What Do You Mean?

in AlbumPurpose

What do you mean?

Ohh ohh ohh

When you nod your head yes

But you wanna say no

What do you mean?

Hey yeah

When you don't want me to move

But you tell me to go

What do you mean?

Ohh

What do you mean?

Said we're running out of time

What do you mean?

Ohh ohh ohh

What do you mean?

Better make up your mind

What do you mean?

You're so indecisive of what I'm saying

Trying to catch the beat, make up your heart

Don't know if you're happy or complaining

Don't want for us to end

Where do I start

First you wanna go to the left and you want to turn right

Wanna argue all day, make love all night

First you up then you're down and then between

Ohh I really want to know...

What do you mean?

Ohh ohh ohh

When you nod your head yes

But you wanna say no

What do you mean?

Hey yeah

When you don't want me to move

But you tell me to go

What do you mean?

Ohh

What do you mean?

Said we're running out of time

What do you mean?

Ohh ohh ohh

What do you mean?

Better make up your mind

What do you mean?

You're overprotective when I'm leaving

Trying to compromise but I can't win

You wanna make a point but you keep preaching

You had me from the start, won't let this end

First you wanna go to the left then you want to turn right

Wanna argue all day, make love all night

First you're up then you're down and then between

Ohh I really wanna know...

What do you mean?

Ohh ohh ohh

When you nod your head yes

But you wanna say no

What do you mean?

Hey yeah

When you don't want me to move

But you tell me to go

What do you mean?

I want to know...

Oh

What do you mean?

Ohhh

Said we're running out of time

What do you mean?

(Oh baby)

Ohh ohh ohh

What do you mean?

Better make up your mind

What do you mean?

Ohh ohh ohh

(This is ours baby, yeah)

When you nod your head yes

But you wanna say no

What do you mean?

(You're so confusing baby)

Hey yeah

When you don't want me to move

But you tell me to go

What do you mean?

(Be more straight forward)

Ohh

What do you mean?

(Give it back back back)

Said we're running out of time

What do you mean?

(Give it back back back)

Ohh ohh ohh

What do you mean?

Better make up your mind

What do you mean?
