Ribhavv Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I knew we'd fall into a fight again
I know I messed up
My brain just fessed up
My heart doesen't trust me anymore
I know I messed up
My brain just fessed up
My heart doesen't trust me anymore
No i don't wanna let you go
Just give me one more chance at this
And i will make it to you slow
Make it to you slow
For you i'm selfish
I can't make it out of this
And i need you baby
Just pull me out of this
It's all about the love
You and I, forever
It's all about the love
