Ay
I heard once, I heard once upon a time
That you and, well
Girl, you know what, never mind
I’m not here to even talk about your past
I don’t care, I just want you and me to go somewhere
Look what you started, your girls wanna party (they’re tryna party)
Meet in the lobby and leave everybody (girl, just leave everyone)
Touchin’ your body, your man doesn’t love you
So let me know if I should stick around
Look what you started, your girls wanna party (they wanna party)
Meet in the lobby and leave everybody (you just leave everyone)
Touchin’ your body, your man doesn’t love you
Let me know if I should stick around
(Would you like somethin’ to, yeah)
(Let me get a glass of wine, baby)
We were layin’ all alone
For the first time, baby
(Is this your first time? Yeah)
That you wanna give your love to me
You’re givin’ me, all alone
For the first time, baby
(Is this your first time? Yeah)
That you wanna give your love to me
You’re givin’ me all kinds of hints
First time, baby
(Is this your first time? Yeah)
That you wanna give your love to me
You’re giving me, all alone
For the first time, baby
(Is this your first time? Yeah)
That you wanna give your love to me
You’re givin’ me all kinds of hints
That you need some love, ba (yeah)
That you wanna give your love to me
You’re givin’ me, all alone
For the first time, baby
(Is this your first time? Yeah)
That you wanna give your love to me
