I hope you think of me high
I hope you think of me highly
When you’re with someone else
I know your friends all lie
I know your friends don’t like me
They want you for themselves
Today I called to tell you that I’m changin’
But I don’t think you have enough respect to see me try
I’ve been wakin’ up in different spaces
But I think that my heart is built to last more than a night
I need to stop lettin’ me down, down, down, down, down
I need to stop lettin’ me down, down, down, down, down
I hope you think of me high
I hope you think of me highly
When you’re with someone else
I know your friends all lie
I know your friends don’t like me
They want you for themselves
I know I’ll never meet your exceptions
But picture that you paint of me looks better in your mind
Now every step, I take with hesitation
And I always miss the memories of the mornings we were high
I need to stop lettin’ me down, down, down, down, down
I need to stop lettin’ me down, down, down, down, down
I hope you think of me high
I hope you think of me highly
When you’re with someone else
I know your friends all lie
I know your friends don’t like me
They want you for themselves
Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da
Da-da-da, ooh
When you’re with someone else
Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da
Da-da-da, ooh
They want you for themselves
I hope you think of me high
I hope you think of me highly
When you’re with someone else
