"Crush (Girls Trip)" lyrics

[Zara Larsson:]
Talkin' to you gives me butterflies
Wanna text you all the time
I can't help that I feel like this
Talkin' to you, stayin' up all night
Yeah, he knows somethin' ain't right
But it's innocent 'til we kiss

In the grey zone of morality
Feelin' dangerous when you're callin' me
Somethin' 'bout the secrecy of us
Then it hits me like reality
I can't lose him to a fantasy
It ain't heartbreak, but it still hurts enough

Oh, baby, I'm crushed (Crush)
It will never be us
That's why they call it a crush (Crush)
It will never be love (Crush)

[Eli:]
Baby girl, don't act like you and me are not the same
When I heard you on a boombox and blew a kiss, 1-0-8
Always knew that I would make it, Disney Channel
Break into the building, tell 'em I'm a trans girl
Now I'm in the Sony office with a cuff around my ankle
Baby, can I sing for you like Harry Daniels?

I'm tryna get flewed out
Hashtag with my boobs out
I'm feelin' femme, red in the face, like I'm the sweetest fish on Stage Girl
What's the moves now?
Heard I'm in the news now (Who's that? She's fine)
My name's Eli and I'm about to change your life

[Zara Larsson {Eli}:]
I'm crushed (Crush)
But it will never be us (Oh)
That's why they call it a crush
{That's why they call it a crush, it's just a fragment of love}
It will never be love (It will never and not be love)
(Crush)

[Zara Larsson (Eli) {Both}:]
When all the lights go dark
And all I hear is the crush
I wanna see your face
I'm here, we're makin' it now
{This is what dreams are about}
(I gotta hear you say my name)

(Zara) Eli
Are you there?
Yes. Hello. What's wrong?
(Just—I can't see anything)
(Where are we?)
We're in the song!

[Zara Larsson {Eli}:]
Oh, baby, I'm crushed (Crush)
It will never be us (Ooh-oh)
That's why they call it a crush (Just a crush. Crush)
It will never be love (Be love, no-no-no-no, no-no-no-no, no, no)

Oh, baby, I'm crushed (Ooh-ah, no-no-no, no-no-no)
{That's why they call it a crush}
{It's just a fragment of love} (No-no-no, no-no-no)
That's why they call it a crush (Crush)
It will never be love
{You call it, I feel it, I want it, baby, let's fly back}

[Eli:]
Hey, Zara
Wanna go on a date sometime?
We could get some food

Oh, baby, I'm
Oh, baby, I'm
Oh, baby, I'm cryin'
Oh, baby, I'm crushed
I'm picturin' us
Oh, baby, I'm cryin', I'm crushed
