My sweetheart say
I sleepwalk say
I think you got a screw loose
You might need a Deepak, baby
They caught you on the streetcar, baby
[Verse 1]
That don’t mean I need a fucking Deepak
You got my in-laws looking at me odd
Y’all chameleons, y’all play sheep
Change your stripes to appease zebras
Birds of a feather flock, I’m a peacock
You put me in the fire like I’m Meshach
But I’m Joseph, see my coat it’s neon
You ain’t trying to hear my two cents
It’s cheap talk to you
To you, to you, to you
I can only reach you in my dreams
You came to me when I was in my sleep
I tried to talk but I could only sing
It felt like I had eaten mescaline
And when I looked at you, you looked right into me
And you fit like an old t-shirt
I could taste how good we once were
You used to give me fever
You still give me fever
Fever, fever
[Refrain]
I feel, I feel, I feel it coming
Creeping on me, fever, fever
I feel, I feel, I feel it coming
Creeping on me
Fever, fever
[Verse 2]
I tried but I couldn’t get a grip
You’re the sickness, you’re the medicine
Fishnets glittering, strawberry tongue got a smattering
Of freckled specs that’s the melanin
We existed in the back of cars
Coloured melon and tangerine
(Tangerine, tangerine)
Tambourine, baby playin' me
Sour faced growing raisin trees
Remember when you said you hated me?
Casually like you were asking me
If I was making tea (Honey, would you like two sugar cubes?)
If I was making tea (Some cream?)
Was all this make believe?
Baby, answer me
[Chorus]
My sweetheart say
I sleepwalk say
I think you got a screw loose
You might need a Deepak, baby
They caught you on the streetcar, baby
[Bridge]
I tried, I couldn’t get a grip
I tried, I couldn’t get a grip
I tried, I couldn’t get a grip
I tried, I tried, I tried
[Refrain]
I feel, I feel, I feel it coming
Creeping on me, fever, fever
