Lyrics
[Intro Rihanna]
Mmm yeah
Midnight confessions in the moonlight
Tell me what you feel tonight
[Verse 1 Rihanna]
Boy, you say you love me when the lights go low
But when the sun comes up, your feelings never show
You pull me in so close, then push me far away
You make it hard to leave, but harder still to stay
I feel your heartbeat changin’ pace
Like you hide something in your face
But when you kiss me, I forget
All the lies, all the regrets
[Pre-Chorus Rihanna]
Say my name like you mean it
Touch my soul when you feel it
Don’t play games just to keep it
Baby, love me don’t leave it
[Chorus Rihanna]
These midnight confessions
Got me drownin’ in your tension
You’re my pain and my obsession
Baby, give me your affection
Midnight confessions
You’re my curse and my blessing
Hold me close, no second guessin’
Stay with me no more suppressin’
[Verse 2 Drake] (melodic, emotional, toxic)
Ayy
You know the way you look at me could start a war
We say we done, but then you end up at my door
I’ve been tryna keep my heart off of the floor
But every time you leave, you come back wantin’ more
I know I messed up, yeah, I did my share
But you the only one who ever really cared
You the one I see in dreams when I sleep late
Every time we separate, it’s heartbreak
You say I’m cold, but girl, I’m guarded
You say “I love you, I get started
Nobody got me like you got me
Nobody touches me like Rih, not even probably
Drake ad-lib:
(Yeah you know it’s true, though)
[Pre-Chorus Drake + Rihanna harmonies]
You say my name, I feel the fire
You pull me close, take me higher
Girl, you the one thing I desire
Even when love gets tired
[Chorus Rihanna]
These midnight confessions
Got me drownin’ in your tension
You’re my pain and my obsession
Baby, give me your affection
Midnight confessions
You’re my curse and my blessing
Hold me close, no second guessin’
Stay with me no more suppressin’
[Verse 3 Lil Baby] (melodic trap, fast with emotions)
Yeah look
I’ve been tryna keep my distance but you pull me right back
You the type to keep me focused when I fall off track
You a prize I never earned, but I wanna keep
You the reason why I’m losin’ every night of sleep
I ain’t perfect, yeah, I’m learnin’ how to treat you right
I’ll protect you if it ever comes down to a fight
Baby, trust methrough the pain, through the madness
You the only one who ever balanced out my sadness
I don’t wanna lose you, not for real
You a wound I wanna heal
Every time you touch me, girl, I feel
Something deeper, something real
[Bridge Rihanna + Drake + Lil Baby]
Rihanna:
Hold me, baby, don’t let go
Tell me everything you know
Drake:
(You know I only want you, yeah)
I need your light inside the cold
You’re the story I never told
Lil Baby:
Girl, you got my heart exposed
You the only path I chose
[Verse 4 Drake & Rihanna duet]
Rihanna:
You break me
Drake:
But I build you back
Rihanna:
You leave me
Drake:
But I bring you back
Both:
We toxic, but we both attract
We love hard, but we fade to black
[Final Chorus Rihanna + Drake + Lil Baby]
Rihanna:
These midnight confessions
Got me drownin’ in your tension
Drake:
Girl, you know you my obsession
Lil Baby:
Ain’t no way I’m second guessin’
All:
Midnight confessions
You’re my curse and my blessing
Hold me close, no more repressin’
Stay with me no more confessin’
[Outro Rihanna]
Stay
Just stay with me tonight
In these midnight lights
Don’t fade from sight
