“A Little While” is one of BENEE’s few, but beautiful, love songs. She’s not singing about a bad ex, as in “Supalonely,” this album’s most popular song, nor is she relating a bad dream, like in “Monsta.” Instead, she sings about an encounter with a possible new love interest and her confusion about...
[Verse 1]
I saw you from afar
Asked if I wanted some of your cigar
But I don't smoke
Think you wanna know me
Drivin' inside your car
You put your hand around my heart
But I'm afraid, yeah
You'll try to control me
[Chorus]
And if I stay a little while

Make it warmer for me, yeah
'Cause I'm cold
[Post-Chorus]
I try so hard to talk to you
But I stay quiet
'Cause I'm confused
I'm not used to guys like you
I'm so used to being used
[Verse 2]
You think that I'm bizarre, I wanna know just who you are

And this time, oh
You wanna really try
[Chorus]
And if I stay a little whilе
How long will you make me wait your call?
Make it warmеr for me, yeah
'Cause I'm cold
[Post-Chorus]
I try so hard to talk to you
But I stay quiet
'Cause I'm confused
I'm not used to guys like you
I'm so used to being used
