[FULL LYRICS – ROMANIZATION & ENGLISH ONLY]
When you’re not here 911 calling
Into your heat again I’m diving
Darling you Darling you baby
Fighting round in circles where is the way out
hotter than the sun
Yeah the taste of this tequila I’m drinking now
Isn’t bitter than my heart
(If you know this)
I want to know our problem blood type or DNA
do you babe? Yeah
Been waiting for your call every night
But I can’t wait no more
Dialing you-u-u sorry darling you
You know without you I’m so lonely
Into your heat again I’m diving
Darling you Darling you baby
You know without you I’m so lonely
If you won’t be here 911 calling
Darling you Darling you baby
Darling with me under the sun
I know that you’re my one
I don’t wanna let you go
I can’t think of being alone
What am I supposed to do
You got my heart like it’s yours
Don’t wanna say goodbye
(If you know this)
I want to know our problem blood type or DNA
do you babe? Yeah
Been waiting for your call every night
But I can’t wait no more
You know without you I’m so lonely
When you’re not here 911 calling
Into your heat again I’m diving
Darling you Darling you baby
You know without you I’m so lonely
Falling to you I’m always diving
Darling you Darling you
I see you you see me
I care for you you care for me
Promise I won’t take you for granted never
I’ma treat you better (I’ma treat you better)
I’ma see you better (I’ma see you better)
Kiss me baby
Kiss me baby
You know without you I’m so lonely
You know without you I’m so lonely
If you won’t be here 911 calling
Falling to you I’m always diving
The lyrics convey a deep sense of yearning and remarkable vulnerability when separated from a loved one, equating their absence to an emergency situation. Despite the bittersweet pain of longing, the track ultimately highlights an enduring devotion and a sincere, unconditional promise to never take the relationship for granted.
