  • Meet me at midnight

    Starin' at the ceilin' with you
    Oh, you don't ever say too much
    And you don't really read into
    My melancholia

    I've been under scrutiny (yeah, oh, yeah)
    You handle it beautifully (yeah, oh, yeah)
    All of this is new to me (yeah, oh, yeah)

    I feel the lavender haze creepin' up on me
    Surreal, I'm damned if I do give a damn what people say
    No deal, the 1950s sh- they want from me
    I just wanna stay in that lavender haze

    All they keep askin' me (all they keep askin' me)
    Is if I'm gonna be your bride
    The only kind of girl they see (only kind of girl they see)
    Is a one-night or a wife

    I find it dizzying (yeah, oh, yeah)
    They're bringin' up my history (yeah, oh, yeah)
    But you aren't even listening (yeah, oh, yeah)
    (Ooh-whoa)

    I feel the lavender haze creepin' up on me
    Surreal, I'm damned if I do give a damn what people say
    No deal, the 1950s sh- they want from me
    I just wanna stay in that lavender haze
    That lavender haze

    Talk your talk and go viral
    I just need this love spiral
    Get it off your chest
    Get it off my desk (get it off my desk)
    Talk your talk and go viral
    I just need this love spiral
    Get it off your chest
    Get it off my desk
    (Ooh-whoa)

    I feel (I feel) the lavender haze creepin' up on me
    Surreal, I'm damned if I do give a damn what people say (oh, yeah)
    No deal (no deal), the 1950s sh- they want from me
    I just wanna stay in that lavender haze

    Get it off your chest
    Get it off my desk
    That lavender haze, I just wanna stay
    I just wanna stay in that lavender haze Writer/s: Jack Michael Antonoff, Jahaan Akil Sweet, Mark Anthony Spears, Samuel Joseph Dew, Taylor Alison Swift, Zoe I. Kravitz
