Onto Me

(album: Little Ghost - 2019)

I've been bringing coffee by work
Listening to you dish about her
(And the one before, and the one before)
I've been awake whenever you call
Saying things like, "No, it's no trouble at all"
(No, it's no trouble, baby)

Echoing, "Don't you compromise
Don't compromise, don't you compromise"
(You deserve better, baby)
Finding a way to stay in the back of your mind

I'm not missing my chance
On a guessing game
Got my pride in the back seat
I don't care if you're onto me
Bump some Erykah and
Break out the champagne
Skip the bullshit in between
I don't care if you're onto me
I'm not wasting my chance
On a guessing game
Got my pride in the back seat
I don't care if you're onto me
Bump some Erykah and
Break out that champagne
I don't care if you're onto me

Stopping by my place just to say, "Hi"
Saying things like, "I've always wanted to try"
(Try it with me, baby, try it with me, baby)
You've been awake whenever I call
I never dreamed I'd be watching you fall
(Just let your guard down)

Why are we dancing on the line?
Boy, this is silly, wasting our time
(Oh, you've got me, baby)
We could be half the way
Through a bottle of wine

I'm not missing my chance
On a guessing game
Got my pride in the back seat
I don't care if you're onto me
Bump some Erykah and
Break out the champagne
Skip the bullshit in between
I don't care if you're onto me
I'm not wasting my chance
On a guessing game
Got my pride in the back seat
I don't care if you're onto me
Play some Erykah and
Break it out
Skip the bullshit baby
'Cause I don't care, no, no
'Cause I don't care, no, no

Damn, boy, we waited so long
Oo, but I know your love is strong
I knew it all along
Some day you'd keep me hanging on
