Yeh-yeh-yeh-yeh-yei
Babylon Girl
Oh-oh
Says
There was no intention
Just a tension between us
There was so much magic, baby
That it showed even in the photos
The idea was to fix things
Not to end up more broken
There was a failure in the direction
It was your bed
Not your heart, baby
We made love over and over again
I don't even know how to explain it, baby
I don't know if we were water or thirst
And now how do I tell you that I fell in love
I don't even know how to explain it
Oh, baby, I don't know if we were water or thirst
Oh-oh, hey, yo
If there was never an intention
Why so much mess between us
I don't want to drive anymore
If you're not going to be my co-pilot
The blame is on your face
I see it and I go crazy
There was a failure in the direction
It was your bed
Not your heart, baby
We made love over and over again
I don't even know how to explain it, baby
I don't know if we were water or thirst
And now how do I tell you that I fell in love
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Baby, I don't know if we were water or thirst
And now how do I tell you that I fell in love
For your skin, for your mouth
For how you speak, for your things
For how you dodge the "I love yous"
I love you because you're crazy
For your voice, for your fears
For your victories and your defeats
It was so easy for you
To make me fall in love with your heart
