All this distance
Yea this distance
Been messing me up
I need to see you more
I need to touch you more
I need to see you so

Hook

Can we just run away and
Have some time to ourselves
To ourselves
So can we just run away and
Have some time to ourselves
To ourselves

Verse

Never gonna lose focus
Focus, focus
Never gon set my eye on another
Got a peng ting
And I don’t want no wahala
Shawty whine up yuh waist
Whine up yuh waist
Shawty whine up yuh waist
Shawty whine up your waistline
Girl you know that I love you
I will never ever hurt you
Put nobody else above you
For your love I’ll do anything
Girl you know that I love you
I will never ever hurt you
Put nobody else above you
For your love I’ll do anything

I need to touch you more
I need to see you so

Hook

Can we just run away and
Have some time to ourselves

So can we just run away and
Have some time to ourselves
To ourselves

Outro

Girl you know that I love you
I will never ever hurt you
Put nobody else above you
For your love I’ll do anything
