Poolside convo about your summer last night, ooh, yeah
About your summer last night
Ain't give you no play, mmm
Could I make it shive last night?
Could I make it shive on the last night (last night?)
Could we make it in? Do we have time?
I'll be the boyfriend in your wet dreams tonight
Noses on a rail, little virgin wears the white
You cut your hair, but you used to live a blonded life
Wish I was there, wish we'd grown up on the same advice
And our time was right

Keep a place for me, for me
I'll sleep between y'all, it's nothing
It's nothing, it's nothing
Keep a place for me, for me
Now and then you miss it, sounds make you cry
Some nights you dance with tears in your eyes
And I came to visit 'cause you see me like a UFO
That's like never, 'cause I made you use your self-control
And you made me lose my self-control, my self-control
Keep a place for me, for me
I'll sleep between y'all, it's nothing
Keep a place for me
It's nothing, it's nothing
It's nothing, it's nothing

I, I, I know you gotta leave, leave, leave
Take down some summer time

You're spitting game, know you got it

Take down some summer time
Give up, just tonight, night, night
I, I, I know you got someone comin'
You're spitting game, know you got it (yeah)
