Daniel Caesar - Hold Me Down

(Could you, could you say, uh, "I love you, Danny"?)
(You want me to?)
(Could you?)
(I love you, Danny)

If you love me, baby, let me hear you say it
I know I'm your favorite
First you love me, then you leave me in the basement
I know I'm your favorite
If you love me, baby, let me hear you say it
I know I'm your favorite
First you love me, then you leave me on the pavement
I know I'm your favorite

I got this girl, she's makin' me crazy
I nearly let her have all my babies
So good, it sets me on fire
I leave myself, I elevate higher
You're fly, girl, but you're headed to maybe
I'll take the time, treat you like a lady, yeah
My life's a spectacle, a sad story
Perhaps I'll find my way to the glory, yes

I'm the one that took you to higher heights
That's all I was tryin' to do
I know you had your dreams of a better life
This time we ain't makin' it through

If you love me, baby, let me hear you say it
I know I'm your favorite
First you love me, then you leave me in the basement
I know I'm your favorite
If you love me, baby, let me hear you say it
I know I'm your favorite
First you love me, then you leave me on the pavement
I know I'm your favorite

You're getting on a plane
And travelling far away
You've left me with the pain
I carry it every day
Who do you think you are?
Some kind of celebrity?
Just wait and see

I never asked for much, only that you stay true
Need I remind you all the things I do for you?
Who can I blame? I played the game, well just for now
I was wonderin', can you hold me down?
I was wonderin', can you hold me down?
