Lyrics: Crush (Girls Trip)

[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
