Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Never thought I could feel so safe in the silence
'Til I was standing on the other side of your door
Now my shirt's on backwards, whole room's gone violet
And we're laying on the bed we made on the floor
[Pre-Chorus]
Still fighting with the pieces of me that's stuck in the past
But slowly, baby, maybe you'll untangle it
[Chorus]
I know waisting time with you is not waste of time
If I stay forever tell me that's alright
Take every part of my love
Drive into the city, we can see the lights
No money, no gimmicks, just you and I
And this is morе than enough
No money, no gimmicks, yeah
[Verse 2]
Rеmember when you'd kiss my cheek so politely
Now there's not a single part of me you don't know
Baby, you don't gotta let go, no grip tightly
I want you to make my heart overflow
[Pre-Chorus]
You can't call it falling if you're not letting go

So baby, be the safety net I need below
[Chorus]
I know waisting time with you is not waste of time
If I stay forever tell me that's alright
Take every part of my love
Drive into the city we can see the lights
No money, no gimmicks, just you and I
And this is more than enough
Ooh (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Ooh (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
No money, no gimmicks, yeah
Ooh (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Oh, oh, oh, yeah
No money, no gimmicks, yeah
[Bridge]
I don't need gimmicks with you
Boy, you're a state of mind
Strip back only what matters
Leave the excess behind
I don't need gimmicks with you
Just need you in my life
Strip back only what matters
Leave the excess behind
[Chorus]
Waisting time with you is not waste of time (Oh)
If I stay forever tell me that's alright
Take every part of my love (Every part of my love)
Drive into the city we can see the lights
No money, no gimmicks, just you and I (Oh)
And this is more than enough (More than enough)
[Outro]
I don't need gimmicks with you
Boy, you're a state of mind
Strip back only what matters
No money, no gimmicks, yeah
I don't need gimmicks with you
Just need you in my life
Strip back only what matters
No money, no gimmicks
No money, no gimmicks
No money, no gimmicks
No money, no gimmicks
No money, no, uh
