Drake; PartyNextDoor Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's about us right now, girl, where you going?
I'm with you (ooh, whoa-oh)
Yeah, I can't get enough of you, babe
Bottles open up so you can try and open up for me, baby
M.I.A. in the MIA
You do you, girl, the haters gon' hate
Oh, I know you feel what I feel
Breaking you off, it's so real
I can't fake that, babe
My love's locked down and you cuffing it
You're the only one I trust with it
You're the only one that stuck with it
It's about us right now, girl, where you going?
It's about us right now, girl, where you going?
I'm with you (ooh, whoa-oh)
It's about us right now, girl, where you going?
It's about us right now, girl, where you going? Yeah
I'm with you (ooh, whoa-oh)
Yeah, linking me down on my line
Busy as usual but we should make some time
Looking for things you can find
Just so you can have something to bring up when it's time
Mixing vodka and emotions
Tapping in to your emotions
Dry cry 'cause I'm hopeless
Choosy lover for the moment
Different story when I leave you
Story up just to keep you
I need you around, I need you, oh
It's about us right now, girl, where you going?
It's about us right now, girl, where you going?
I'm with you (ooh, whoa-oh)
It's all about us right now, girl, where you going?
It's all about us right now, girl, where you going?
I'm with you, oh-oh, ooh-oh
I'm with you, oh-oh, ooh-oh
