Hide Out lyrics

[Intro]

Can anyone live with Eartha Kitt?

That's not for me to decide

That’s for someone who decides to live with me to decide

Not for me

But are you willing to compromise within a relationship?

To compromise? What is compromising?

Compromising for what?

Compromising for what reason?

[Verse 1]

You don't have to call me, you don't gotta say it

I already guessed, love

You been playin’

I don't need to know where you are now

I don't see no reason for a blowout

I was here the whole time, you were busy chasing

You don't know what you had, I'm amazing

[Pre-Chorus 1]

I was all in and you was all out

I'll get back up after this fall-down

Look me in my eyes and tell me you never loved me, yeah

Babe, it's no surprise, if I was you I'd feel lucky, uh, uh

[Chorus 1]

Yeah, you striked out

All the times, thought that I didn’t know ’bout

All the lies you denied, but I know now

'Bout your hideout

I can’t believe you thought I'd never find out, ha

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! A man comes into my life and I have to compromise?

You said all these things

You must think about that one again

[Verse 2]

I ignored the rumours, there's my lesson

Clearly I'm the humour, and you been messin’

Always talkin' 'bout the future when you not even present

Well, I'm the prize, uh, I'm the blessing

I was cool to slow down, you were busy racing

Had it all figured out, you knew I'd cave in

[Pre-Chorus 2]

I was all in and you was all out

I'll come back up after this comedown

Look me in my face and tell me this ain't bravado, hey

I let you set the pace, all I did was just follow, yeah, yeah

[Chorus 2]

Well, you striked out

All the likes, thought that I didn't know 'bout

All the times you denied, but I know now

'Bout your hideout

Well, I can't believe you thought I'd never find out, no

[Outro]

I think, if you were to think about it in terms of analyzing...

You said all these things, ha-ha

Yes...I'll fall in love with myself and I want someone to share it with me

La, la, la, la-la-la-la

I can't believe you thought I'd never find out

About your hideout, uh
