  • Hey, you there
    Can we take it to the next level, baby, do you dare?
    Don't be scared
    'Cause if you can say the words, I don't know why I should care

    'Cause here I am, I'm givin' all I can
    But all you ever do is mess it up
    Yeah, I'm right here, I'm tryin' to make it clear
    That getting half of you just ain't enough

    I'm not going to wait until you're done
    Pretending you don't need anyone
    I'm standing here naked (naked, naked)
    I'm standing here naked (naked, naked)
    I'm not gonna try 'til you decide
    You're ready to swallow all your pride
    I'm standing here naked (naked, naked)
    I'm standing here naked (naked, naked)

    Hey, get out
    I've got nothin' left to give for you give me nothin' now
    Read my mouth
    If you ever want me back, then your walls need breakin' down

    'Cause here I am, I'm givin' all I can
    But all you ever do is mess it up (all you ever do is mess it up)
    Yeah, I'm right here, I'm tryin' to make it clear
    getting half of you just ain't enough

    I'm not going to wait until you're done
    Pretending you don't need anyone
    I'm standing here naked (naked, naked)
    I'm standing here naked (naked, naked)
    I'm not gonna try 'til you decide
    You're ready to swallow all your pride
    I'm standing here naked (naked, naked)
    I'm standing here naked (naked, naked)

    I wanna give you everything
    I wanna give you everything
    I wanna give you everything
    I wanna give you everything

    I'm not going to wait until you're done
    'Cause you pretended you don't need anyone
    'Cause you see that I'm naked (naked, naked)
    Oh, you see that I'm naked (naked, naked)
    I'm not going to try 'til you decide
    You're ready to swallow all your pride
    I'm standing here naked (naked, naked)
    I'm standing here naked (I'm standing) (naked, naked)

    I'm standing
    I'm standing here Writer/s: James Arthur, Johan Carlsson, Max Martin, Savan Kotecha

  • Horatio from MelbournePlease explain.
    Set in. a film studio.
    The James Arthur show..
    A love ballad adressed to Cressida.
    Naked. because he has revealed his love
    But Cressida has held back.
    Maybe playing with him.
    The interview puts her on.the spot.
    He iis breaking down
    Cressiida sotens.
    Maybe out of pity
    She gives. Hersellf to him
    We expect themm to. make love
    Acting and performing is blurred
    She is dressed prim and proper
    The nice girl.
    Playing. With fire.
    Viewwd also by an emotional mother. Figure
    Rejoices when Cressida submits to him
    Needs a reslly good sex scene
    .Her facials are amazing
