Lyrics
Keep it on the down low
I keep it at a whisper
Nobody has to know
The way we're feeling
I keep it just so
We're not seen together
Now don't worry baby
They won't see us leaving
I haven't been eating
Or sleeping at all
I been trying not to
Count the days
I'm always the last one
To fall asleep around here baby
I want to feel you
In so many ways
Keep it on the down low
I keep it at a whisper
Nobody has to know
The way we're feeling
I keep it just so
We're not seen together
Now don't worry baby
They won't see us leaving
Can you keep in on the DL
I keep it undercover
Think of those late nights
When I want to lose myself
They don't have to know
That I've been waiting for you
A beautiful secret
To take away my breath
Keep it on the down low
I keep it at a whisper
Nobody has to know
The way we're feeling
I keep it just so
We're not seen together
Now don't worry baby
They won't see us leaving
Give me a reason to try
Give me a reason to lie next to you
Give you a reason to know
Give you a reason to come undone
Keep it on the down low
I keep it on the down low
