[English]

God, I wish it was you

...

Troye, baby

...

Last night was f- crazy

No, no, no, anoche, una puta locura

Una puta locura

Tokyo just hit me like a wave

Where we ended up, I couldn't say

I'm feeling like my head's just in a distant time and place

I hope that I got you the way that you got me, baby

And I spent so long just waiting for the signs

Thought I'd lost my every feeling on the ride

Then, oh, you showed that's just the way love goes

Now the only thing I wanna know

Is what's the time where you are, you are?

What's the night like where you are, you are?

International straight shot to my heart

I'm right on top of this groove (groove)

But, God, I wish it was you (you)

Is it better where you are, you are?

What's the weather where you are, you are?

International through line to my heart

This beat is makin' me move (move)

But, God, I wish it was you (you)

God, I wish it was you

Anoche, una puta locura

Una puta locura

Open invite if you wanna come (if you wanna come)

'Cause I'm everywhere, you'd think I'm on the run

I'm okay with waiting if when all is said and all is done (is said and done)

You know that I got you the way that you got me, baby

And I spent so long just waiting for the signs

Thought I'd lost my every feeling on the ride

Then, oh (then, oh), you showed (you showed) that's just the way love goes

Now the only thing I wanna know

Is what's the time where you are, you are?

What's the night like where you are, you are?

International straight shot to my heart

I'm right on top of this groove (groove)

But, God, I wish it was you (you)

Is it better where you are, you are?

What's the weather where you are, you are?

International through line to my heart

This beat is making me move (me move)

But, God, I wish it was you (it was you)

God, I wish it was you

Troye, baby

No, no, no, anoche, una puta locura

Una puta locura

...

You are, you are

You are, you are

Got an international through line to my heart

This beat is making me move (move)

But, God, I wish it was you (you)

God, I wish it was you

...
