Borderline (An Ode to Self Care) [feat. Q-Tip] Lyrics

We been lovers on a mission
We been lovers on a mission
(all the way)
But what's love without a mission
We been lovers on a mission
(all the way)
So let's take an intermission

You know I have the world to thank
And you know I gotta go ahead and take some time
Because the last thing that I want
Is thinking that it's time that I leave the boderline
So let's take it off tonight
Break it up tonight
Baby let's know when to let go
Know when to let go
Take it off tonight
Break it up tonight
Baby I know you're tired
Know I'm tired
Let's take it off tonight
Break it up tonight
Baby it's war outside these walls
Baby it's war outside these doors, yeah
A safe place tonight
Let's play it safe tonight
Baby I know what you're fighting for
Baby you know what I'm fighting for

You know I have the world to thank
And you know I gotta go ahead and take some time
Because the last thing I want
Is thinking that it's time that I leave the boderline

So let's take it off tonight
Break it up tonight
Baby let's know when to let go
Know when to let go, oh
Take it off tonight
Break it up tonight
Baby I know you're tired
You know I'm tired
Let's take it off tonight
Break it up tonight
Baby I've been more than a woman
We've been lovers on a mission
A safe place tonight
Let's play it safe tonight
Baby we've been lovers on a mission
(all the way)
So let's take an intermission
