"**Love Galore (Alt Version)**" is the fifteenth track and the first bonus track on the deluxe edition of SZA's debut album, *Ctrl*. It was released on June 9, 2022 through Top Dawg and RCA. The song features two new verses from SZA.

## Background

SZA teased the first verse in an Instagram video of her dancing on a tour bus with the song playing in the background.

She captioned the post:

> "**lol ackin a damn foo to the verse that never was 😂 #ineedachickentender**"

It’s possible that this verse was originally on the song in place of Travis Scott’s verse.

SZA performed the verse on *Saturday Night Live* on December 9, 2017. As part of the fifth year anniversary celebration of *Ctrl*, the song was officially released as track fifteen on the deluxe version.

The demo version of the song later leaked on September 29, 2018. ( listen)

## Lyrics

**[Intro: Travis Scott]**

I need, I need

I need, I need

I need, I need

I need, I need

I need, I need

**[Chorus: SZA]**

Love, love, love, love

Long as we got

Love, love, love

Long as we got

**[Verse 1: SZA & Travis Scott]**

Done with these n\*ggas, I don't love these n\*ggas

I dust off these n\*ggas, do it for fun

Don't take it personal

Personally, I'm surprised you called me after the things I said

Skrrt-skrrt on n\*ggas (Yeah), skrrt up on n\*ggas (True)

Skrrt down, you actin' like me

Actin' like we wasn't more than a summer fling

I said farewell, you took it well (True)

Promise I won't cry over spilled milk (Ooh, no, I won't)

Give me a paper towel, give me another Valium

Give me another hour or two, hour with you

Why you bother me when you know you don't want me (Yeah)

Why you bother me when you know you got a woman? (No; yeah)

Why you hit me when you know you know better? (You know you better not hit on me)

Know you know better

Know your crew better than you do (Know better)

Call me, lookin' for ya (Yeah), I be lookin' for ya (Yeah)

Got me lookin' forward to weekends

With you, baby, with you, baby

With you, baby (True), with you

We do whatever we want, go wherever we want

Love however we want, it don't matter (True)

You do whatever I want, get whatever I want

Get whatever I need, it's about

**[Chorus: SZA]**

Love, love, love, love

Long as we got

Love, love, love

Long as we got

**[Verse 2: SZA & Travis Scott]**

Should have never gave you my number, I did it with you

Should have never let you hit it, I split it with you

I regret it, you gots a fetish

You gots a problem, now it's a problem, oh, no

Skrrt-skrrt on bitches (Yeah)

I don't know these bitches (Yeah)

Dig dirt on bitches, do it for fun

Don't take it personal, baby

Love on my ladies, luh-love to my ladies, uh (True)

Dated a few (Straight up)

**[Verse 3: SZA & Travis Scott]**

Give good, but you lie hard and you love 'em

But you stay hard and I love that

So I let you hang it for a bit

Kick it with your friends, get your ego tight

Oh, you faded? Good

Freaky for the night

Shit, it all depend on you

It's been a minute since I wiled out, feelin' wide open (Yeah)

Like why? Why give a bum n\*gga like three minutes? (True)

Six figures, my name on it

Hide now 'cause you came on it

Hype off a hundred-eighty seconds

That's three minutes, n\*gga, pipe down

I been looking good, I been feeling nice

Working on my aura (True), cleaning up

Working overtime, you been getting boring so

Skrrt-skrrt, give me room, room

You playin' games and you cancel

Gang-gang and you ain't so

Phone number don't change though

**[Chorus: SZA]**

Love, love, love, love

Long as we got

Love, love, love

Long as we got

**[Outro: SZA]**

(Ooh)

I came to your city lookin' for lovin' 'n' licky

'Cause you promised to put it down

All up in your city lookin' for you

Searchin' for you like love

Only thing keepin' me from droppin' you right now

Right now (Love)

Only thing keepin' me by your side (Keep)

Only thing keepin' me by your side now
