[English]

It's love or it's lust, we just need to be clear

'Cause if you're in love, then I shouldn't be here

It's never enough, so I gotta leave you now

Ooh-whoa-oh, oh-oh

Would you walk eight thousand miles

Just to make me smile on a rainy Wednesday?

If so, then you gots to go, it ain't mutual and I'm not pretending

Green light, I'm the kryptonite to your love life, no happy ending

You need to slow down, shawty, you way too focused on me

Callin' all the time, blowin' up my line crazy (yeah)

Now I gotta hide, do the duck and dive daily

Couldn't see the signs, you're a Gemini

Shoulda known (ayy)

Shoulda kno-o-own

It's love or it's lust, we just need to be clear

'Cause if you're in love, then I shouldn't be here

What's warm to the touch, is colder than winter now

Ooh-whoa-oh, oh-oh

It's love or it's lust, we just need to be clear

'Cause if you're in love, then I shouldn't be here

It's never enough, so I gotta leave you now

Ooh-whoa-oh, oh-oh

When destiny calls, it won't be for me

Yeah, you should move on, there's nothin' to see here (no)

Isn't my fault you fall into pieces

Told you from the jump, I can't give you what you want

Said you'd keep your cool, we could take it slow (take it slow)

'Til you heard my song on the radio

And now we can't go back to the way it was before (before)

Before, oh-oh-oh

It's love or it's lust, we just need to be clear

'Cause if you're in love, then I shouldn't be here

What's warm to the touch, is colder than winter now

Ooh-whoa-oh, oh-oh

It's love or it's lust (oh-oh, oh), we just need to be clear (oh-oh, oh)

'Cause if you're in love (oh-oh, oh), then I shouldn't be here

It's never enough, so I gotta leave you now

Ooh-whoa-oh, oh-oh

Who told you to be so rude?

You're actin' too irrational (you crazy, girl)

I told you the truth so let me be now

Ooh-whoa-oh, oh-oh

It's love or it's lust, we just need to be clear

'Cause if you're in love, then I shouldn't be here

What's warm to the touch, is colder than winter now

Ooh-whoa-oh, oh-oh

It's love or it's lust, we just need to be clear

'Cause if you're in love, then I shouldn't be here

It's never enough, so I gotta leave you now

Ooh-whoa-oh, oh-oh

Love or lust

Love or lust (yeah, yeah)

Love or lust

Love or lust (ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh)

Love or lust (yeah, yeah)

Love or lust (yeah, yeah)

Ooh, whoa

Ooh-whoa-oh, oh-oh
