Love Lies is a collaboration between Khalid and Normani.
Background[]
"Khalid is definitely such an amazing soul and I think that that’s why this record means so much to me personally. I know that it means a lot to him as well, it’s just because we’re genuine friends. Like, this wasn’t an A&R… somebody just putting us in a room together and being like, “Yo, make something dope.” It was literally like, I met him way back when he did “Young, Dumb & Broke.” He actually invited me and that was the first time we physically met in person, we had been talking for a minute, but he was just such a special person and I think that he’s such a necessary artist, but he’s an even better person", according to Normani.
Lyrics[]
Khalid:
Sorry if it's hard to catch my vibe, mmm
I need a lover to trust, tell me you're on my side
Are you down for the ride?
It's not easy for someone to catch my eye
But I've been waitin' for you for my whole damn life
For my whole lifetime
Don't be afraid to tell me if you ain't with it (you ain't with it)
I see you're focused, yeah you're so independent (independent)
It's hard for me to open up, I'll admit it (I'll admit it)
You've got some shit to say and I'm here to listen
So baby
Khalid and Normani:
Tell me where your love lies
Waste the day and spend the night
Underneath the sunrise
Show me where your love lies
Normani:
I've been so into your mystery
Is it because of our history?
Are you into me?
When it feels so good, but it's bad for you
Can't say I don't want it 'cause I know I do
Come on over, I need your company
Cravin' that synergy
Don't be afraid to tell me if you ain't with it (you ain't with it)
I see you're focused, yeah, you're so independent (independent)
It's hard for me to open up, I'll admit it (I'll admit it)
You've got some shit to say and I'm here to listen
So baby
Khalid and Normani (Normani ad-libs):
Tell me where your love lies
Waste the day and spend the night
Underneath the sunrise
Show me where your love lies
Tell me where your love lies
Waste the day and spend the night
Underneath the sunrise
Show me where your love lies
If you're down, don't hide it
Feelin' me, you don't gotta deny it
Baby you gon' make me overnight it
Tell me, are you down?
If you're down, don't hide it (Yeah)
Feelin' me, you don't gotta deny it (Yeah)
Baby you gon' make me overnight it
Tell me, are you down? (Khalid: Tell me)
Tell me where your love lies (Tell me where your love lies)
Waste the day and spend the night (Waste the day, spend the night)
Underneath the sunrise (underneath the sunrise)
Show me where your love lies (Tell me where your love lies)
Tell me where your love lies (Show me where your love lies)
Waste the day and spend the night (Yeah, yeah)
Underneath the sunrise (Ooh)
Show me where your love lies
