[Intro]
Ooh
Ooh, da-da-da-da-da
Ooh
[Verse 1]
Hello, you awake right now?
God, I just need to hear the sound of you
Please calm me down
And I know that it's selfish, but
You are the only thing that's
Ever made sense to me, I
I don't wanna do this
I don't know how to do this without you
Cling to your side, voices at night
Cover my eyes, I'm terrified
No in between, a face on a screen
Ain't an adequate replacement for your being with me (Yeah-yeah)
[Pre-Chorus]
Too much time in the limelight
Gimme your all on the landline
Want it so bad, but I won't lie
And it just gets worse in the nighttime
Never stays for long (Ooh, da-da-da-da-da)
And she's gone in the morning (Ooh)
[Chorus]
When you come home
I just got over bein' less of you
When you leave me, I'm in pieces
Maybe it's better if we cut it loose
[Verse 2]
Tell me how your day was
No, I'm not okay
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
Time never moved so slow
Bed time, hit your phone up
Tell me where to go, where to go
Tell me where to go, where to go-oh-oh
[Pre-Chorus]
Too much time in the limelight
Gimme your all on the landline
Want it so bad, but I won't lie
And it just gets worse in the nighttime
Never stays for long (Ooh, da-da-da-da-da)
And she's gone in the morning (Ooh)
[Chorus]
When you come home
I just got over bein' less of you
When you leave me, I'm in pieces
Maybe it's better if we cut it loose
[Refrain]
I don't know how to do this without you
I don't know, I don't know, don't know
I don't know how to do this without you
I don't know, I don't know, don't know
I don't know how to do this without you
[Outro]
Ooh
Ooh, da-da-da-da-da

less of you was written by keshi.
less of you was produced by keshi.
keshi released less of you on Tue Mar 24 2020.
So “less of you” is essentially just a song about missing your significant other, and how when they’re away for a while, you get used to that. But as soon as you get used to it, they come back into your life again, they come crashing back in. And yeah, it’s about that constant ebb and flow.
