[Intro: Usher]
Ah
Whatcha doin'?
Really
You know I'm comin' over, right?
Ayy, baby, tell me whatcha wanna do
[Verse 1: Daniel Daley]
Let me start by sayin' sorry
Some days I take your time for granted
You could be the star in my universe
If I just took time to plan it
Told me secrets you ain't wanna
Trust is big for you, that's why I'm keeping it a hunna
Crazy vulnerable shit in common
Just keeps us apart when we should be starting
To keep our promises, we could be promisin'
You say I'm closed off
Let's open up and take our clothes off
[Chorus: Daniel Daley]
I don't want nothing in between us
Nothing there to stop the feeling
I don't want nothing in between us
Got me thinking this might be love
Oh, oh
Oh yeah
[Verse 2: Snoh Aalegra]
Don't be sorry, just be careful, baby
Know my heart is fragile
Don't say shit that you don't really mean
'Cause that's just hard to handle
I loved it most when it was just me and you
They know the truth so we gon' watch how we move
But nothin' beats the feelin' that you givin' me
Even if it ain't forever, ooh
Just keep it honest, we made some promises
They got opinions, but that won't change a thing
We got each other, let's shut the world up
And take our clothes off, baby, yeah
[Chorus: Daniel Daley & Snoh Aalegra]
I don't want nothing in between us (Ooh, oh)
Nothing there to stop the feeling (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I don't want nothing in between us (Nothin' else between us, oh, oh)
Got me thinking this might be love (Be us, yeah)
Oh, oh
Oh yeah

A March 2020 Rap Up article quotes dvsn saying:
We’ve never been afraid to take risks in our songwriting, and this time is no different. With Snoh’s help, we were able to casually blur the lines of communication and temptation.
No. “Between Us” marks the first collaboration between dvsn and Snoh Aalegra.
The day we made “Between Us”, I think we were in Miami for Art Basel. We had a little pool house that we renovated into like a little studio, little ping-pong set up, and play ping pong. And yeah, we set up in the back. Nineteen85 set up his laptop and he was going through loops. Just going through...
We just kind of were trying to find a way of talking to real shit that we’re going through at the time. That’s always the like check mark or check point in the relationship where it’s like, What are we and when are we going to stop the bullshit?And can it just end up with me and you? When are we goi...
Daley: We first got the idea from a mashup that somebody did. Somebody was doing a mashup because we had an original record that was called “In Between”. And this is “Between Us”, but we heard somebody taking the original, I guess acapella M beat, our original beat. They kind of took our song but wa...
I think Daniel originally was like, “I think we need a female response to this”. And he’s like, “I don’t know if I’ve ever really heard Snoh do one of those, I’ve never really heard her do a song like this.” I was like, “That’s exactly why. Like she’s going to kill this. Let’s go. I’ll hit her up ri...
