Potential Lyrics by Lauv
We’ve been friends for years
And you were always here
Through my heartbreak tears
And none of them compare to you
Never told you why
Always held inside
No more tears to cry
I’m not afraid, I gotta say
Oh, damn, I think we got potential
I call it how I see it, and I see it in my mental
Like, “Damn,” I know we could be special
I’ll sell you on the vision, but this heart is not for rental
Like, “Damn,” don’t mean no disrespectful
I know you’re with somebody, but your body shouldn’t settle
Like, “Damn,” I think we got p—, I think we got p—
I think we got potential
I think we got potential, oh, woah
Had a heart attack
When I told you that
That I loved you back
You never said, but I always knew
You’ll be the one at the after-party
After the fun, you’ll admit you want me
Like, “Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I want you, ooh, ooh, ooh”
Oh, damn, I think we got potential
I call it how I see it, and I see it in my mental
Like, “Damn,” I know we could be special
I’ll sell you on the vision, but this heart is not for rental
Like, “Damn,” don’t mean no disrespectful
I know you’re with somebody, but your body shouldn’t settle
Like, “Damn,” I think we got p—, I think we got p—
I think we got potential
With a body like that, body like that
I don’t want nobody else
With a body like that, body like that
I just want you to myself
With a body like that, body like that
I don’t want nobody else
With a body like that, body like that
I just can’t keep my hands to myself
Like, “Damn,” I think we got potential
I call it how I see it, and I see it in my mental (Mental)
Like, “Damn,” I know we could be special
I’ll sell you on the vision, but this heart is not for rental
Like, “Damn,” don’t mean no disrespectful
I know you’re with somebody, but your body shouldn’t settle
Like, “Damn,” I think we got p— (I think we got p—)
I think we got p— (I think we got p—)
I think we got potential, oh, oh
I think we got p—, I think we got p—
I think we got potential
