Niykee. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Never in a million did I think we'd be together
Really knocked me off my game
Now I guess my mind's been changed
I don't even recognize the person in the mirror
Then you come around and make the whole thing clearer
Damn you make me act so bad
When it comes to you
I break all the rules
Ain't nobody love me like you do
Boy you got me trippin'
Actin' a fool
We could do this all night
Where your body fits right
Boy your love is skintight
Alright
Everybody's watching
Let them stare
People gonna talk but I don't care
We could do this all night
Where your body fits right
Boy your love is skintight
Alright
Never have I ever believed in a happy ending
All in fairy tales always knew they were just pretending
Never gonna be like that
Oops I better take that back
When it comes to you
I break all the rules
Ain't nobody love me like you do
Boy you got me trippin'
Actin' a fool
We could do this all night
Where your body fits right
Boy your love is skintight
Alright
You love me like skintight
You love me like skintight
You love me like skintight
You love me like skintight
Ohhh
Never thought I'd be that girl
Then you came and rocked my world
Never thought I'd be that girl
Then you fucked up my world
Ain't nobody love me like you do
Boy you got me trippin'
Actin' a fool
We could do this all night
Where your body fits right
Boy your love is skintight
Alright
You love me like skintight
You love me like skintight
You love me like skintight
You love me like skintight
