[Verse 1]
Not like I think about it night after night
Your name is echoing inside of my mind
Then I got to know you
Oh, false hopes rule
And then I opened
Right up to you

[Pre-Chorus]
This stupid act, that things aren't bad
We could never be like that
Live far away now, that's no joke
No way to reach you when I'm low

[Chorus]
Lying around, daydreaming
Wanting you now, but that's wishful thinking
Lying around, daydreaming
Wanting you now, but that's wishful thinking

[Verse 2]
I do remember everything that you said
Won't let that pointless talk stay trapped in my head
Then I got to know you
Oh, false hopes rule
Those days are gone now
You left too soon

[Pre-Chorus]
This stupid act, that things aren't bad
We could never be like that
Live far away now, that's no joke
No way to reach you when I'm low

[Chorus]
Lying around, daydreaming
Wanting you now, but that's wishful thinking
Lying around, daydreaming
Wanting you now, but that's wishful thinking

[Bridge]
Everything you said
Makes sense to me right now
You were just straight scared
Afraid that it might work out
Everything you said
Makes sense to me right now
You were just straight scared
Afraid that it might work out

[Chorus]
Lying around, daydreaming
Wanting you now, but that's wishful thinking
Lying around, daydreaming
Wanting you now, but that's wishful thinking

[Outro]
Everything you said (You said)
Makes sense to me right now (Right now)
You were just straight scared (Straight scared)
Afraid that it might work out (Work out)
Everything you said (You said)
Makes sense to me right now (Right now)
You were just straight scared (Straight scared)
Afraid that it might work out
(Afraid that it might work out)

BENEE

Stella Rose Bennett (born 30 January 2000), known professionally as BENEE (formerly Bene), is a New Zealand singer-songwriter who debuted in December 2017 with “Tough Guy.” Music had always been part of her life, with a family history in theatre. BENEE’s first instrument was a saxophone, playing it for several years, along with the guitar.

BENEE started posting music to Soundcloud in her final year of high school (2017), catching the attention of producer Josh Fountain. The pair went on the work together in several of her singles, including break-out single “Soaked” which was featured on triple j’s hottest 100 (2018).

After spending two weeks in a communications course at the Auckland Institute of Technology, Benee realised she wanted to be making music full-time.
