[Intro]
Yeah
Ooh, yeah
(Yeah, ADP on this, boy)
[Verse 1]
Twenty-four/seven, feel you in my mind
Find it hard to sleep when the sheets are mine
Trying not to miss you
Oh, I really miss you bad
Being by myself is weird as hell
I wanna be with you acting weird as hell
Trying not to miss you, oh, it really hurts so bad
[Pre-Chorus]
Cigarette kisses, oh, you watch me sting
Like I just need your body, don't want diamond rings, you know
I hate myself when I'm alone
Hey-ey
Nothing could be better than the months we've had
Just living at your parents, thought I'd drive you mad, but no
Your body on me feels like home
[Chorus]
You know we gotta work it out, out, out, out
From thе west side to the south, south, south, south
Lovе me now, just love me now, now, now, now
Love me now, just love me now
And I don't wanna take it slow, slow, slow, slow (Slow, slow)
No reversing, let's just go, go, go, go
Drive our problems off the road, road, road, road (Baby)
Love me now, just love me now
Love me now, just love me
[Verse 2]
Might get a tattoo just to feel something
Dye my hair red in the kitchen sink
Ain't nothing on the TV
Talking to myself again
When I can't get to sleep, yeah, my appetite
Rockets through the sky when you're in my mind
Trying not to cry, but I've drank all the wine I have (Oh, yeah)
[Pre-Chorus]
Nothing could be better than the months we've had (Yes)
Just living at your parents, thought I'd drive you mad, but no (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Your body on me feels like home
[Chorus]
You know we gotta work it out, out, out, out (Out, out)
From the west side to the south, south, south, south
Love me now, just love me now, now, now, now
Love me now, just love me now (Yeah, yeah)
And I don't wanna take it slow, slow, slow, slow
No reversing, let's just go, go, go, go
Drive our problems off the road, road, road, road
Love me now, just love me now
Love me now, just love me
[Bridge]
Cigarette kisses, oh, you watch me sting
Like I just need your body, don't want diamond rings, you know
I hate myself when I'm alone
[Chorus]
You know we gotta work it out, out, out, out
From the west side to the south, south, south, south
Love me now, just love me now, now, now, now
Love me now, just love me now
And I don't wanna take it slow, slow, slow, slow
No reversing, let's just go, go, go, go
Drive our problems off the road, road, road, road
Love me now, just love me now
Love me now, just love me
[Outro]
Love me, love me, love me, love me
Love me, love me, love me, love me
Love me, love me, love me, love me
Love me, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
