Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Is my love too much?

Or is it just enough for you, for you?

'Cause it's getting late, would you like to stay? Ah

'Cause I'm bad at reading signs

But I, I wanna do whatever you wanna do

If you wanted to, girl, we could cross that line

Know we've been friends

And love only knows broken ends

Yeah, that's what you said

But girl, let me change your mind

Mmm, mmm, mmm

'Cause feelings are hard to find

Mmm, mmm, mmm

Feelings are hard

But I feel 'em in my chest

A tiny war within

But when I pull you closer

Girl, I can't explain

But I, I wanna do whatever you wanna do

If you wanted to, girl, we could cross that line

Know we've been friends

And love only knows broken ends

Yeah, that's what you said

But girl, let me change your mind

Mmm, mmm, mmm

'Cause feelings are hard to find

Mmm, mmm, mmm

Feelings are hard, yeah

And I know, and I know that it hurts sometimes

That it hurts sometimes when I'm with you

And I know, and I know that it hurts sometimes

That it hurts sometimes, but I miss you

And I know, and I know that it's on your mind

That it's on your mind when I kiss you

But I wanna do whatever you wanna do

I wanna do whatever you wanna do

If you wanted to, girl, we could cross that line

Know we've been friends

And love only knows broken ends

Yeah, that's what you said

But girl, let me change your mind

Mmm, mmm, mmm

'Cause feelings are hard to find

Mmm, mmm, mmm

Feelings are hard to find, yeah
