[Verse 1]
Heartbeat
Is coming in so strong
Oh, if you don't stop
I'm gonna need a second one
Oh, there's something I've
Been meaning to
Say to you, baby (Hold that thought)
Yeah, there's somethin' I've
Been meanin' to
Say to you, baby
But I just can't do it

Reading down the list of the goin' wrongs (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm getting no sleep
Tossin' and turnin' all night long (Yeah)
Oh, there's somewhere I've (Somewhere I've)
Been meaning to (Meaning to)
Take the conversation (Hold that thought)
Yeah, there's somewhere I've (Somewhere I've)
Been meaning to (Meaning to)
Take the conversation
But I just can't do it
[Pre-Chorus]
You show me your (You show me your)
Black girl thing (Black girl thing)
Pretendin' that I know what it is (I wasn't listening)
I apologise, you meet my eyes

[Bridge]
Yeah, I got it

I've just gotta keep it
"Don't fuck it, you muppet"

Thinkin' this through
It's like: one, two, yeah
[Chorus]
I'm in love with you, I- I- I- I- I
I'm in love with you, I- I- I- I- I
