lyrics

Intro
(Instrumental)

Chorus
You’ve been poppin’ up in my mind
Doin’ overtime, on the grind
Couldn’t give it up if I tried
Got it bad for ya, bonafide

You keep me up in the dead of night
I toss and turn and this don’t seem right
But you’re not mine yet, I can’t deny
Got it bad for ya, bonafide

Verse
The daylight falls short of your smile
The flowers don’t have your grace
Lately, I’ve been reaching back to
Everything we had, do you remember that? Woah

Chorus
You’ve been poppin’ up in my mind
Doin’ overtime, on the grind
Couldn’t give it up if I tried
Got it bad for ya, bonafide

You keep me up in the dead of night
I toss and turn and this don’t seem right
But you’re not mine yet, I can’t deny
Got it bad for ya, bonafide

Verse
I cross the street hoping we’d find
Each other on the other side
Lately, I’ve been looking back to
Everything we had, Do you remember that? Woah

Chorus
You’ve been poppin’ up in my mind
Doin’ overtime, on the grind
Couldn’t give it up if I tried
Got it bad for ya, bonafide

You keep me up in the dead of night
I toss and turn and this don’t seem right
But you’re not mine yet, I can’t deny
Got it bad for ya, bonafide

Chorus (repeated into fade out)
