Hmm hmm
Hmm hmm
Yeah
She do whatever she like
And that just don't seem right
Yeah, make people so mad
Well, we was fuckin', almost missed my flight
I wasn't even trippin', I said it's all right
Yeah, goddamn, we was hit last night
Wouldn't you rather get along?
Wouldn't you rather get along?
You was coughin' when you hit my weed
But I've never seen you feel that free
So cute, you wanna be like me
Wouldn't you rather get along?
Wouldn't you rather get along?
Until, until, there is no longer
Let's get lost inside the clouds
And you, you don't gotta work harder
I can calm you down
Yeah, well I was busy when you hit my phone
But you miss me, tell me come back home
Yeah, and you don't really like to sleep alone
But I'm takin' too long
I'm always takin' too long
Baby we don't need a trip, we could be right here
When the shit get weird, we could switch up gears
I wanna see them lips, kiss 'em ear to ear
I wanna hear your song
Ooh, I wanna feel just how you feel
Touch it one more time so I know you're real
We could spin that wheel, wouldn't you rather get along?
Until, until, there is no longer
Let's get lost inside the clouds
And you, you don't gotta work harder
I can calm you down
I think we just might be alright
Thank god
I think we're gonna be alright, alright, okay
Hold me close, don't hold your breath
That's really your favorite

The song highlights the uncertainty and doubts that come with a confusing and complex relationship.

In the opening lines, the singer recalls a night they spent together when he almost missed his flight. Even though he wasn't worried about it, they were intimate and hit it off. He then questions why they should fight when it's easier to get along.
The chorus focuses on getting lost in the clouds, which indicates letting go of any worries or concerns they may have. The singer suggests that he can calm his partner down and make everything alright between them. He further shows his desire to connect with her intimately by wanting to hear her sing and kiss her lips from ear to ear.

@lonniemckibben3915
Winning a Grammy is overrated you’ve touched more souls then the past ten Grammy winners
@PodRealoaded
I'm still mad they cheated Kendrick on 2 deserved Grammys (album of the year when Taylor won and the infamous Macklemore incident)
@finnegansiemion3692
The Grammys are so poor and don’t even recognize the most talented albums. They just award the most mainstream popular albums that play on the radio.
@tranq_8905
Yeah I think the Grammys have really fallen from grace recently
