I know your mother never liked me

She doesn't know the shady things you put me through

I got trouble recognizing

The things about you that I think I thought I knew.

I love you in a messed up way

It makes it difficult to find the words to say

There's not a better time or place.

I think I need, think I need a little space

Between your name and my lips I need a space

I send your calls and your kisses outer space

I know I wanted a taste but my senses came back

Now I know imma need a little space.

You put too much and too little on my plate

Don't wanna be somebody you're gonna hate

I need your key to my place we were movin' too fast

Now I know imma need a little space.

Imma need a little

Imma need a little

We were moving too fast

Now I know imma need a little.

I know you're heavy on my conscience

And there's nobody sleeping on your pillow side

If you're gonna be my constant

You've got a lot to figure out and so do I

I love you in a messed up way

It makes it difficult to find the words to say

There's not a better time or place.

I think I need, think I need a little space

Between your name and my lips I need a space

I send your calls and your kisses outer space

I know I wanted a taste but my senses came back

Now I know imma need a little space.

You put too much and too little on my plate

Don't wanna be somebody you're gonna hate

I need your key to my place we were movin' too fast

Now I know imma need a little space.

Imma need a little (space)

I need your key to my place

We were moving too fast

Now I know imma need a little.

Imma need a little (space)

Imma need a little (space)

Imma need a little (space)

I love you in a messed up way

It makes it difficult to find the words to say

There's not a better time or place.

I think I need, think I need a little space

Between your name and my lips I need a space

I send your calls and your kisses outer space

I know I wanted a taste but my senses came back

Now I know imma need a little space.

You put too much and too little on my plate

Don't wanna be somebody you're gonna hate

I need your key to my place we were movin' too fast

Now I know imma need a little space.

I need a little space.
