Genius Translations
Jessie Reyez - Sola (Alone) (English Translation)
[Verse 1]
It suits you not to tell me that you want me
I’d prefer you to distance yourself
I’d prefer you to leave me alone

It suits you not to go on signing papers
Nor to turn up the volume
When I’m around you

[Pre-Chorus]
I’m not the type of woman
That your mom wants to see you with
I’m lacking in so many things
And so many others fail me
I could never please you

[Chorus]
Those girls are loyal
Those girls are saints
They’re good girls, they forgive quietly
They don’t make scenes
They ask for nothing
I couldn’t please you
I’m not that type of woman

[Verse 2]
It doesn’t suit me to go on dreaming hopeful
I’m good for nothing when I’m tied down
I’m an eagle, flying alone
I need to undress myself of your scent
This aroma consumes me
I don’t want to confuse you

[Pre-Chorus]
I’m not the type of woman
That your mom wants to see you with
I’m lacking in so many things
And so many others fail me
I could never please you

[Chorus]
Those girls are loyal
Those girls are saints
They’re good girls, they forgive quietly
They don’t make scenes
They ask for nothing
I couldn’t please you
I’m not that type of woman

[Chorus]
Those girls are loyal
Those girls are saints
They’re good girls, they forgive quietly
They don’t make scenes
They ask for nothing
I couldn’t please you
I’m not that type of woman
I’m not that type of woman
