  • How can it be? You and me
    Might be meant to be, can't unsee it
    But I don't wanna cause no scene
    I'm usually so unproblematic
    So independent
    Tell me why
    'Cause the boy is mine, mine

    Somethin' about him is made for somebody like me
    Baby, come over, come over (over)
    And God knows I'm tryin', but there's just no use in denying

    The boy is mine
    I can't wait to try him
    Le-let's get intertwined
    The stars, they aligned
    The boy is mine
    Watch me take my time
    I can't believe my mind
    The boy is divine
    Boy is mine

    Please know this ain't what I planned for
    Probably wouldn't bet a dime or my life on
    There's gotta be a reason why
    My girls, they always come through in a sticky situation
    Say, "It's fine" (it's fine)
    Happens all the time

    Somethin' about him is made for somebody like me
    Baby, come over, come over (over)
    And God knows I'm tryin', but there's just no use in denying

    The boy is mine
    I can't wait to try him
    Le-let's get intertwined
    The stars, they aligned
    The boy is mine
    Watch me take my time
    I can't believe my mind
    The boy is divine
    Boy is

    And I know it's simply meant to be
    And I, I take full accountability for all these years
    Promise you I'm not usually
    Like this, shit, it's like news to me, to me
    But I can't ignore my heart, boy (the boy is mine)

    I can't wait to try him (oh)
    Le-let's get intertwined
    The stars, they aligned
    The boy is mine
    Watch me take my time
    I can't believe my mind
    The boy is divine
    Boy is mine Writer/s: Ariana Grande, David Park, Martin Karl Sandberg, Shintaro Yasuda
