Hayley Kiyoko - Sleepover
[Verse 1]
I don't wanna talk about it
I don't wanna think about it
I'm just feeling low, feeling low
Even when you're next to me
It's not the way I’m picturing
I'm just feeling low, feeling low
You wanna be friends forever?
I can think of something better
I'm just feeling low, feeling low
Sleeping here right next to me
But will you ever mess with me? No
[Chorus]
But at least I got you in my head, oh yeah
At least I got you in my head, in my head
Sleepovers in my bed, oh yeah
At least I got you in my head, in my head
In my head
In my head
[Verse 2]
Always there to brush your hair
Help you pick out what to wear
I just feel alone, feel alone
You will never understand
Even when you hold my hand
I just feel alone, feel alone
I don't wanna talk about it
I don't wanna think about it
I just feel alone, feel alone
Even when you're next to me
It's not the way I’m picturing, no
[Chorus]
But at least I got you in my head, oh yeah
At least I got you in my head, in my head
Sleepovers in my bed, oh yeah
At least I got you in my head, in my head
In my head
In my head
[Bridge]
Come on, let's sleep in my bed
Can I just be in my head with you?
Come on, let's sleep in my bed
Can I just be in my head with you?
And it breaks my heart, yeah it breaks my heart
I do this every single time, every time
[Chorus]
But at least I got you in my head, oh yeah
At least I got you in my head, in my head
Sleepovers in my bed, oh yeah
At least I got you in my head, in my head
"Sleepover" was first released as a non-album single however, later became the first single and the fourth track off Hayley Kiyoko's debut album, Expectations. It was released on March 2, 2017 through Atlantic and Empire and was Kiyoko's first song of that year. The song was released on March 2, 2017 as an non-album single and was confirmed to the fourth track on Hayley's debut album on March 12, 2018, an entire year after the song was first released. In Sleepover Kiyoko depicts the attempts of queer people who fell in love with a friend to show those friends just how deep their feelings are. However, that friend is unaware of their feelings and the queer people keep fantasizing about all the aspects of a romantic relationship and even if they will not ever have that in real life at least they got them in their heads. “I tried to capture that intense feeling of yearning for someone, and how it just feels like you’re being swallowed by it.“ - via Billboard Interview
