Lyrics

She said I'll love you for a long time

The speaker's romantic partner assures them of long-lasting love.

Wanna know if you're the right guy

The partner questions if the speaker is the right fit for them.

I wanna know if it's the wrong time

Uncertainty about the timing of their relationship is expressed.

She got me dancing in the night time

The partner's influence leads the speaker to dance during the night.

She said I'll love you for a long time

Reiteration of the partner's commitment to love for a significant duration.

Wanna know if you're the right guy

Reiterating the partner's inquiry regarding the speaker's suitability.

I wanna know if it's the wrong time

Repeating doubts about the timing of their relationship.

She got me dancing in the night time

The partner's influence causing the speaker to dance in the nighttime is reiterated.

In the night time

Emphasis on actions occurring during the nighttime.

In the night time it ain't makin' any sense

The situation during the nighttime seems confusing to the speaker.

No I lied, I woulda loved you 'til the end

The speaker admits they would have loved the partner until the end, despite earlier statements.

So bye bye, I say this coming from a friend

The speaker bids goodbye, claiming to say so as a friend.

You're a highlight, sike (uh)

The partner is called a highlight but immediately contradicted with "sike" (meaning "just kidding" or "not really").

Can you tell me when you found love in another person's bed again

A query about the partner's experience of finding love in someone else's bed.

It ain't love that you found, it's just sedatives

Still trippin' off those words you said, I let 'em in

I guess you really love it like that (uh)

Toxic, where the love's at (sike)

Treated like shit, that's where your love was at (uh)

(I guess)

(Maybe its because of the way you are)

(But like)

(Love is not supposed to be like that)

-

(If you truly do like someone)

(I think)

(They should be a huge part of your life)
