Slippin'
Ava Max Lyrics
You're not afraid to touch me
But you're afraid to love me
Why you scared? 'Cause baby, I'm right here
You should know you're lucky
That you can have some of me
Tell me why you scared
'Cause baby, I'm right here
I'm not sayin' you're heartless
You're just using your heart a little less
I'm not trying to be obsessed
Just not ready to let you go yet
You're slippin', slippin through my fingers
And I'm grippin', grippin' on your body
Where do you think that you're goin'?
Ain't no one better you know it
Boy you're slippin', baby, you're slippin'
Slippin', sippin' through my fingers
And I'm grippin', grippin' on your body
Where do you think that you're goin'?
Ain't no one better you know it
Boy you're slippin', baby, you're slippin'
Last week in the sauna
Yeah, we made our genre
But then you disappeared
Baby, I'm right here
If you want good karma, why you causin' drama?
I smell your fear, let's get one thing clear
I'm not sayin' you're heartless
You're just using your heart a little less
I'm not trying to be obsessed
Just not ready to let you go yet
You're slippin', slippin through my fingers
And I'm grippin', grippin' on your body
Where do you think that you're goin'?
Ain't no one better you know it
Boy you're slippin', baby, you're slippin'
Slippin', sippin' through my fingers
And I'm grippin', grippin' on your body
Where do you think that you're goin'?
Ain't no one better you know it
Boy you're slippin', baby, you're slippin'
[GASHI:]
Slippin', fallin'
I'm tryna get up now
I never knew what love is
Show me that right now
You know I copped you the foreign
You know that I'm never boring
You the one that always ignorin'
I'm the one always that's callin'
I swear that they prayin' we broke up
Put it on me like a coaster
Everyday we gettin' closer
Stuck to you just like a poster
Wearin' my heart over my sleeve
You got your head on my shoulder
You know that I'm never gon' leave
I'm in it till it's over
[Ava Max:]
You're slippin', slippin through my fingers
And I'm grippin', grippin' on your body
Where do you think that you're goin'?
Ain't no one better you know it
Boy you're slippin', baby, you're slippin'
Slippin', sippin' through my fingers
And I'm grippin', grippin' on your body
Where do you think that you're goin'?
Ain't no one better you know it
Boy you're slippin', baby, you're slippin'
But you're afraid to love me
Why you scared? 'Cause baby, I'm right here
You should know you're lucky
That you can have some of me
Tell me why you scared
'Cause baby, I'm right here
I'm not sayin' you're heartless
You're just using your heart a little less
Just not ready to let you go yet
You're slippin', slippin through my fingers
And I'm grippin', grippin' on your body
Where do you think that you're goin'?
Ain't no one better you know it
Boy you're slippin', baby, you're slippin'
Slippin', sippin' through my fingers
And I'm grippin', grippin' on your body
Where do you think that you're goin'?
Ain't no one better you know it
Boy you're slippin', baby, you're slippin'
Last week in the sauna
Yeah, we made our genre

Ain't no one better you know it
Boy you're slippin', baby, you're slippin'

She should re-release this as a single on all platforms like she did for Salt 😭 the instrumental and her vocals, lyrics etc are amazing. It's a great song, one of my favourites from her!!

Arnoldo Armenta

Just found this song. The song sounds so good. Ava Max has no bad songs in my opinion. I love Lady Gaga, Ariana Grande and Rihanna so much but there's many songs of them that I CAN SKIP while listening to their playlists created by Apple Music or Spotify. But for Ava Max, I SKIP NONE OF HER SONGS literally. She is definitely my only no-skip singer.

Hello Ava I'm 13 years old and I love all your songs. I hear all your songs every day.
I don't like when people compares you with other singers, because you're unique
