Wrong
ZAYN feat. Kehlani Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Show me in the same light
Feels right when we take flight
Clothes off 'cause she's so soft
This ain't a fair fight, yeah
Wanna shed light on the subject
I'll get her wetter than ever
Four letters are never the question
And I like when she's undressing
You're looking in the wrong place for my love
Don't think because you're with me this is real
You're looking in the wrong place for my love (my love)
Don't stop what you're doing 'cause I like how you're doing it
Here with you 'cause you got the right vibe
Seems like you probably got a dope mind
But it's gotta be the right time
We're only good for the night time
I see through your demeanor
Baby, I'm a pleaser
I go out my way to treat you
But I can't be your teacher
'Cause I'm a problem with problems
I know who I am and I'm not no good
You can have me tonight or never, I thought you understood
Baby, some people are meant to be loved and others just make it
So take what I'm willing to give and love it or hate it
You're looking in the wrong place for my love
Don't think because you're with me this is real (oh-oh)
You're looking in the wrong place for my love
Don't stop what you're doing 'cause I like how you're doing it, no
Don't stop what you're doing
Don't stop what you're doing (don't stop, uh)
I don't, I don't really know (uh-oh)
I don't, I don't really care (don't stop, uh)
Maybe keep it on the low (don't stop, uh)
With stories that I don't wanna share (I don't, uh, don't stop)
You're looking in the wrong place for my love (for my love)
Don't think because you're with me this is real
You're looking in the wrong place for my love (my love)
Don't stop what you're doing 'cause I like how you're doing it, no
You're looking in the wrong place for my love
Don't think because you're with me this is real
You're looking in the wrong place for my love (for my love)
Don't stop what you're doing 'cause I like how you're doing it
The lyrics to ZAYN feat. Kehlani's song "Wrong" explore a complicated and ambiguous relationship between two individuals. The singer acknowledges that they are not in the same place, both geographically and emotionally, as the person they are with. They ask the other person to see them in a different light, one that feels right when they are together. The sexual tension between them is evident, as they describe undressing and getting wetter than ever. However, the singer also notes that four letters (presumably meaning love) is never the question, implying that their connection is purely physical rather than emotional.
The chorus repeats several times, with the singer telling the other person that they are looking in the wrong place for their love. They seem to be warning the other person not to get too attached or expect anything more from the relationship. They enjoy being with the other person and are mutually attracted to them, but the singer doesn't want to be mistaken for more than they are.
The second verse reinforces the idea that the singer is not interested in a serious commitment. They enjoy being with the other person and pleasing them, but they can't be a teacher or mentor. The singer admits to being a "problem with problems," implying that they are not in a stable place emotionally. They suggest that their physical relationship is a temporary arrangement and that love is not in the cards for them.
Overall, "Wrong" is a song about a passionate but complicated relationship between two people who are not on the same page emotionally. The lyrics suggest that the connection is primarily physical and that the singer is not interested in a serious commitment.

[Verse 1: ZAYN]
Oh, we're not on the same place
Show me in the same light
Feels right when we take flight
Clothes off 'cause she's so soft
This ain’t a fair fight
I wanna shed light on the subject
I'll get her wetter than ever
Four letters are never the question
She likes when I’m messy
And I like when she’s undressing
[Chorus: ZAYN]
You’re looking in the wrong place for my love
Don’t think because you’re with me this is real
You’re looking in the wrong place for my love
Don’t stop what you're doing 'cause I like how you're doing it
[Verse 2: Kehlani]
Here with you 'cause you got the right vibe

We're only good for the night time
I see through your demeanor
Baby, I’m a pleaser
I go out my way to treat you
But I can’t be a teacher
'Cause I’m a problem with problems
I know who I am and I’m not no good

(Don't stop)
[Chorus: ZAYN & Kehlani]
You’re looking in the wrong place for my love

@TaylorSteinbruckner
I’m actually shook that I’m learning some of the proper lyrics now. Like I thought it was “oh you and I, on the same night, show me in the same light...”, “Let me take flight,” “Gloves off, yours are so soft,” “I wanna shella, we’ll be so jank,” “She likes when I’m messy and I like when she’s undressed,” and “Don’t stop what you’re doing, ‘cause I like that too...”
I was wayyy off. 😂😂 And I always kinda mumbled Kehlani’s but anyway.
@ScarlettJ1221
Zayn deserves a Grammy
