Lana Del Rey The Greatest Lyrics
[Verse]
I miss Long Beach and I miss you, babe
I miss dancing with you the most of all
I miss the bar where the Beach Boys would go
Dennis’ last stop before Kokomo
[Pre-Chorus]
Those nights were on fire
We couldn’t get higher
We didn’t know that we had it all
But nobody warns you before the fall
[Chorus]
And I’m wasted
Don’t leave‚ I just need a wake-up call
I’m facing the greatest
The greatest loss of them all
The culture is lit and I had a ball
I guess I’m signing off after all
[Verse 2]
I miss New York and I miss the music
Me and my friends‚ we miss rock ‘n’ roll
I want shit to feel just like it used to
When‚ baby, I was doing nothin’ the most of all
[Pre-Chorus]
The culture is lit, and if this is it‚ I had a ball
I guess that I’m burned out after all
[Chorus]
I’m wasted
Don’t leave, I just need a wake-up call
I’m facing the greatest
The greatest loss of them all
The culture is lit and I had a ball
I guess that I’m burned out after all
[Outro]
If this is it, I’m signing off
Miss doing nothin’ the most of all
Hawaii just missed that fireball
L.A. is in flames‚ it’s getting hot
Kanye West is blond and gone
“Life on Mars” ain’t just a song
I hope the live stream’s almost on
Produced and written by Jack Antonoff and Lana Del Rey.
Lana Del Rey‘s sixth studio album, Norman Fucking Rockwell released on August 30, 2019 by Polydor and Interscope.
