“This song was a one-take jam with some of my favorite London musicians (Dave Okumu, Gwilym Gold & Dan See). The vibe was intoxicating and I couldn’t wait to jump on it. It’s about choice, about not wanting a relationship with someone. But I wanted to find a way of saying it with...
[Verse 1]
Will you stay loose? Got nothing to do
With feels or emotions, oh
Honestly, you don't need to come through
I don’t need your devotion, hmm hmm
[Pre-Chorus]
And you've got the freedom
To go before the dawn creeps, huh, in
Our night was good, but not enough to sway me
(Not enought to sway me)
[Chorus]
I wasn't looking for love, looking for loyalty
No, I’m not looking for love, I'm not your royalty
[Verse 2]
You say I'm a queen
I don't want to be bound to nobody
So let's keep it brief, and take what we need
We don't got to be lovers, hmm hmm hmm
[Pre-Chorus]
You've got the freedom
To go before the dawn creeps in
Our night was good, but not enough to sway me
(Not enough to sway me)
[Verse 3]
I never promised you a garden
That would bloom into a lover's scene
From one night
I never swore that we could be
The greatest thing that’s ever been
Let’s keep it real light
[Chorus]
I wasn't looking for love, looking for loyalty, uh, huh
No, I’m not looking for love, I'm not your royalty, uh
[Bridge]
But if that's fine with you
Come in
And if that's fine with you
I’m in
[Chorus]
I wasn't looking for love, looking for loyalty, uh
No, I'm not looking for love, I'm not your royalty, oh, oh
