Wizkid sings about a love that’s real and steady, describing moments of intimacy and trust. He mentions ‘a melody stuck in my head, who says anything is off-limits after midnight?’ The poet focuses on the beauty of shared connection and late-night escapes.
Woah-oh, oh-ohWoah-oh, oh-oh.
Girl, the way you, girl, the way you do me rightGirl, the way you treat me right,

Say I’ve been calling and calling ’cause I know say your love na confirmI’ve been calling you over and over because I know your love is the real deal.
Many, many girls dey my life, but na you wey dey my side, yeahThere are so many girls in my life, but you’re the only one by my side, yeah.
Say make you hold meI’m telling you to hold me,
Say you know say na the loving, say na surelybecause you know this love is certain and true.
J’peux pas m’prononcerI can’t even find the words to say,
Ma baby m’fait comprendre que j’peux pas renoncerbut my baby makes me realize that I can’t give up on this.
T’as fait de moi un boss, un boss comme RozayYou’ve made me feel like a ‘boss’ like Rick Ross.
J’peux pas résister quand tu remplis l’roséI can’t resist you when you’re pouring the rosé wine.
I like it, la nuit quand j’viens te dérangerI like it at night when I come to visit you,
T’as les épaules sur lesquelles j’peux m’reposerbecause you have the shoulders I can always lean on.
T’es juste un mélange de nos deux peaux foncéesYou’re just a beautiful blend of our two dark skins.
Yeah, allons au bout d’nos pensées, yeah, I like itYeah, let’s follow our deepest thoughts to the end, yeah, I like it.
J’ai dans la tête une mélodieI’ve got a melody stuck in my head,
Qui dit interdit après minuit ?who says anything is off-limits after midnight?
Sans te mentir, j’veux m’évaderTo be honest, I just want to escape with you,
Mais tu m’as choisi même dans le pirebut you chose to stay with me even at my worst.
Dans la tête une mélodieThere’s a melody in my head,
Qui dit interdit après minuit ?who says anything is forbidden after midnight?

C’est moi qu’t’as choisi, chulo papiI’m the one you chose, your handsome man.
Whenever you close to meWhenever you’re close to me,
You dey gimme balance, girlyou give me balance, girl.
Mm, my baby hold it down for meMm, my baby keeps things steady for me.
So many other likkle things you dey do, wey dey bring me to youThere are so many other little things you do that draw me to you.
It’s more than anything anyone can doIt’s more than anything anyone else could ever do.
You know me much better than the people doYou know me much better than the world does.
Anything we do gonna make the news, your body the truth (Ah-ah)Anything we do will make headlines, because your body is the absolute truth.
I need a type of vibe that can go for miles (Ah-ah)I need the kind of vibe that can last for miles.
