[Verse 1] 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 lookin' 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 10 Baby, bring the lemon and a bottle of gin We'll be in between the sheets till the late a.m." Baby, if you wanted me then you should have just said, she's singin' [Chorus] Don't **** with my love That heart is so cold All over my home I don't wanna know that, babe Don't **** with my love I told her, she knows Take aim and reload I don't wanna know that, babe [Verse 2] 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 stayin' 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, I 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 missin' it now Wish I'd have written it down, the way that things played out When she was kissin' him, how I was confused about Now, she should figure it out while I'm sat here singing [Chorus] Don't **** with my love That heart is so cold All over my home I don't wanna know that, babe Don't **** with my love I told her, she knows Take aim and reload I don't wanna know that, babe [Verse 3] On my hotel door I don't even know if she knows what for She was cryin' on my shoulder, I already told ya Trust and respect is what we do this for I never intended to be next (Get lost) But you didn't need to take him to bed, that's all And I never saw him as a threat (Get lost) Until you disappeared with him to have sex, of course It's not like we were both on tour We were stayin' on the same **** hotel floor And I wasn't lookin' for a promise or commitment But it was never just fun and I thought you were different This is not the way you realised what you wanted It's a bit too much, too late, if I'm honest And all this time, God knows I'm singin' [Chorus] Don't **** with my love That heart is so cold All over my home I don't wanna know that, babe Don't **** with my love I told her, she knows Take aim and reload I don't wanna know that, babe Don't **** with my love That heart is so cold All over my home I don't wanna know that, babe Don't **** with my love I told her, she knows Take aim and reload I don't wanna know that, babe
