What Am I? Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm deep in my groove, I'm not over you
But I'm tryna be inspired, uh
It's just not working today, don't want you to think
That I wanna put the fire out, the fire out
[Pre-Chorus]
You don't wanna show love
And I don't wanna go there with you, uh
We've been the opposite of lovers
But every time we go there
I don't know what I am to you
[Chorus]
I, I wonder if you need me, wonder if you see me
See me when you're dreaming
I, I wonder what I mean to you (You)
What am I? (Mmm, what am I, what am I to you?)
[Verse 2]
I gotta get with this work, I can't put you first
You know I'm not a liar, oh no
Though I can't do us today
Don't wan't you to think that we can't get no higher now, higher now
[Pre-Chorus]
You don't wanna show love
And I don't wanna go there with you, uh
We've been the opposite of lovers
But every time we go there
I don't know what I am to you
[Chorus]
I, I wonder if you need me, wonder if you see me
See me when you're dreaming
I, I wonder what I mean to you (You)
What am I? (Mmm, what am I, what am I to you?)

I wrote this when I was talking to my now boyfriend. He was in the UK and I had to be in America for eight weeks. It was when we just met and he wasn’t being open. We decided that we were going to do the session in our Airbnb: I’m lying on the sofa, I’ve got my pyjamas on and a cushion on my face. M...
