Single
The Neighbourhood Lyrics

I don't know if we should be alone together
I have doubts about being alone with you

I still got a crush, that's obvious
It's clear that I have feelings for you

If nobody's around, what's stopping us?
There's nothing preventing us from being together when no one's watching

Everywhere I go you show, whatever
You're always on my mind and I can't help but think about you

I don't ever mind sharing oxygen
I don't mind being close to you and sharing the same air

I just wanna get lost in your lungs
I want to be so close to you that it's like I'm a part of you

Just a baby, but she's growing up so fast
She's still young, but she's maturing quickly

And I'm allergic to the waiting
I can't stand waiting for her to grow up and be mine

She's just a baby girl
She's still young and innocent

And I love to watch her dance
I enjoy watching her grow and develop as a person

But it's making me go crazy
It's difficult for me to wait for her to be old enough

I don't think that we should be around each other
I believe it's best for us not to be together

When you're in the room, you get my eyes
I can't help but focus on you when you're around

You open your mouth, I'm hypnotized, oh oh
Your words are powerful and captivating to me

I can make you laugh until you cry
I have a talent for making you happy and bringing you joy

You know you got all my attention
I am solely focused on you and give you all my attention

You know you got all mine, mmh
You have all of my affection and love

Baby, I can't help but call her dad
I see her as a daughter figure, even though she's not mine

Even though I shouldn't say it
I know it's not appropriate for me to feel this way

She was my baby girl
I have a deep emotional connection to her

I might never get her back
I may not have the chance to be with her in the way I desire

But I don't mind being patient, yeah
I'm willing to wait for her to be ready, whenever that may be

Can you let your baby be my girl?
Can you allow me to be with her and love her?

Okay, I'm just gonna tell you what I gotta say, right here
I'm going to say what's on my mind, right now

I'm sorry Dave, I never meant to hurt your baby girl
I apologize to her father for any pain I may have caused

She's your little baby, she's my soulmate
She's his daughter, but I feel a deep emotional connection to her

I don't want you to worry, she'll be so safe right here
I want to reassure him that I will take care of her and keep her safe

Oh, oh, oh, so Dave, would you let your baby be my girl?
I'm asking for his permission to be with his daughter

Oh, your baby she's mine
I feel like she's already mine emotionally, even though we're not together
