LWFL, Nina Simone - Feelin’ Better lyrics

Birds flyin' high you know how I feel
Sun in the sky you know how I feel
Breeze driftin' on by you know how I feel
It's a new dawn, it's a new day
It's a new life for me, yeah
It's a new dawn, it's a new day
It's a new life for me oooh

I've succeeded my limit's but
I can't wrap my head around
Reasons I didn't before
When my motives were good whatever, sit back
Smoke a little bit until I'm feelin' so good
Some things change
I heard you're leavin' the city
Even the bridge we met underneath
Is peacin' our city
Where a couple of friends and I met
And you learned to skip rocks
I can't stop staring at you do it
There's so much beauty in your movement uhn
Not fuckin' around I'mma try
And keep it simple
I got a real thing happenin' when
I look at those dimples i'm wired for action
Thinkin' real real fast
I'm passing all your tests
Like you're the hot teacher
And I'm the best student in your class
We came together but I
Should bury this hatchet
I hate the loneliness like I
Hate my other habit's
Deprived, and I gotta have it
Can't even think of anything witty
To say your way
I'm just smirkin' that kinda way ooh
Carpets with rose pedals and all
The romance and shit
In the mirror like yeah boy
That's who you are
And don't you ever let go of it
Being drunk ain't in love
Only good luck and a start
Feels like a mystery to me
Some new trials for my heart
If I learn my lesson I'll have
Something to show of it
Bottles of Tanqueray, pour me a glass
Add a little tonic so this
Doesn't head south too fast
So utterly lost in your blouse
Filet mignon and sushi at hibachi's just so
We don't have to do dishes
I counted 30 to 40 kisses but
Still didn't call you my misses
We're tryin' to keep it secret
But I could hear your whisper your wishes
If only I'd have listened
It'da probably been different

Look i'm feelin' better, but different
I'm like
We can try again if it's of interest
But I can understand if it isn't knowin' me
So tenacious but I missed it
Right now let's get down to this
