Simple
Kaxi feat. Keagan Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You called last night
Are you all right?
Can I come over? (Sick)
It's not that simple, yeah
Don't tell me that you understand
I know that I drive you crazy

Where'd it all go wrong?
Was it something I said?
Sometimes I think too much
But it's not that simple yet
So tell me that you understand
I know that I'll drive you crazy

Let me go
I can't control myself
I'm fine alone

It's not that simple yet
To tell you that you understand
I know that I'll drive you crazy
It's not that I don't care




But just don't wanna hold your hand
'Cause, baby, you drive me crazy
