[Intro: RAYE]
You should be here with me
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
Don't be sad
Yeah, yeah
Oh, woah, yeah
Oh, woah
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 1: RAYE]
Fuck what they say (Say, say)
I think you should take a break (Oh)
Get on a plane (Plane, plane)
Call it the sweetest escape (Yeah)
I wanna go, I wanna feel
I wanna feel your body (Yeah)
People gon' talk, like it or not
So maybe don't tell nobody (Mmm)
[Pre-Chorus: RAYE]
And I know I've been distant
I've been seeing other guys
You've been kissing other bitches (Mmm)
I think you should come and visit
I got someone else who isn't you
Pullin' up in a minute, uh, yeah
[Chorus: RAYE]
Don't you know what you're missing
In the five star high hotel in Mauritius?
I, I, I, I think I know what you're missing
In the five star high hotel in Mauritius, mhm
[Post-Chorus: RAYE]
Come seek, I'm hiding
Sick of drunk dialing
Come to my hotel, baby, don't fight it
I just wanna hang on your neck like a diamond, uh
Look at that timing
I take you to dinner, fine dining
I'ma take off, how I land that, pilot
Five star telly, pree a bad bitch ride it, oh, oh
[Verse 2: RAYE]
I'm on the road
Took a Benz down to the coast
I'm tryna drink, I'm tryna smoke
Set it on fire, I took a toke of that (Uff, ah)
Clearing my mind, if you were mine
You would be here, we would be fine
There would be wine, we would be high on that, mmm
[Pre-Chorus: RAYE]
And I know I've been distant
You been loving other girls
I won't tell you who I'm kissing, yeah
I think you should come and visit
I got one fine piece of man
Standing in position, oh, baby
[Chorus: RAYE]
Don't you know what you're missing
In the five star high hotel in Mauritius?
I, I, I, I think I know what you're missing
In the five star high hotel in Mauritius, mhm
[Post-Chorus: RAYE]
Come seek, I'm hiding (Hiding, hiding)
Sick of drunk dialing
Come to my hotel, baby, don't fight it
Just wanna hang on your neck like a diamond, oh, oh
Look at that timing
I take you to dinner, fine dining
I'ma take off, how I land that, pilot
Five star telly, pree a bad bitch ride it, oh, oh
Five star telly, pree a bad bitch ride it, oh, oh
[Verse 3: Mahalia]
Don't you, huh
Don't you
Don't you know what you're missing?
Touching, kissing, I like persistence
Don't you wanna roll in my Rolls?
With the stars on the ceiling, come see this feeling, now
Come feel like you're dreaming now
Come be by my side, baby, I'll take you on a ride, baby
I'll show you why I'm different
You don't need a reason, no
We've always been distant
Always just existing
Well let's exist together now
[Chorus: RAYE]
Ooh, ooh, baby, don't you know what you're missing
In the five star high hotel in Mauritius?
Oh, ooh, baby, don't you know what you're missing
In the five star high hotel in Mauritius?

This is a smooth sexy song that I had in my drop box for years. A song that makes me feel attractive and makes my mind wander to intimacy and what the future could hold. Mahalia also added a beautiful verse from her own perspective and completed the record perfectly.
