[Verse 1]
You made your way in as I was leavin'
You cut in line just as I was gettin' my stuff
And I couldn't decide if you were the most annoyin' human bein' I'd ever met
Or just the best thing that ever happened
Just the best thing that ever happened

[Verse 2]
You took the key out of the ignition
I could hear the rain on the windows
Right then and there I made up my mind to just go with it
Thinkin', "What's the worst thing that could happen?"
When the worst thing that could happen could be the best thing ever

[Refrain]
We're not forever, you're not the one
We're not forever, you're not the one
We're not forever, you're not the one
You and I could be the best thing ever

[Pre-Chorus]
We're not "happily ever after," we don't got what it takes
And we don't make plans 'cause we're never gonna last
We're not forever, you're not the one
You and I, we're a time—

[Chorus]
Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb
Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb
We're not forever, you're not the one
You and I, we're a timebomb

[Verse 3]
I shut the door and I don't look back
When something this good comes along
You're better off letting the first time be the last time
But really, what's the worst thing that could happen?
When the worst thing that could happen could be the best thing ever

[Refrain]
We're not forever, you're not the one
We're not forever, you're not the one
We're not forever, you're not the one
You and I could be the best thing ever

[Pre-Chorus]
We're not "happily ever after," we don't got what it takes
And we don't make plans 'cause we're never gonna last
We're not forever, you're not the one
You and I, we're a time—

[Chorus]
Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb
Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb
We're not forever, you're not the one
You and I, we're a timebomb

[Bridge]
Ooh
We could be the best thing ever
Oh, we could be
We could be the best thing ever
The best thing ever
We could be the best thing ever, ooh
Forever
We could be the best thing ever
Oh, we
We're not forever
Could be
You're not the one
The best
You and I, we're a time—

[Chorus]
Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb
Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb
We're not forever, you're not the one
You and I, we're a timebomb

Tove Lo

Ebba Tove Elsa Nilsson, professionally known as Tove Lo (pronounced Too-veh-Lu), is a Swedish singer-songwriter born and raised in Djursholm, Sweden.

She first rose to prominence for her single, “Habits (Stay High)“, which became a top ten hit in the U.S. a year after its 2013 release, a dark breakup anthem that generated such Internet buzz that it led to a deal with Universal. “Habits“ and its follow-up, “Out of Mind“, appeared on her debut EP Truth Serum, in 2014.

Later that year, her debut album, Queen of the Clouds, arrived, featuring “Habits“. The album was a Top 10 hit in Sweden and a Top 20 hit in the U.S. and U.K., and the subsequent single “Talking Body“ was a similar success.
