[Verse 1]
Never stood out in the crowd the way you do
Wish I could have some more time alone with you
But the line is getting longer by the minute, by the minute
And it's filled with pretty girls
With pretty girls that never been rejected, nah
Yeah, it's filled with pretty girls
That never heard the words "I'm not interested"

[Chorus]
I act so cool, but that's not me
Still not the one you choose to see
I don't ever wanna let you go, no
Matеo, Mateo, Mateo, my love
You always look for somеthing new
I hope I get my turn with you
I don't ever wanna let you go, no
Mateo, Mateo, Mateo, my love

[Verse 2]
Never see you on your own, but you're alone
Don't know why the need to fix you turns me on
Think whoever took your heart is gone forever, is gone forever
And now all the pretty girls
Now all the pretty girls, they wanna love you, yeah
Hurting all the pretty girls
That never heard the words "It's not about you"

[Chorus]
I act so cool, but that's not me
Still not the one you choose to see
I don't ever wanna let you go, no
Mateo, Mateo, Mateo, my love
You always look for something new
I hope I get my turn with you
I don't ever wanna let you go, no
Mateo, Mateo, Mateo, my love

[Bridge]
What, what 'bout my pride?
Never been chasin', but I'm chasin' now, nah
Love, love makes you wild
Know you will be the best I ever had, nah
What, what 'bout my pride?
Never been chasin', but I'm chasin' now, nah
Love, love's gonna hurt
Yeah, I promise the world's gonna burn if you choose her

[Chorus]
I act so cool, but that's not me
Still not the one you choose to see
I don't ever wanna let you go, no
Mateo, Mateo, Mateo, my love
You always look for something new
I hope I get my turn with you
I don't ever wanna let you go, no
Mateo, Mateo, Mateo, my love

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.
