Toosii – Love is… Lyrics

In “Love is…,” Toosii displays his vulnerable side as he laments about a failed relationship.

The song employs a piano-sampled beat to establish a sorrowful ambiance that provides insight into Toosii’s sentiments. He utilizes rhetorical inquiries while contemplating suicide in the song’s Post-Chorus even though that is not what his significant other would’ve wanted. The gloomy atmosphere of the song shows a despondent and deceived Toosii who is unwilling to find love again.

The song could have a connection to his 2022 single “Keeper.” The song is about establishing a connection with the girl and wanting to spend the rest of their lives together, as their relationship, later on, appears to have gone awry in his recent song.

In the Noratchetss-directed video, Toosii reminisces about his significant other’s features and dwells on a past relationship while sitting in a dark room.

Toosii first previewed the song on TikTok. The track received numerous plays on Tiktok due to Toosii’s voice that flowed with nature and the composition of the track. It gained multiple plays on Tiktok as fans demanded its release.

Love is… Lyrics by Toosii

[Intro: Julia Michaels & Toosii]
Tattoos on my arm (Bossman, you went crazy on this one)
Still scared of forever
Keep my ex’s letters (Yo Sam, this shit heat)
In the third drawer of my dresser
First one hit me hard (Damn, Dawson)
Second was a feather
Playing operation
Tryna put me back together
Closed off and exposed
Salty and I’m seared
Naked in my clothes, yeah
Love is weird
Don’t know how I wound up here
Yeah (Love is weird)

[Chorus: Toosii & Julia Michaels]
Leave a picture on the dresser
I knew you wasn’t ready when I met ya (It shows up and disappears)
You say you gon’ leave, but I won’t sweat ya (Love is strange for some)
My mind been made up, plenty times I swear, I could’ve gave up (It ranges from making love to tears)
Plenty times, inside I’m hurt, but play tough (Now we’re here, love is weird)
Everytime you give up on me, I be callin’ back like we done made up
I just wanna meet whoever made love, ’cause it hurt (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
And it’s weird (Love is weird
[Post-Chorus: Toosii]
Yeah, baby, I need you to be here, be my friend
Hold my hand (Yeah)
Will you forgive all my sins?
I’ll probably never fall in love again
I sat in that tub again
I had thoughts to slit my wrist, but then, I knew that you’d be pissed
I didn’t, what’s the point of me livin’ if this the way that I’ll be feelin’?
Why won’t you stay? I just don’t get it

[Verse: Toosii]
Cryin’ to nobody else
I ain’t got nobody help
I feel like I’m by myself
Freeze my heart, it’s gon’ melt
All the things that I been through, this probably the worst I felt
You don’t give a damn, I speak my peace and you just say, “Oh, well”
Yeah, stay on the other side of the fence
I done noticed what’s for you is for you, what’s meant is meant
I done did a lot for us than just make love
Then, it’s like we break up, see, you like to take stuff
Take my heart and put it on the train tracks
Or take a silver bullet and just aim it where my brain at
Bleed for ya, breath for ya, here for ya, need for ya
Don’t know how you did it, never saw myself leavin’ ya
Thought you wouldn’t change, but it’s okay, I still believe in ya
Even though I can’t tell you what it was that I seen in ya
Hard times, they only get better
I had told you I won’t let up
Told you, one day I’ma rock you like my sweater
Told you one day, I would treat you way, way better than he ever did
You messed it up
I know you don’t care, but now, you out of love
Life is tough, you the one that been ’round when my life was rough
I was there, I’m the one who came around and piped you up
How I’m supposed to make you mine when you can’t make a house a home?
Baby, I thought that we was grown, some things I wish would’ve been shown
You don’t really love me, I just wish I would’ve known
It’s been easier, just tryna be alone (Yeah)
[Chorus: Toosii & Julia Michaels]
Leave a picture on the dresser
I knew you wasn’t ready when I met ya (It shows up and disappears)
You say you gon’ leave, but I won’t sweat ya (Love is strange for some)
My mind been made up, plenty times I swear, I could’ve gave up (It ranges from making love to tears)
Plenty times, inside I’m hurt, but play tough (Now we’re here, love is weird)
Everytime you give up on me, I be callin’ back like we done made up
I just wanna meet whoever made love, ’cause it hurt (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
And, it’s weird (Love is weird)

[Post-Chorus: Toosii]
Yeah, baby, I need you to be here, be my friend
Hold my hand (Yeah)
Will you forgive all my sins?
I’ll probably never fall in love again
I sat in that tub again
I had thoughts to slit my wrist, but then, I knew that you’d be pissed
I didn’t, what’s the point of me livin’ if this the way that I’ll be feelin’?
Why won’t you stay? I just don’t get it

[Outro: Julia Michaels]
Love is weird, love is weird
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Love is weird
