Dua Lipa - Future Nostalgia Album Lyrics

Future Nostalgia

(Future)
(Future nostalgia)
(Future nostalgia)
(Future nostalgia)

You want a timeless song, I wanna change the game
Like modern architecture, John Lautner coming your way
I know you like this beat 'cause Jeff been doing the damn thing
You wanna turn it up loud, future nostalgia is the name
(Future nostalgia)

I know you're dying trying to figure me out
My name's on the tip of your tongue, keep running your mouth
You want the recipe but can't handle my sound
My sound, my sound (future)

(Future nostalgia)
No matter what you do, I'm gonna get it without ya (hey, hey)
(Future nostalgia)
I know you ain't used to a female alpha (no way, no way)
(Future nostalgia)
No matter what you do, I'm gonna get it without ya (hey, hey)
(Future nostalgia)
I know you ain't used to a female alpha (no way, no way)
(Future nostalgia)

Can't be a Rolling Stone if you live in a glass house (future nostalgia)
You keep on talking that talk, one day you're gonna blast out
You can't be bitter if I'm out here showing my face (future nostalgia)
You want what now looks like, let me give you a taste

I know you're dying trying to figure me out
My name's on the tip of your tongue, keep running your mouth
You want the recipe but can't handle my sound
My sound, my sound (future)

(Future nostalgia)
No matter what you do, I'm gonna get it without ya (hey, hey)
(Future nostalgia)
I know you ain't used to a female alpha (no way, no way)
(Future nostalgia)
No matter what you do, I'm gonna get it without ya (hey, hey)
(Future nostalgia)
I know you ain't used to a female alpha (no way, no way)
(Future nostalgia)

You can't get with this, if you ain't built for this
You can't get with this, if you ain't built for this
I can't build you up, if you ain't tough enough
I can't teach a man how to wear his pants, haha

I know you're dying trying to figure me out
My name's on the tip of your tongue, keep running your mouth
You want the recipe but can't handle my sound (future nostalgia)
My sound, my sound (future)

I know you're dying trying to figure me out
My name's on the tip of your tongue, keep running your mouth
You want the recipe but can't handle my sound
My sound, my sound (future)

(Future nostalgia)
(Future nostalgia)
(Future nostalgia)
My sound, my sound, my sound (future)
(Future nostalgia)

Don't Start Now

If you don't wanna see me

Did a full 180, crazy
Thinking 'bout the way I was
Did the heartbreak change me? Maybe
But look at where I ended up
I'm all good already
So moved on, it's scary
I'm not where you left me at all, so

If you don't wanna see me dancing with somebody
If you wanna believe that anything could stop me

Don't show up, don't come out
Don't start caring about me now
Walk away, you know how
Don't start caring about me now

Aren't you the guy who tried to
Hurt me with the word "goodbye"?
Though it took some time to survive you
I'm better on the other side
I'm all good already
So moved on, it's scary
I'm not where you left me at all, so

If you don't wanna see me dancing with somebody
If you wanna believe that anything could stop me

(Don't, don't, don't)
Don't show up, don't come out
Don't start caring about me now
Walk away, you know how
Don't start caring about me now ('bout me now, 'bout me)

Oh, oh
Don't come out, out, out
Don't show up, up, up
Don't start now (oh)
Oh, oh
Don't come out, out
I'm not where you left me at all, so

If you don't wanna see me dancing with somebody
If you wanna believe that anything could stop me

Don't show up (don't show up), don't come out (don't come out)
Don't start caring about me now ('bout me now)
Walk away (walk away), you know how (you know how)
Don't start caring about me now (so)

Oh, oh
Don't come out, out, out
Don't show up, up, up
Walk away, walk away (so)
Oh, oh
Don't come out, out, out
Don't show up, up, up
Walk away, walk away, oh

Cool

Guess I never had a love like this (ah-ha)
Hit me harder than I ever expected (uh-uh)
We've been up all goddamn night, all night, all night (ah-ha)
Keep it going 'til we see the sunlight

When the color of the sky looking nice and nice
You know, you know, you know
Baby, I can see us in the real life
You know, you know, you got

Got me losin' all my cool
'Cause I'm burnin' up on you
In control of what I do
And I love the way you move
We get the heat and the thrill
'Cause you're more than any pill
Never runnin' out of juice
When it's only me and you

You got me, you got me losin' all my cool
I guess we're ready for the summer

I like us better when we're intertwined (ah-ha)
The way you touch me got me losing my senses (hey)
Put your love with your lips on mine, on mine, on mine (ah-ha)
You got me workin' up an appetite, 'tite

When the color of the sky looking nice and nice
You know, you know, you know
Baby, I can see us in the real life
You know, you know, you got

Got me losin' all my cool
'Cause I'm burnin' up on you
In control of what I do
And I love the way you move
We get the heat and the thrill

Never runnin' out of juice
When it's only me and you

You got me, you got me losin' all my cool
I guess we're ready for the summer
You got me, you got me losin' all my cool
I guess we're ready for the summer (ooh, ooh)

Skin-tight
I'll show you heaven there's nothing better
I'll give it to you all night
You know, you know, you know
Got me losing all my cool
And you like the way I move
In control of what I do
And my love makes you brand new

Got me losin' all my cool

In control of what I do
And I love the way you move
We get the heat and the thrill
'Cause you're more than any pill
Never runnin' out of juice
When it's only me and you
When it's only me and you

(Hey)
I guess we're ready for the summer
You got me, you got me losing all my cool (hey)
I guess we're ready for the summer
You got me, you got me losing all my cool

Physical

Common love isn't for us
We created something phenomenal
Don't you agree?
Don't you agree?
You got me feeling diamond rich
Nothing on this planet compares to it
Don't you agree?
Don't you agree?

Who needs to go to sleep, when I got you next to me?

All night I'll riot with you
I know you got my back and you know I got you
So come on, come on, come on
Let's get physical
Lights out and follow the noise
Baby keep on dancing like you ain't got a choice
So come on, come on, come on
Let's get physical

Adrenaline keeps on rushing in
Love the simulation we're dreaming in
Don't you agree?
Don't you agree?
I don't wanna live another life
'Cause this one's pretty nice
Living it up

Who needs to go to sleep, when I got you next to me?

All night I'll riot with you
I know you got my back and you know I got you
So come on, come on, come on
Let's get physical
Lights out and follow the noise
Baby keep on dancing like you ain't got a choice
So come on, come on, come on
Let's get physical

Hold on just a little tighter
Come on
Hold on, tell me if you're ready
Come on
Baby keep on dancing
Let's get physical
Hold on just a little tighter
Come on
Hold on, tell me if you're ready
Come on
Baby keep on dancing
Let's get physical

All night I'll riot with you
I know you got my back and you know I got you
So come on, come on, come on
Let's get physical
Lights out and follow the noise
Baby keep on dancing like you ain't got a choice
So come on, come on, come on
Let's get physical

Let's get physical
Physical
Let's get physical
Come on, physical

Levitating

If you wanna run away with me, I know a galaxy
And I could take you for a ride
I had a premonition that we fell into a rhythm
Where the music don't stop for life
Glitter in the sky, glitter in my eye
Shining just the way I like
If you feeling like you need a little bit of company
You met me at the perfect time

You want me, I want you, baby
My sugar boo, I'm levitating
The milky way, we're renegading
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I got you, moonlight
You're my starlight
I need you all night
Come on, dance with me
I'm levitating
You, moonlight
You're my starlight
I need you all night
Come on, dance with me
I'm levitating

I believe that you're for me, I feel it in our energy
I see us written in the stars
We can go wherever, so let's do it now or never
Baby, nothing's ever ever too far
Glitter in the sky, glitter in our eyes
Shining just the way we are
I feel like we're forever every time we get together
But whatever, let's get lost on Mars

You want me, I want you, baby
My sugar boo, I'm levitating
The milky way, we're renegading
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I got you, moonlight
You're my starlight
I need you all night
Come on, dance with me
I'm levitating
You, moonlight
You're my starlight
I need you all night
Come on, dance with me
I'm levitating

You can fly away with me tonight
You can fly away with me tonight
Baby, let me take you for a ride
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm levitating (woo)
You can fly away with me tonight
You can fly away with me tonight
Baby let me take you for a ride
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

My love is like a rocket, watch it blast-off
And I'm feeling so electric, dance my ass off
And even if I wanted to, I can't stop
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Pretty Please

Somewhere in the middle
I think I lied a little
I, I said if we took it there, I wasn't gonna change
But that went out the window, yeah

I know that I seem a little stressed out
But you're here now, and you're turning me on
I wanna feel a different kind of tension
Yeah, you guessed it, the kind that's fun
I hate it when you leave me unattended
'Cause I miss ya, and I need your love
But my mind is running wild, could you help me slow it down?

Put my mind at ease
Pretty please
I need your hands on me
Sweet relief
Pretty please

Exactly where I want me, yeah
Underneath your body, yeah
If we take it further, I swear I ain't gonna break
So baby, come try me, baby, come find me
Baby, don't wind me up

I know that I seem a little stressed out
But you're here now, and you're turning me on
I wanna feel a different kind of tension
Yeah, you guessed it, the kind that's fun
I hate it when you leave me unattended
'Cause I miss ya, and I need your love
But my mind is running wild, could you help me slow it down?

Put my mind at ease
Pretty please
I need your hands on me
Sweet relief
Pretty
Put my mind at ease
Trickle down my spine
Boy, you look so pretty please
Every single night
I need your hands on me
When your kiss is kind
Oh, you give me sweet relief
Make me feel so pretty
Would you help me out please?

(Pretty)

I hate it when you leave me unattended
'Cause I miss ya, and I need your love
But my mind is running wild, could you help me slow it down?

Every single night
I need your hands on me
When your kiss is kind
Oh, you give me sweet relief
Make me feel so pretty
Would you help me out please?

Love Again

I never thought that I would find a way out
I never thought I hear my heart beat so loud
I can't believe there's something left in my chest anymore
But god damn you got me in love again
I used to think that I was made out of stone
I used to spend so many nights on my own
I never knew I had it in me to dance anymore
But god damn you got me in love again

Show me whatever's right here baby
Touch me so I know I'm not crazy

Never have I ever met somebody like you
Used to be afraid of love and what it might do

But god damn you got me in love again
you got me in love again
you got me in love again
you got me in love again
Again

So many nights my tears fell harder than rain
Scared I would take my broken heart to the grave
I'd rather die than have to live in a storm like before
But god damn you got me in love again

Show me whatever's right here baby
Touch me so I know I'm not crazy
Never have I ever met somebody like you
Used to be afraid of love and what it might do

But god damn you got me in love again
you got me in love again
you got me in love again
you got me in love again
Again

I can't believe I can't believe I finally find someone
I sing my ? and this belief cause you're the one that I want
I can't believe I can't believe I'm not afraid anymore
But god damn you got me in love again

I never thought that I would find a way out
I never thought I hear my heart beat so loud
I can't believe there's something left in my chest anymore
But god damn you got me in love again

I can't believe I can't believe I finally find someone
I sing my ? and this belief cause you're the one that I want
I can't believe there's something left inside my chest anymore

But god damn you got me in love again
you got me in love again
you got me in love again
you got me in love again
Again

Break My Heart

I've always been the one to say the first goodbye
Had to love and lose a hundred million times
Had to get it wrong to know just what I like
Now I'm fallin'

You say my name like I have never heard before
I'm indecisive but this time I know for sure
I hope I'm not the only one that feels it all
Are you fallin'?

Center of attention
You know you can get whatever you want from me
Whenever you want it, baby
It's you in my reflection
Now I'm afraid of all the things you could do to me
If I would've known it, baby

I would've stayed at home, 'cause I was doin' better alone
But when you said, "Hello", I knew that was the end of it all
I should've stayed at home, 'cause now there ain't no letting you go
Am I falling in love with the one that could break my heart?
Oh no, I was doin' better alone
But when you said, "Hello", I knew that was the end of it all
I should've stayed at home, 'cause now there ain't no letting you go
Am I falling in love with the one that could break my heart?

I wonder when you go, if I stay on your mind
Two could play that game, but you win me every time
Everyone before you was a waste of time
Yeah, you got me

Center of attention
You know you can get whatever you want from me
Whenever you want it, baby
It's you in my reflection
Now I'm afraid of all the things you could do to me
If I would've known it, baby

I would've stayed at home, 'cause I was doin' better alone
But when you said, "Hello", I knew that was the end of it all
I should've stayed at home, 'cause now there ain't no letting you go
Am I falling in love with the one that could break my heart?
Oh no, I was doin' better alone
But when you said, "Hello", I knew that was the end of it all
I should've stayed at home, 'cause now there ain't no letting you go
Am I falling in love with the one that could break my heart?

Ooh, break my heart
Ooh, break my heart
Ooh
Am I falling in love with the one that could break my heart?

I would've stayed at home, 'cause I was doin' better alone
But when you said, "Hello", I knew that was the end of it all
I should've stayed at home, 'cause now there ain't no letting you go
Am I falling in love with the one that could break my heart?
Oh no, I was doin' better alone
But when you said, "Hello", I knew that was the end of it all
I should've stayed at home, 'cause now there ain't no letting you go
Am I falling in love with the one that could break my heart?

Good in Bed

(Hey)
Yeah, let's get to the point here
You love to disappoint me, don't ya?
You tell me what I want but ain't no follow through
You don't follow through, no
But if you only knew me
The way you know my body, baby
Then I think maybe we could probably see this through
We could make it through, but

I've been thinkin' it'd be better
If we didn't know each other
Then you go and make me feel okay
Got me thinkin' it'd be better
If we didn't stay together
Then you put your hands upon my waist

I know it's really bad, bad, bad, bad, bad
Messin' with my head, head, head, head, head
We drive each other mad, mad, mad, mad, mad
But baby, that's what makes us good in bed
Please
Come take it out on me, me, me, me, me
I know it's really bad, bad, bad, bad
But baby, that's what makes us good in bed
It's bad
We drive each other mad
It might be kinda sad
But I think that's what makes us good in bed

I dedicate this verse to
All that good pipe in the moonlight
And the long nights
Where we did everything but talk it through
That's what we do, yeah
You always let me down, boy
But when you're going down I get so up
Don't know if I could find someone who do me like you do

I've been thinkin' it'd be better
If we didn't know each other
Then you go and make me feel okay
Got me thinkin' it'd be better
If we didn't stay together
Then you put your hands upon my waist

I know it's really bad, bad, bad, bad, bad
Messin' with my head, head, head, head, head
We drive each other mad, mad, mad, mad, mad
But baby, that's what makes us good in bed
Please
Come take it out on me, me, me, me, me
I know it's really bad, bad, bad, bad
But baby, that's what makes us good in bed
It's bad
We drive each other mad
It might be kinda sad
But I think that's what makes us good in bed
It's bad
We drive each other mad
It might be kinda sad
But I think that's what makes us good in bed

(Ah)
Yeah, we don't know how to talk
(Mm)
But damn, we know how to f*ck

I know it's really bad, bad, bad, bad, bad
Messin' with my head, head, head, head, head
We drive each other mad, mad, mad, mad, mad
But baby, that's what makes us good in bed
Please
Come take it out on me, me, me, me, me
I know it's really bad, bad, bad, bad
But baby, that's what makes us good in bed
It's bad
We drive each other mad
It might be kinda sad
But I think that's what makes us good in bed
It's bad
We drive each other mad
It might be kinda sad
But I think that's what makes us good in bed

Boys Will Be Boys

It's second nature to walk home before the sun goes down
And put your keys between your knuckles when there's boys around
Isn't it funny how we laugh it off to hide our fear
When there's nothin' funny here
Sick intuition that they taught us so we won't freak out
We hide our figures, doin' anythin' to shut their mouths
We smile away to ease the tension so it don't go south
But there's nothin' funny now

When will we stop sayin' things
'Cause they're all listening
No, the kids ain't alright
Oh, and they do what they see
'Cause it's all on TV
Oh, the kids ain't alright

Boys will be, boys will be
Boys will be, boys will be boys
But girls will be women
Boys will be, boys will be
Boys will be, boys will be boys
But girls will be women

I'm sure if there's somethin' that I can't find the words to say
I know that there will be a man around to save the day
And that was sarcasm, in case you needed it mansplained
I should've stuck to ballet

When will we stop sayin' things
'Cause they're all listening
No, the kids ain't alright
Oh, and they do what they see
'Cause it's all on TV
Oh, the kids ain't alright

Boys will be, boys will be
Boys will be, boys will be boys
But girls will be women
Boys will be, boys will be
Boys will be, boys will be boys
But girls will be women

If you're offended by this song
You're clearly doin' somethin' wrong
If you're offended by this song
Then you're probably sayin'

Boys will be, boys will be
Boys will be, boys will be boys
But girls will be women

When will we stop sayin' things
'Cause they're all listening
No, the kids ain't alright
Oh, and they do what they see
'Cause it's all on TV
Oh, the kids ain't alright

Boys will be, boys will be
Boys will be, boys will be boys
But girls will be women
Boys will be, boys will be
Boys will be, boys will be boys
But girls will be women
