about

When it comes to heart matters, I just don't know how to act.

lyrics

Romance isn't more than a game
I already know
Cuz there's something about the chase
That feels so irresistible

I've been burned alive at the stake
So many times before
So I'll take one for the team
Wacha nifungue roho

I like Martha's neck
I like Olive's little pretty feet
I like Wanja's hair
I like Fridah's lips and pearly teeth
For great conversation I call up Kerubo
Anne gives great massages
And Faith's a freak on the low

By suppertime I hate myself and swear I will stop
By the morning I am groaning and I need me some love
My validation is flirtation
It's never enough


Called you a cab
While you called me names
And deep down inside
I said never again
The truth of the matter is love matters no more
I've got questions galore
And they're bugging me like
Do we break up at your place
Break up at mine
Should I call
Should I text
Should I do it online
Do I give you space or hold you tight
when you start to cry


When it comes to heart matters
Woah
I don't know how to act
When it comes to heart matters
Woah
I don't know how to act


Hey I've got a problem I'm so insecure
I follow my impulses like I'm immature
I always take my chance with someone beautiful
And brag about it later cuz I'm boastful

Hey there sister with the old soul
Come a little closer
Tell me what you know
What does that tattoo mean and where does it go?
Some wine with conversation helps the words flow

Hey señorita
It's really nice to meet you
Unless we've already met before
I've been looking at the time
And I've called an Uber ride
Cuz it's late I really need to go

Here's the thing
If you finish up your drink
We could leave this place and go explore
All the mysteries of the night
All the corners of your mind
No one has made me feel this way before

By suppertime I hate myself and swear I will stop
By the morning I am groaning and I need me some love
My validation is flirtation, it's never enough

Called you a cab
While you called me names
And deep down inside
I said never again
The truth of the matter is love matters no more
I've got questions galore
And they're bugging me like
Do we break up at your place
Break up at mine
Should I call
Should I text
Should I do it online
Do I give you space or hold you tight
when you start to cry
Woah

When it comes to heart matters
Woah
I don't know how to act
When it comes to heart matters
Woah
I don't know how to act
