VENUS Album Lyrics by Zara Larsson

---

Can't Tame Her

Don't need no one, she can dance on her own
Club is closin', but she ain't goin' home
Night is still young, where the hell will she go?
Nobody knows, nobody knows
Ain't the first time 'cause I seen her before
Smell her perfume as she walks through the door
I wanna know, where the hell will she go?
Nobody knows, nobody, nobody knows

No, you can't tame the girl
'Cause she runs her own world
So if she wanna party all night (all night)
No, you can't tame her, no
And you can't tie her down
When the night comes around
Said, she gonna party all night (all night)
And you can't change her
Can't blame her, can't tame her

Can't tame her magic energy
She's so magnetic, pulls you in every time (every time)
Every time (every time)
But she don't care, she gonna do what she wants (she wants)
Because she never needed any reason (reason)
Yeah, she a girl and she just wanna have fun, ooh

No, you can't tame the girl (you can't tame her, no)
'Cause she runs her own world
So if she wanna party all night (all night)
No, you can't tame her, no
And you can't tie her down
When the night comes around
Said, she gonna party all night (all night)
And you can't change her
Can't blame her, can't tame her

(No)
(No)
And you can't change her
Can't blame her, can't tame her

Don't need no one, she can dance on her own
Club is closin', but she ain't goin' home
Night is still young, where the hell will she go?
Nobody, nobody, nobody knows
Ain't the first time, 'cause I seen her before
Smell her perfume as she walks through the door
I wanna know, where the hell will she go?
Nobody knows, nobody, nobody knows (no)

No, you can't tame the girl
'Cause she runs her own world (she runs her own world)
So if she wanna party all night (if she wanna party all night)
No, you can't tame her, no
And you can't tie her down
When the night comes around
Said she gonna party all night (all night)
And you can't change her (you can't)
Can't blame her, can't tame her (you can't)

(Can't tame the girl)
(Can't tame the girl)
And you can't change her
Can't blame her, can't tame her

More Than This Was

Yeah, we could've made up
Yeah, we should've stayed up tryna fix you and me
But all that I know is coulda, shoulda
Just don't mean a goddamn thing
Looking at you, I realize
Looking at you, I feel like I'm emotional
Watching our love go stupid, crazy
Fast until we lost control

Could you stay right by my side
One more time just to try?
What if we could've been so much more
Than this was? (Than this was)
Pretend you're mine for the night
Before I say goodbye
What if we could've been so much more
Than this was? (Than this was)

Yeah, we could've made up
Yeah, we should've stayed up tryna fix this love
'Cause all that I know is coulda, shoulda
Never really worked for us (for us, no, no)
Can we get back momentum?
'Cause I can feel the tension, do you feel it too?
Yeah, I've been up late and second-guessing
Reminiscing 'bout us two (ooh)

Could you stay right by my side
One more time just to try?
What if we could've been so much more
Than this was? (Than this was)
Pretend you're mine for the night
Before I say goodbye
What if we could've been so much more
Than this was? (Than this was)
Was it only young love?
Was I out of my mind?
Did we really mess up?
Can we press rewind?
What if we could've been so much more
Than this was? (Than this was, so much more, so much more)
Was it only young love? (Was it only young?)
Was I out of my mind? (Was I out of my mind?)
Did we really mess up? (Did we really mess up?)
Can we press rewind?
What if we could've been so much more
Than this was? (Than this was)

Yeah, we could've made up
Yeah, we should've stayed up tryna fix you and me
But all that I know is coulda, shoulda
Just don't mean a goddamn thing

Ammunition

You know my situation
Why you actin' like you can't be patient?
All I'm hearin' from you lately
You now got me so f*ckin' dated

(Mm-mm) boys like you love fantasy
(Mm-mm) anime, no, that ain't me
(Mm-mm) daydream 'bout controllin' things
(Mm-mm) sad you went so cold on me, come hold on me

You've been distant

Give me, give me, give me ammunition
Love me, love me, kiss me, touch me
I wanna give us a shot, please
Give me, give me, give me ammunition

You know my intuition (uh)

Give me, give me, give me ammunition
Love me, love me, kiss me, touch me

Can we just go back when I still believed in it?
If you got me way back then, life could've been different
Probably be livin' with you but after all I've been through, I
I get nervous when you swervin' me, can't think about you hurtin' me, I
Need you to prove your worth

You've been distant
I wanna give us a shot, please
Give me ammunition
Love me, kiss me
I wanna give us a shot, please (shot)

None Of These Guys

None of these guys (nothing on mine)
None of these, none of these, none of these, none of these-

None of these guys got nothing on mine
They're either too short, they're either too high
Yeah, none of these guy got nothing on mine (nothing on mine)
None of these guys got nothing on mine
They don't have his cool, they don't have his style
Yeah, none of these guy got nothing on mine (nothing on mine)

Gettin' sweaty and crowded
Drippin' down to my knees
They walk up, but I doubt they
Got the right energy
Hundred bodies touchin' all around
But I'm only lookin' at one
All these guys look alive but
They're just NPCs

None of these guys got nothing on mine
They're either too short, they're either too high
Yeah, none of these guy got nothing on mine (nothing on mine)
They got nothing, they got nothing
None of these guys got nothing on mine
They don't have his cool, they don't have his style
Yeah, none of these guy got nothing on mine (nothing on mine)

He's been workin' his way up
Only studyin' me
And I give him straight As but
I deserve only Ds
Slow-mo, time is frozen
We got lost in the commotion
When he hold me, I feel chosen
Eh-eh-eh

Through the night
Nobody can read the signs (eh-eh-eh)
You stand out from all these guys
Way you make me feel so right
Babe, I hate but I can't lie
I-I

None of these guys got nothing on mine
They're either too short, they're either too high
Yeah, none of these guy got nothing on mine (none of these guy got nothing on mine)
None of these guys got nothing on mine
They don't have his cool, they don't have his style
Yeah, none of these guy got nothing on mine, mine, mine, mine

Through the night (none of these guys)
Nobody can read the signs (none of these guys)
You stand out from all these guys (none of these guys)
Way you make me feel so right (none of these guys)
Babe, I hate but I can't lie

None of these guys got nothing on mine
They're either too short, they're either too high
Yeah, none of these guy got nothing on mine

You Love Who You Love

You're so in love with him, it's tragic
You just wanna have him all to yourself (ah)
And to your family, he's perfect
But behind the curtains, he's someone else (ah)

When will you use your common sense?
He drags you down instead of compliments
You know he ain't Heaven-sent
No, he ain't Heaven-sent, look at the evidence

Girl, give him up
I'm tellin' you as a friend
What he's putting you through is too much
I told you enough
But you don't wanna listen
You just tell me, "You love who you love"
Won't be long, it's a matter of time
'Til you call me 'cause he made you cry
Enough is enough
'Cause you don't wanna listen
You just tell me, "You love who you love"

It's like we goin' 'round in circles
He does this on purpose to keep you near (ah)
This toxic love makin' you feel like you're insane
He promised you he's gonna change, but he's the same

When will you use your common sense? (When will you use)
He drags you down instead of compliments
You know he ain't Heaven-sent
No, he ain't Heaven-sent, look at the evidence (oh, no, no, no)

Girl, give him up
I'm tellin' you as a friend
What he's putting you through is too much
I told you enough
But you don't wanna listen
You just tell me, "You love who you love"
Won't be long, it's a matter of time
'Til you call me 'cause he made you cry
Enough is enough
'Cause you don't wanna listen
You just tell me, "You love who you love"

Maybe one day, you will finally understand
That if you're lookin' for love, he isn't the man
I sound like a broken record
But you need to figure it out

Girl, give him up (give him up)
I'm tellin' you as a friend
What he's putting you through is too much
I told you enough
But you don't wanna listen
You just tell me, "You love who you love"
Won't be long, it's a matter of time (matter of time)
'Til you call me 'cause he made you cry
Enough is enough (is enough, is enough)
'Cause you don't wanna listen
You just tell me, "You love who you love"

End Of Time

Feel, I feel myself fallin'
All the blood rushed to my head, mm-mm
Knee-deep into emotion
And you make me want to sink to oblivion

I want your love
To roll the dice
I put it all on you and I
Until the end of time
I want your love
To start a fire
And keep it burnin' through the night
Baby, until the end of time

They will say that we're insane
And in a way, baby, we are, mm-mm
When you pull me close underneath that light
From the moment I looked into your eyes
Saw what I've been searchin' for all of this time
This time, oh

I want your love (I want your love)
To roll the dice (to roll the dice)
I put it all on you and I
Until the end of time
I want your love (I want your love)
To start a fire (to start a fire)
And keep it burnin' through the night
Baby, until the end of time

'Til the end, 'til the end, 'til the end of time

I want your love
To redefine
The very meaning of my life
Undo the fabric of my mind
I want your love
To start a fire
And keep it burnin' through the night
Until the end, the end, the end of f*ckin' time

La, la, la-la, la, la, la-la
La, la, la, la, la, la-la
La, la, la-la, la, la, la-la
La, la, la-la, la, la, la-la

Nothing

You can be quiet
You can deny it
Sit there in silence
All you want
Tell me you're fine, yeah
Give me a smile
But I know that something is goin' on

Ah-ah-ah
All because
One of us
Is sayin' nothing

And that's how it starts
Yeah, I know you well
When you say it's nothin'
It all falls apart
Yeah, I know too well
When you say it's nothin'
It's never nothin'
It's never nothin'

Somethin' has changed
When you say my name, and
You're not the same man anymore
Try to be patient
Givin' you space, but
Seems like your minds half way out the door (where you goin', baby?)

(Ah-ah-ah)
No more trust
Both of us
Know you're bluffin'

And that's how it starts (starts, starts)
'Cause I know you well
When you say it's nothin' (when you say it's nothin')
It all falls apart
Yeah, I know too well (when you say)
When you say it's nothin'
It's never nothin'
It's never nothin' (no, it's never nothin')
(No, it's never nothin')

I wish you could tell me
What you're thinkin'
What you're goin' through now
'Cause if you don't tell me
We can't fix it
Can't find a way out

If you still care
Want me there
Please, say somethin'

And that's how it starts (starts, starts)
I know you well (when you say it's nothin')
When you say it's nothin' (when you say it's, ah)
It all falls apart (it all falls apart)
Yeah, I know too well (too well)
When you say it's nothin'
It's never nothin' (nothin)
It's never nothin'

Escape

Everything's going like crazy
Don't even got time to breathe, mm
Lately, I'm needing my baby, mm
To come and take care of me, me, me, me

Please, could you pour my drink? Could you rub my feet?
Would you roll with me? Hey baby, I'm weak
In the knees, yeah
Please, could you pour my drink? 'Cause you know my kink
Would you roll with me? Hey baby, I'm weak
Come fly with me, yeah, yeah

Ooh, you got my heart goin', bae
Think we one and the same
Baby, be my escape
Maybe we could hop on a plane
Hear you callin' my name
Baby, be my escape
Got me feelin' like, ooh
Nah, nah, nah, yeah
Nah, nah, nah, whoa
Would be my, be my, be my escape?

Maybe our love is an island
This bed is a private beach, oh yeah
Imagine we shower of diamonds (shower, shower, shower)
Paradise, you and me, me, me

Please, could you pour my drink? Could you rub my feet?
Would you roll with me? Hey baby, I'm weak
In the knees, yeah, yeah
Please, could you pour my drink? 'Cause you know my kink
Would you roll with me? Hey baby, I'm weak
Come fly with me

Ooh, you got my heart goin', bae
Think we one and the same
Baby, be my escape
Maybe we could hop on a plane
Hear you callin' my name
Baby, be my escape
Got me feelin' like, ooh
Nah, nah, nah, yeah
Nah, nah, nah, whoa
Would be my, be my, be my escape?

See, it's a private flight
You can take me all the way, anywhere you like
Just don't let me go
Leave all the finer things
When I'm lying next to you, that's enough for me
Just don't let me go

Ooh, you got my heart goin', bae
Think we one and the same
Baby, be my escape
Maybe we could hop on a plane
Hear you callin' my name
Baby, be my escape
Got me feelin' like, ooh
Nah, nah, nah, yeah
Nah, nah, nah, oh
(Would you) would be my, be my, be my escape?
Nah, nah, nah, yeah
Nah, nah, nah, oh
Would be my, be my, be my escape?

Soundtrack

We danced to "Something In the Way She Moves"
You kissed me during "Karma Police"
And anytime I hear "Born to Die"
It's like I'm in a time machine

Anytime the rain starts coming down
Baby, I go back there in your arms
Wasting our youth on each other
That beautiful summer we lost one another

But we'll always have the soundtrack
Of us fallin' into love, yeah
And I know that we can't go back
But we'll always have the soundtrack

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh

Remember crying to "A Case of You"
'Cause you had never heard it before
I wonder, do you think about us?
Or do you ever wish we were more?

Even really good things fall apart
I hate how we broke each other's hearts
Wasted our youth on each other
That beautiful summer we lost one another

We'll always have the soundtrack
Of us fallin' into love, yeah
And I know that we can't go back
But we'll always have the soundtrack
Singing "Hallelujah" so loud
No, we never could have dreamt that
It was all about to go bad
But we'll always have the soundtrack

If I'd call you now, would you pick it up?
Am I crazy for even thinkin' of how we were back then?
Nothin' more than kids in our glory years

Always have the soundtrack
Of us fallin' into love, yeah
And I know that we can't go back
But we'll always have the soundtrack
Singing "Hallelujah" so loud
No, we never could have dreamt that
It was all about to go bad
But we'll always have the soundtrack, soundtrack, soundtrack

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh

You'll always be my soundtrack

Venus

Started out on the horizon
Then it grew to be a siren
I'm a fire and I'm coming undone
It's so beautiful, now I'm crying

Thought the love was made for someone else
But you have changed me
My body and my mind agree
That you have rearranged me

Oh, Venus
Like a supernova, I can't stop this overwhelming feeling
You got me fallin' in love and everybody here can see us
My world is upside down
Oh, Venus
You turn my heart around

I couldn't love 'til you arrived
Now I'm living with the bluer skies
I shouldn't laugh, shouldn't be surprised
It's what you do and you do it right

I thought that love was made for someone else
But you have changed me (for someone else)
My body and my mind agree
That you have rearranged me

Oh, Venus
Like a supernova, I can't stop this overwhelming feeling
Got me fallin' in love and everybody here can see us
My world is upside down
Oh, Venus
You turn my heart around

Venus, my
Venus, my
Venus, my
Venus, Venus

Now I understand (I understand)
What it is to fly
To dive in deep with someone
For more than just a night
Now I understand
What love songs really mean
Two bodies into one
Two minds into a dream

Oh, Venus
Like a supernova, I can't stop this overwhelming feeling
You got me fallin' in love and everybody here can see us
My world is upside down
Oh, Venus (mm)
You turn my heart around
Venus
Like a supernova, I can't stop this overwhelming feeling
Got me fallin' in love and everybody here can see us
My world is upside down
Oh, Venus
You turn my heart around

The Healing

The one before you wasn't careful
The one before you kicked my heart around the corner
The one before you wasn't gentle
Nobody told me love was a contact sport

So, no, it's not your fault
That I can't love you yet
But can I be with you after the healing
After the healing is done?
Can I be with you after the hurting?
After the monsters in my head are finally gone?
But can I be with you after the healing?

The time before you wasn't easy
The time before you pushed me right over the edge
And now I got some trouble sleeping
I'm kept awake by knife left in my bed

So, no, it's not your fault
That I can't love you yet
But can I be with you after the healing
After the healing is done?
Yeah, can I be with you after the hurting?
After the monsters in my head are finally gone? (Gone)
Can I be with you after the healing?

So, give me just a little time
'Cause I just gotta let me cry
This isn't your responsibility

But I wanna be with you after the healing
After the healing is done
Can I be with you after the hurting?
After the monsters in my bed are finally gone?
So, give me just a little time
'Cause I just gotta let me cry
This isn't your responsibility
Can I be with you after the healing
After the healing is done?
Can I be with you after the healing?
