[Intro]

I need you to choose

I need you to choose

I need you to choose

I need you to choo-oo-oose

[Chorus]

Choose your words carefully

You don't know what to call it

But it’s clear for me

I get lost in time when you stare

Here for now but are you tryna be there?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Choose your words carefully

Be careful

Be careful please

Choose your words carefully

Be careful

Be careful please

[Chorus]

I need you to choose your words carefully (Carefully)

You don't know what to call it

But it's clear for me

I get lost in time when you stare

Here for now but are you tryna be there?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Choose your words carefully

Be careful

Be careful please

Choose your words carefully

Be careful (Shh)

Be careful please

[Verse 1]

I need you to choose your words

Like they’re the last ones you might ever say to me

Please, you're bugging let's keep peace

This loving an antique, you might end up breaking me

Fragile at my core, my mother

Told me what that's for: a lover

Let me know the score, 'cause other-

Wise I'm out that door

An-no-no-no naah-nuh

I don't wanna leave on terms like this

Never had an experience burn like this

So make me use words like this

Like dada-da-daa-da

Maybe I'm in too deep

Levels that we can’t complete

Still got your smell on my sheets

So I’m begging you please

[Chorus]

Choose your words carefully

You don't know what to call it

But it’s clear for me

I get lost in time when you stare

Here for now but are you tryna be there?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Choose your words carefully

Be careful

Be careful please

Choose your words carefully

Be careful

Be careful please
