B. The 9 Lyrics song of Ariana Grande

"Tattooed Heart"

You don't need a lot of money

Honey you don't have to play no games All I need is all your loving

To get the blood rushing through my veins

I wanna say we're going steady Like it's 1954,

No, it doesn't have to be forever

Just as long as I'm the name on your tattooed heart

(tattooed heart) (tattooed heart) (tattooed heart) (tattooed heart) (tattooed heart) (tattooed heart)

You don't need to worry about making me crazy 'Cause I'm way past that

And so just call me, if you want me

'Cause you got me, and I'll show you how much I wanna be on your tattooed heart

(tattooed heart) (tattooed heart) (tattooed heart) (tattooed heart) (tattooed heart) (tattooed heart)

Wrap me in your jacket, my baby And lay me in your bed

And kiss me underneath the moonlight

Darling let me trace the lines on your tattooed heart

(3)

(tattooed heart) (tattooed heart)

Dangerous Woman Don't need permission

Made my decision to test my limits Cause it's my business, God as my witness Start what I finished

Don't need no hold up

Taking control of this kind of moment I'm locked and loaded

Completely focused, my mind is open

[Pre-Chorus]

All that you got, skin to skin, oh my God Don't ya stop, boy

[Chorus]

Somethin' 'bout you makes me feel like a dangerous woman Somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout you Makes me wanna do things that I shouldn't

Somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout

[Verse 2]

Nothing to prove and I'm bulletproof and Know what I'm doing

The way we're movin' like introducing Us to a new thing

I wanna savor, save it for later The taste of flavor, cause I'm a taker Cause I'm a giver, it's only nature I live for danger

[Pre-Chorus]

All that you got, skin to skin, oh my God Don't ya stop, boy

[Chorus]

Somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout you

[Refrain]

Moonlight

The sun is setting in your eye, here by my side

And the movie is playing, but we won't be watching tonight Every look (every look)

Every touch (every touch)

Makes me wanna give you my heart I be crushin' on you, baby

Stay right where you are 'cause

I never knew

I never knew you could hold moonlight in your hands Till the night I held you, you

In the moonlight, moonlight

I kiss his fingertips

Have a wish that he's all mine

He's giving me Elvis with some James Dean in his eyes Puts his lips on my neck

Makes me wanna give up my body I've been fallin' for you baby And I can't just stop, 'cause

I never knew

I never knew you could hold moonlight in your hands Till the night I held you, you

In the moonlight, moonlight Baby, I've been fallin'

Oh, woah, oh, woah, Baby, baby

(Baby I) oh, baby, oh, baby, my baby (Baby I) oh, baby, baby I

(Baby I) all I'm tryna say is you're my everything, baby But every time I try to say it

Words, they only complicate it Baby, baby (oh, whoa, oh, whoa)

Baby, I'm so down for you

No matter what you do (real talk), I'll be around (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,)

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) Oh, baby

Words, they only complicate it Baby, baby (oh, whoa, oh, whoa) Baby, baby

Straight up you got me All in, how could I not be,

If it's even possible, I love you more Than the word love can say it (say it) It's better not explaining

That's why I keep saying...

Words, they only complicate it Baby, baby (oh, whoa, oh, whoa) Baby, baby

Words, they only complicate it Every time I try to say it Words, they only complicate it Every time I try to say it Words, they only complicate it Baby, baby (oh, whoa, oh, whoa) Baby, baby

Emotions

Mhmm...

You've got me feeling emotions Deeper than I've ever dreamed of You've got me feeling emotions Higher than the heavens above

I feel good, I feel nice

I've never been so... Satisfied I'm in love, I'm alive

Intoxicated, flying high

It feels like a dream

When you touch me tenderly I don't know if you're for real but I like the way you feel Inside...

(9)

You are the first thing in my mind And in the middle of the night I feel your heartbeat next to mine

It feels like a dream

When you love me tenderly I don't know if you're for real but I like the way you feel Inside

You've got me feeling emotions Deeper than I've ever dreamed of Oh baby,

You've got me feeling emotions Higher than the heavens above

You know the way To make me lose control

When you're looking into my eyes You make me feel so... Highhhh

Alright

Ohhh, you've got me feeling emotions Deeper than I've ever dreamed of You've got me feeling emotions Higher than the heavens above

Ohh you've got me feeling emotions Ohh you've got me feeling emotions You..

You've got me feeling higher

Put Your hearts Up

Let me see you put your hearts up, yeah Let me see you put your hearts up, yeah

If we give a little love, maybe we can change the world (change the world)

You think you're so small Like you're itty bitty.

Just one match in the lights of the city Walking by strangers on the side of the street Like a quarter in a cup'll get 'em up on their feet, like You think you're never gonna make your mark Sit back and watch the world while it falls apart, like Out of sight, out of mind, like, like

(10)

Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah Hey yeah yeah

If we give a little love

Maybe we can change the world (change the world) I said

Sing it if you're with me

All you boys and all you girls (all you girls)

If we give a little love maybe we can change the world (change the world)

Wish in a well, shooting star in the sky We can do anything if we try

Can't resurrect Gandhi, resurrect king But if we put our heads together We can do anything like

You don't have to be a billionaire

You don't have to have much to show how much you care Like give a wink, give a kiss

Like give a little happiness Like like like

Sing it if you're with me All you boys and all you girls

If we give a little love maybe we can change the world (change the world)

Don't let em bring you down now, down now Don't let em bring you down now, down now Ain't got nothing but love now, love now Ain't got nothing but love now, love now Don't let em bring you down now, down now Don't let em bring you down now, down now Ain't got nothing but love now, love now Ain't got nothing but love now, love now!
