(Ah, la, la, la, la)

(Ah, la, la, la, la)

(Ah, la, la, la, la)

I met this girl late last year

She said: Don't you worry if I disappear

I told her: I'm not really looking for another mistake

I called an old friend, thinking that the trouble would wait

But then I jumped right in a week later, returned

I reckon she was only looking for a lover to burn

But I gave her my time, for two or three nights

Then I put it on pause until the moment was right

I went away for months until our paths crossed again

She told me: I was never looking for a friend

Maybe you could swing by my room around ten

Baby, bring the lemon and a bottle of gin

We'll be in between the sheets till the late AM

Baby, if you wanted me, then should have just said, she's singing

Ah, la, la, la, la

Don't fuck with my love

That heart is so cold

All over my arm

I don't wanna know that, babe (ah, la, la, la, la)

Don't fuck with my love

I told her she knows

Take, aim and reload

I don't wanna know that, babe (ah, la, la, la, la)

And for a couple weeks, I only wanna see her

We drink away the days with a takeaway pizza

Before, a text message was the only way to reach her

Now she's staying at my place and loves the way I treat her

Singing out Aretha, all over the track, like a feature

And never wants to sleep, but guess that I don't want to either

But me and her, we make money the same way

Four cities, two planes, the same day

And those shows have never been what it's about

But maybe, we'll go together and just figure it out

I'd rather put on a film with you and sit on a couch

But we should get on a plane or we'll be missing it now

Wish I'd have written it down, the way that things played out

When she was kissing him, how I was confused about

Now she should figure it out while I'm sat here singing

(Ah, la, la, la, la)

Don't fuck with my love

That heart is so cold

All over my arm

I don't wanna know that, babe (ah, la, la, la, la)

Don't fuck with my love

I told her she knows

Take, aim and reload

I don't wanna know that, babe (ah, la, la, la, la)

(Knock, knock, knock) on my hotel door

I don't even know if she knows what for

She was crying on my shoulder, I already told ya

Trust and respect is what we do this for

I never intended to be next

But you didn't need to take him to bed, that's all

And I never saw him as a threat

Until you disappeared with him to have sex, of course

It's not like we were both on tour

We were staying on the same fucking hotel floor

And I wasn't looking for a promise or commitment

But it was never just fun and I thought you were different

This is not the way you realized what you wanted

It's a bit too much, too late, if I'm honest

And all this time, God knows I'm singing

(Ah, la, la, la, la)

Don't fuck with my love

That heart is so cold

All over my arm

I don't wanna know that, babe (ah, la, la, la, la)

Don't fuck with my love

I told her she knows

Take, aim and reload

I don't wanna know that, babe (ah, la, la, la, la)

Don't fuck with my love

That heart is so cold

All over my arm

I don't wanna know that, babe (ah, la, la, la, la)

Don't fuck with my love

I told her she knows

Take, aim and reload

I don't wanna know that, babe (ah, la, la, la, la)
