Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've been hurt so many times
It got to a point
When I decided
I can't do this anymore
I need someone to hold me
I need someone that needs me
I need someone that loves me
You need me to get that shit together
So we can get together
You need me to get that shit together
So we can get together
You need me to (yeah, yeah)
You need me to
You know, we don't have to be dramatic
Just romantic
Do all the little things, little things, little things
That excites me
As your woman
Give me a kiss goodnight
Over the phone
When you're working late
When you're out of town
Tell me how much you need this
'Cause we deserve it
We can be together, but
You need me to get that shit together
So we can get together
You need me to get that shit together
So we can get together
You need me to (yeah, oh-oh, yeah)
You need me to (yeah)
You need me to

This isn’t underrated at all. Drake barely in it. The chick and the beat make this song. Drake makes this song horrible. Stop being such a 8–D rider

@ishbeshhh9638
Truly. This album was really fucking clean through and through. It was severely underrated and the best songs weren’t even single releases IMO.
@ishbeshhh9638
Thomas Cook lmfao. You could just not like the album in silence you know. Why are you even on his album listening and commenting if the album sucks so much. Looks like you the one riding other ppl bro. Get a hobby.

just listen to this with headphones, close your eyes and picture yourself on a deck facing the calm ocean with the sun just setting. Beautiful song from Drake and more importantly Jorja Smith. <3
