I messed around, fell in love
I found myself in a dilemma
From the roses and clothes he bring me
I know he was kind of clingy
And I know you're thinking
You've been waiting for a love with a heart so tender
And I got blanket in the winter
To cover you and keep u warm

But I don't feel covered (I don't)
I'm feeling smothered (at all)
My breath is shorter (oh)
Like I'm under water

Don't wanna suffocate
Baby, baby let me breathe a minute
I'm giving you the game, don't win me, oh, no baby don't
Suffocate, baby, baby don't be greedy
Cover me, don't hover me
No, no, don't suffocate me
Baby, no, no, don't suffocate me
Baby, no, no, don't suffocate me

I took the gifts, I took the car
Fancy parties on my birthday (birthday)
Couldn't get up the nerve to refuse you,
I don't have the heart to use you (I don't)
But the more you try to draw me in
Feel like the walls are closing on me
I used to love the way you hold me (me)
I said don't ever let me go

But I don't feel covered (I don't) 
I'm feeling smothered (I know)
My breath is shorter (oh)
Like I'm under water (oh)

Don't wanna suffocate
Baby, baby, let me breathe a minute
I'm giving you the game with me, for once baby don't
Suffocate, baby, baby don't be greedy
Cover me, don't hover me
No, no, don't suffocate me
Baby, no, no, don't suffocate me
Baby, no, no, don't suffocate me
Baby, baby, let me breathe
Baby, no, no, don't suffocate me
Baby, no, no, don't suffocate me

If you want the best of me
You gotta stop pressing me
Back up and just let me breathe (uh huh, uh huh)
Don't wanna upset you, babe
Just trying to communicate
You gotta let me breathe, oh, yeah (uh huh, uh huh)
