Verse 1: Mahalia
Sometimes, you love too hard 
Sometimes, you go too far 
Now I won't want you if you need me 
Real things do not come easy, no

Pre-Chorus: Mahalia
Never been your average girl 
So take time with me, take time 
Baby, talk to me with some action 
We can find a place for your passion, oh

Chorus: Mahalia
Cool down, simmer 
Cool now, please me 
Cool now, sinner 
Cool down, love 
Cool now, simmer 
Cool now, please me 
Cool now, sinner 
Cool down, love 
Cool now, simmer 
Cool now, please me 
Cool now, sinner 
Cool down, love, love

Verse 2: Mahalia
Sometimes, I want you close
Sometimes, I want my space
Just know I’m gonna call if I need you
It's not my job to please you, no

Pre-Chorus: Mahalia
Never been your average girl
So take time with me, take time
Baby, talk to me with some action
Think I got a place for your passion, oh

Chorus: Mahalia
Cool down, simmer
Cool now, please me
Cool now, sinner
Cool down, love
Cool now, simmer
Cool now, please me
Cool now, simmer, simmer
Boy, you make it too hard for me to stay here
Boy, you're making it hard for me to be your love, love
So cool now, simmer, simmer

Verse 3: Burna Boy
Baby, don’t make me tell you this
I won't waste no time, I'll be proceeding quick
The way you're moving lately got me feeling sick
Like sey you've forgotten who you're dealing with
Man, ah real bread winner, me work nonstop
You no cook no dinner when I come back
Something wrong with ya, come out from that
If me walk and leave ya, me nah come back
(Cool down, simmer)

Bridge: Mahalia
You're falling, but you don't wanna fall too hard
You’re falling, but you don’t wanna fall apart
'Cause it might break if I give you my heart
And you hold on too hard (Too hard, too hard)

Chorus: Mahalia & Burna Boy
So cool down, simmer, simmer (Simmer, simmer)
Cool down, simmer
Cool now, please me
Cool now, sinner
Cool down, love
Cool now, simmer
Cool now, please me
Cool now, simmer, simmer (Si-si-simmer)
Boy, you make it too hot for me to stay here
Boy, you’re making it hard for me to be your love, love

Outro
Simmer, simmer
Simmer, simmer
