  • Got a taste of what it feels like to be close enough
    And I hope I can get my mind right so I can keep it up

    I've been writing R&B for you
    I've been making you a tea
    Before you know it's what you need
    Tell me, is it too sweet for you?
    I've been writing R&B

    But I should be writing for me and mine
    Don't know if you've heard but there's a whole pile of it
    The thing is
    I've got a taste of what it feels like to be close enough
    And I hope I can get my mind right so I can keep it up

    I can't be writing R&B for you
    I'll be making me a coffee while you spoon her back to sleep
    And I'm still sweet for you
    I can't be writing R&B

    I've been writing R&B for you
    I've been writing R&B for you
    I've been writing R&B for you
    I've been writing R&B

    The shivering truth of the matter is so easy to see
    If I have stuff to write, then why don't I just write it for me?
    Despite appearances, I haven't got the voice for R&B
    Even though I've seen more COLORS Shows than KEXPs
    Shivering truth of the matter is so easy to see
    If I have stuff to write, then why don't I just write it for me?
    Despite appearances, I haven't got the voice for R&B
    Even though I've seen more COLORS Shows than KEXPs
    The shivering truth of the matter is so easy to see
    If I have stuff to write, then why don't I just write it for me?
    Despite appearances, I haven't got the voice for R&B
    Even though I've seen more COLORS Shows than KEXPs
    The shivering truth of the matter is so easy to see
    If I have stuff to write, then why don't I just write it for me?
    Despite appearances, I haven't got the voice for R&B
    Even though I've seen more COLORS Shows than KEXPs Writer/s: Douglas Frost, Lewis Whiting, Lilly Fontaine, Nicholas Eden
