I'm nothing easy to please, and I don't fall easily
Summer came and went, and I seen you in your bikini

They ain't never seem sexy at all, oh, oh

You're just a distraction babe
Looking for a reaction babe

My love yeah, my love don't come easy babe

What's up with you after many-a-moons girl yeah
Why do you act like I'm sexist or something, just for calling you sexy
Even though we're not together, I still find you sexy
It's like a wolf hollering at the moon, every time that I see ya hmm hmm
Girl you're bad and you break hearts for a living you don't smile
And you say you're in love, but that's why I don't love
My love yeah, my love don't come easy babe

My love yeah, my love yeah don't come easy, babe
My affection for you is not easily won, my dear
I'm nothing easy to please, and I don't fall easily
I have high standards and am not easily swayed by temporary infatuations
Summer came and went, and I seen you in your bikini
I saw you during the summer, wearing a bikini
Sitting pool side with your cigarettes
You were smoking by the pool
They ain't never seem sexy at all, oh, oh
Smoking doesn't make you any more attractive to me
I can read you from head to toe, head to pedicure
I can tell everything about you, from your head to your toes, including your pedicure
You're just a distraction babe
You're not someone I see a serious future with, just a temporary distraction
Looking for a reaction babe
You're trying to provoke a reaction from me
March was good and the sex was great
Our physical connection was good in March
But I need someone more official babe you're just a distraction babe
I need a serious, committed partner, and you're not it
And you know, yes you know
You are aware of this fact
That's why, that's why
This is the reason why our relationship cannot progress
What's up with you after many-a-moons girl yeah
What's been going on with you lately?
Why do you act like I'm sexist or something, just for calling you sexy
Why do you react negatively when I call you attractive?
Even though we're not together, I still find you sexy
Even though we're not in a relationship, I still think you're attractive
It's like a wolf hollering at the moon, every time that I see ya hmm hmm
It feels like an instinctual, animal attraction when I see you
Girl you're bad and you break hearts for a living you don't smile
You have a reputation for being a heartbreaker and don't seem very happy
And you say you're in love, but that's why I don't love
You claim to be in love, but I am hesitant to reciprocate those feelings
My love yeah, my love don't come easy babe
My love is not easy to obtain
It don't come easy
It is a difficult task to earn my love

P3 is one of his saddest and darkest works but it's an absolute pleasure to my ears.
LinkSoSuave

Sc row
Last good album.
Ethan Milne
I didn’t find about until PND until last year and this track wasn’t that popular but fuck is it beautiful. The vibes are immaculate. I haven’t heard a track that felt this clean and nice since I heard Trilogy by the Weeknd
LinkSoSuave
🔺Wøäh🔺 true indeed ... the energy on his tracks are really real.! PNDforever
Katrina Walcott
listening to his slow music put you in the mood.. especially with headphones in and laying in a dark room 😍

I thought I wrote this comment because I'm always doing this

as a producer i can realize party is a legit musical genius, it's a shame most people will never recognize the level of talent he has. when the bass drops in this song its like a warm blanket smothering you, suffocating you till it leaves then it's cold af again- no one else can do this
Solum
yes! beautiful way to describe it.
