Lately
Yazmin Lacey Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lately I've been acting up baby
But it's morning now so please come bring me home
And I'm sorry for the things I said to you
My sharp silver tongue got me twisted and I'm exposed
Lately I've been showing off baby
But the moons gone down and the suns come to me home
And I'm sorry for the way I made you feel
My sharp silver tongue got me twisted and I'm exposed
Lately I've been deeping this shit baby and your the one who makes it feel like home
And I'm sorry
Yes I'm sorry
I think it has something to do with the love I've been shown

Ahhhh Lately
Aah Lately I
Lately I have wanted to come home
And I feel like
Oh oh I feel like
(Home)

In the morning tried to hide it
I know it's not right when
It's not right when I don't wake with you

In the morning tried to fight it
But I know it's not right when
It's not right when I don't wake with you

In the morning tried to fight it (Come and take me)
I know it's not right when (I'm your lady)
It's not right when I don't wake with you (Come and take me home)

In the morning tried to fight it (Come and take me)
I know it's not right when (Trust, I'm your lady)
It's not right when I don't wake with you (Come and bring me home)

Oooooohhh oooohhhh ooooohhhhh
I I IIIIIII I I I
Lately I





(Lately, Lately I)
