[English]

No-no-no, no-no-no, no

Hey

No-no-no, no-no-no, no

We're driving in a black car

And it's blacked out and we're spinnin'

We're listening to "Fast Car"

And you're driving fast and you're singin'

Don't wanna tell you what I'm feelin'

Don't want this night to hit a ceiling

I'm wearing dirty white shoes

A white t-shirt and your jacket

I'm laughing, but I'm lying

When you're smiling, I'm the saddest

I hide my face so you don't see it

I think out loud, hope you don't hear it

It's going on 18 months now

And it's fucked up, but I'm falling

I feel it every day now

But I'm stallin', but I'm stallin'

I'm here, but I'm in pieces

And I don't know how to fix this

And I don't know how to fix this, no

If I'm just somebody that you're gonna leave

And you don't feel something when you look at me

You're holdin' my heart, mmm, whatcha say?

Just let me down slowly, I'll be okay

If you're just some habit that I gotta break

I can clear my system in 90 days

You're holdin' my heart, mmm, whatcha say?

Just let me down slowly

I get up, turn the lights out

And it's four o'clock in the morning

I close my eyes, I can't sleep

A hotel room in New York, and

I feel the space that's in between us

Convince myself that this is real love

'Cause you made this shit so easy

And I told you my secrets

So I don't know why I'm tongue tied

At the wrong time when I need this

I'm here, but I'm in pieces

And I don't know how to fix this

And I don't know how to fix this, no

If I'm just somebody that you're gonna leave

And you don't feel something when you look at me

You're holdin' my heart, mmm, whatcha say?

Just let me down slowly, I'll be okay

If you're just some habit that I gotta break

I can clear my system in 90 days

You're holdin' my heart, mmm, whatcha say?

Just let me down slowly

I-I-I, I-I-I, I-I-I

Ooh, no

We're drivin' in your fast car, your fast car

We're drivin' in your fast car, your fast car

We're drivin' in your fast car, your fast car

We're drivin' all night

We're drivin' in your fast car, your fast car, yeah

We're drivin' in your fast car, your fast car, yeah

We're drivin' in your fast car, your fast car, yeah

We're drivin' all night

If I'm just somebody that you're gonna leave

And you don't feel something when you look at me

You're holdin' my heart, mmm, whatcha say?

(Oh, you're holdin' my heart)

Just let me down slowly, I'll be okay

If you're just some habit that I gotta break (Gotta break)

I can clear my system in 90 days

You're holdin' my heart, mmm, whatcha say? (Oh, you're holdin' my heart)

Just let me down slowly
