Just Because
S.A.F.T Lyrics

Just because, just because, just because
Just because something seems simple and repetitive, it doesn't mean that it lacks meaning or importance.

Because, because, because, because
Justifying or explaining one's actions or feelings doesn't always require a long-winded explanation.

Just because
Just because there may be contradictions between one's words and one's actions doesn't necessarily mean that one's feelings aren't genuine.

I don't want to come home wit ya tonight
Just because I don't want to spend the night with you, it doesn't mean that I don't care about you.

Don't mean that I don't want to
Just because I don't want to do one specific thing, it doesn't mean that I don't want to do other things with you.

And just because
Even if there are multiple reasons behind my actions or words, it doesn't diminish their validity.

I don't want to lay down wit ya tonight
Just because I'm not ready to be physically intimate with you tonight, it doesn't mean that I don't have feelings for you.

It don't mean that I don't want you
My decision not to be physically intimate tonight doesn't change my overall desire for you.

I need to know
Communication is key in any relationship, and it's important to know where each person stands.

If you're really feelin' me
It's important to know if the other person shares the same feelings and desires in the relationship.

Tell me so
Honesty and openness are necessary for building trust and intimacy in a relationship.

Cause what you feel could either turn me on
Knowing how your partner feels can be a turn-on and make the relationship stronger.

(Or it could just be one of those nights)
It's important to acknowledge that sometimes intimacy doesn't necessarily have deeper emotional meaning.

Where we can just sit and talk on the phone
Sometimes just talking and connecting emotionally can be more important than physical intimacy.

(I really want to go home with you)
Just because I want to be physically intimate with you, it doesn't mean that my emotions for you aren't genuine.

But I gotta know just how you feel
It's important to understand what the other person wants and how they feel before making decisions in a relationship.

And if you feel me, then it's gotta be real
In order for a relationship to be successful, both partners need to have genuine feelings for each other.

Baby, baby, you can lay me down
If I feel ready and comfortable, physical intimacy can be a part of our relationship.

(Cuz I'm gettin' hot, can you hit the spot?)
Physical attraction and desire are normal and healthy components of any relationship.

I'm in the mood but won't fool around
Even though I am feeling sexual desire, I won't be selfish or manipulative for my own satisfaction.

(I'm not tryin' to play no games)
I am being honest about my intentions and feelings, and not trying to manipulate or hurt the other person in any way.

Cause if we move too fast
Moving too quickly in a physical relationship can sometimes have negative emotional consequences.

I know this feel good won't last
Instant gratification may not always result in long-lasting satisfaction or happiness.

And I can't have that
I don't want to sacrifice the emotional connection with you just for temporary physical pleasure.

So when you hear me sayin' no to you
My refusals to engage in physical intimacy in certain situations are not personal rejections, but are based on my own internal values and beliefs.

Understand
It's important for both partners to understand and respect each other's personal boundaries and values.

Can't lay me down tonight
I am not comfortable with physical intimacy tonight.

But when I feel the time is right
Physical intimacy can be a positive and healthy part of a relationship when both partners are ready and in agreement.

You can hit it if your hat's on tight
Physical intimacy should not be an act of manipulation or selfishness, but should be based on mutual respect and agreement.

If you want to hit it, ooh, ah, baby
Physical intimacy is only desirable when both partners are comfortable and willing to engage in it.

We can do
Physical intimacy should not be coerced, but should come from a place of mutual desire and willingness to connect with each other.

All the things that you want to
Partners should feel comfortable and safe communicating their desires and boundaries to each other in order to build a healthy and fulfilling relationship.

It don't mean that I don't want to
Just because I am not physically intimate tonight doesn't diminish my overall desire for you and our relationship.
