Ed Sheeran – Don’t

By 15 avril 2025Ed Sheeran

I like them LA LA
I like them LA LA
I met this girl, late last year
She said "don't you worry if I disappear"
I told her I'm not really looking for another mistake

I called an old friend thinking that the trouble would wait

But then I jumped right in a week later, returned

I reckon she was only looking for a lover to burn

But I gave her my time, for two or three nights

Then I put it on pause until the moment was right

I went away for months until our paths crossed again

She told me "I was never looking for a friend

Maybe you can swing by my room around 10

Baby bring a lemon and a bottle of gin

We'll be in between the sheets till the late AM"

Baby if you wanted me you should've just said

She's singing I like them LA LA

Don't f-ck with my love

That heart is so cold

All over my home

I don't wanna know that babe

I like them LA LA

Don't f-ck with my love

I told her she knows

Take aim and reload

I don't wanna know that babe

I like them LA LA

And for a couple weeks I only wanna see her

We drink away the days with a takeaway pizza

Before a text message was the only way to reach her

Now she's staying at my place and loves the way I treat her

Singing out Aretha

All over the track like a feature

Never wants to sleep, I guess I don't want to either

But me and her we make money the same way,

Four cities, 2 planes the same day

And those shows have never been what it's about

Maybe we'll go together and just figure it out!!

I'd rather put on a film with you and sit on a couch

But we should get on a plane or we'll be missing it now

Wish I'd have written it down, the way that things played out

When she was kissing him, how I was confused about

Now she should figure it out, while I'm sat here

Singing I like them LA LA

Don't f-ck with my love

That heart is so cold

All over my home

I don't wanna know that babe

I like them LA LA

Don't f-ck with my love

I told that she knows

Take aim and reload

I don't wanna know that babe

I like them LA LA

(Knock knock knock) on my hotel door

I don't even know if she knows what for

She was crying on my shoulder, I already told ya

Trust and respect is what we do this for

I never intended to be next

But you didn't need to take him to bed, that's all

And I never saw him as a threat

Until you disappeared with him to have sex

Of course, it's not we were both on tour

We were staying on the same f-cking hotel floor

And I wasn't looking for a promise or commitment,

but it wasn't never just run and I thought you were different

This is not the way you realized what you wanted

It's a bit too much, too late if I'm honest

All this time god knows I'm singing

I like them LA LA

Don't f-ck with my love

That heart is so cold

All over my home

I don't wanna know that babe

I like them LA LA

Don't fuck with my love

And so that she knows

Take aim and reload

I don't wanna know that babe

I like them LA LA

Don't f-ck with my love

That heart is so cold

All over my home

I don't wanna know that babe

I like them LA LA

Don't fuck with my love

And so that she knows

Take aim and reload

I don't wanna know that babe

I like them LA LA
