  • Let's get the party started
    See you at the bar, you was hardly talkin'
    That's when I knew that your heart was scarrin'
    Friends to lovers, need a part to star in, like, "Wait, babe"
    Let me ask your pardon
    This ain't Gucci, this is Prada, darlin'
    If you want somethin', you can ask me, darlin'
    Then you started laughin' 'cause you think I'm jokin'
    But lookin' in your eyes is the best thing
    Brake lights giving you the red skin
    You was in a bad mood from we stepped in
    Though you checked out 'fore we even checked in
    On the phone you gon' vent to your best friend
    The one you gave me the lecture, but I ain't gon' sweat you, babe
    I'ma let you catch up with your boy, undress you
    And let me tell you why I'ma bless you

    It's the way my mind fallin' away
    In my heart, I know
    You feel the same when you're with me
    You know I'm all you need
    You're where I wanna be
    My darling, can't you see?

    I love you
    I love you
    I love you
    I love you
    I love you

    Fell into you
    Say you want me in the mood
    Tryna hide my feelings for you
    Don't wanna argue, not with you
    Tell me why you're so in denial
    Hold me close, don't tell me goodnight
    Are you down to get me?
    Tell me when you're ready, I'm ready (yeah)

    We can get into it or we can get intimate
    The shower when you sing in it
    Better than Beyoncé, I like the sound of fiancée
    You know it's got a little ring to it
    And really when I think of it
    Growin' up, I didn't ever see marriages
    No weddings, no horse, no carriages
    I wanna do things different and change the narrative
    God knows you a wild child, beautiful child, I need your help
    Looking like you come from the '90s by yourself
    My mum sixty-one and her favourite line to tell her son is
    Sometimes she wish that she had a girl
    I wanna take you back to a time, back to a trip
    You had that white wine that I never got to sip
    And dinner wasn't ruined 'cause you never got to pick
    I know that everybody told me that I'm sick 'cause

    It's the way my mind fallin' away
    In my heart, I know
    You feel the same when you're with me
    You know I'm all you need
    You're where I wanna be
    My darling, can't you see?

    (I love you) me and you, never let me go
    (I love you) me and you, I'll tell you two times
    Me and you, never let me go
    (I love you) me and you, I'll tell you two times
    It's me and you, never let me go
    (I love you) me and you, I'll tell you two times
    Me and you, never let me go
    Me and you, I'll tell you two times

    I said lean with it, rock with it (tell me, you're the only one I want)
    Your finger, I can put a rock in it (tell me, you're the only one I want, baby)
    Fin-finger, I can put a rock in it (tell me, you're the only one I want)
    Banker, they can put a block in it (tell me, you're the only one I want, baby)
    Said rock with it, bounce with it (tell me, you're the only one I want)
    Your left wrist, I can put my house in it (tell me, you're the only one I want, baby)
    You wanna bet, babe? I can put my house in it (tell me, you're the only one I want)
    B-b-babe, I could put my spouse in it (tell me, you're the only one I want, baby)

    I said, shimmy-shimmy, yay, shimmy, shimmy-shimmy, yah
    5'9", brown eyes, and she in it, in it
    Shimmy-shimmy, yay, shimmy, shimmy-shimmy, yah
    5'9", brown eyes, innit, innit
    Shimmy-shimmy, yay, shimmy, shimmy-shimmy, yah
    5'9", brown eyes, and she in-in-
    Shimmy-shimmy, yay, shimmy, shimmy-shimmy, yah
    5'9", brown eyes Writer/s: David Orobosa Omoregie, Jo Caleb, Jonny Leslie, Kyle Evans, Temilade Openiyi
