B.O.A.T. Lyrics
- Lyrics
- Meaning
[Intro]
We at the hotel, motel, Holiday Inn
We at the hotel, motel
[Verse 1]
Lying in bed, replaying the shit you said
Ever regret all the messing with my head?
'Cause I've been thinkin'
You'd never give me peace of mind, so I had to give it to myself
You never think it's the right time until I'm good with someone else
You'd probably have me for a lifetime if you didn't need some help
I wish, I wish you'd say
[Chorus]
You were right
That I want you when you're not mine
And just when I think I
Know how to live without you, I forget why I try (Holiday Inn)
You were right (We at the hotel, motel, Holiday Inn)
And I fucked up, baby, big time (We at the hotel, motel, Holiday Inn)
And just when I think I
Could fall in love without you, I forget why I try (We at the hotel, motel)
You were the best of all time
[Post-Chorus]
(We at the hotel, motel, Holiday Inn)
(We at the hotel, motel, Holiday)
[Verse 2]
Texts I won't send, we both know how that shit ends
Trying again, too jealous to just be friends
'Cause now I'm thinkin'
You'd never ask me who I'm givin' all of my body to now
You'd never ask me 'bout these nights, baby, I pray that you find out
You couldn't give me your heart, boy, go and eat your heart out
I wish you'd say
[Chorus]
You were right
That I want you when you're not mine
And just when I think I
Know how to live without you, I forget why I try (Holiday Inn)
You were right (We at the hotel, motel, Holiday Inn)
And I fucked up, baby, big time (We at the hotel, motel, Holiday Inn)
And just when I think I
Could fall in love without you, I forget why I try (We at the hotel, motel)
You were the best of all time
[Outro]
(Hotel, motel, Holiday Inn)
(We at the hotel, motel, Holiday Inn)
(We at the—)
(Forget about your boyfriend and meet me at the hotel room)
