Training season lyrics by Dua Lipa

Are you someone that I can give my heart to?

Or just the poison that I’m drawn to

It can be hard to tell the difference late at night

But if you really wanna go there

You should know I

Need someone to hold me close

Deeper than I’ve ever known

Whose love feels like a rodeo

Knows just how to take control

When I’m vulnerable

He’s straight talking to my soul

Conversation overload

Got me feeling vertigo

Are you someone who can go there?

‘Cause I don’t wanna have to show anymore

‘Cause, baby, if you’rе good then let me know ya

‘Cause training season’s over

Need someone to hold me close

Deeper than I’ve never known

Whose love feels like a rodeo

Knows just how to take control

When I’m vulnerable

He’s straight talking to my soul

Conversation overload

‘Cause training season’s over

Training season’s over

Who understands I

Need someone to hold me close?

Deeper than I’ve never known

Whose love feels like a rodeo

Knows just how to take control

When I’m vulnerable

He’s straight talking to my soul

Conversation overload

Got me feeling vertigo (Vertigo)
