Lyrics
Hey, you there Can we take it to the next level Baby, do you dare? Don't be scared 'Cause if you can say the words I don't know why I should care

'Cause here I am I'm giving all I can But all you ever do is mess it up Yeah, I'm right here I'm tryna make it clear That getting half of you, just ain't enough

I'm not gonna wait until you're done Pretending you don't need anyone I'm standing here naked (Naked, naked) I'm standing here naked (Naked, naked) I'm not gonna try 'til you decide You're ready to swallow all your pride I'm standing here naked (Naked, naked) I'm standing here naked (Naked, naked)

Hey, get out I've got nothing left to give And you give me nothing now Read my mouth If you ever want me back Then your walls need breaking down

'Cause here I am I'm giving all I can But all you ever do is mess it up (all you ever do yeah) Yeah, I'm right here I'm tryna make it clear That getting half of you, just ain't enough

I'm not gonna wait until you're done Pretending you don't need anyone I'm standing here naked (Naked, naked) I'm standing here naked (Naked, naked) I'm not gonna try 'til you decide You're ready to swallow all your pride I'm standing here naked (Naked, naked) I'm standing here naked (Naked, naked)

I wanna give you everything I wanna give you everything I wanna give you everything I wanna give you everything

I'm not gonna wait until you're gone 'Cause you pretended you don't need anyone Can't you see that I'm naked (Naked, naked) See that I'm naked (Naked, naked) I'm not gonna try 'til you decide You're ready to swallow all your pride I'm standing here naked (Naked, naked) I'm standing here naked (Naked, naked) I'm standing I'm standing here
