Lonely

(album: Gifted - 2022)

Where the bassline?
Up inna the daytime
Had a late night
But I never laid down
I never stay down
I hope your day's fine
We should spend the day now, ayy

I'm gonna make time
So you should make time
And we should play
I have nuff things to say, I
Let's run away, we can take a vacation
Treasure creation, okay, ayy

We'll go from land to sea, yeah
This ain't no fantasy, darling
Do anything you wan do
Let me take your worries off you
Stay right here next to me, yeah
You're in good company, darling
Go anywhere you wan go
Better come back tomorrow, because

I know it's hard to trust sometimes
But it's harder to be lonely, yeah
So would you rather to be lonely? Yeah (Would you rather to be)
No way
I know you're scared to give your heart
But you gotta get to know me, yeah

This must be our destiny

Even though you might blend the tree
Me up in the mug, the other side sensimilia

Plus your body shot, you need a license to be, yeah

I know it's hard to trust sometimes
But it's harder to be lonely, yeah
