Lagu itu merupakan singel lanjutan dari lagu berjudul "Houdini" yang dirilis pada 2023, dan juga sama-sama masuk dalam album studio ketiga Dua Lipa "Radical Optimism" yang meluncur pada 3 Mei 2024.
Lagu "Training Season" berkisah tentang seorang wanita yang menolak menjalin ulang asmara yang penuh tantangan bersama pria yang baru, setelah pengalaman dengan pria yang tidak menyenangkan di masa lalu telah berakhir.
Lipa menulis lagu "Training Season" dan mengembangkannya bersama penulis lagu Inggris asal Norwegia Caroline Ailin, musisi Kanada Tobias Jesso Jr., serta produser dan komposer musik Inggris Danny L Harle.
Lirik lagu "Training Season" sebagai berikut:
Are you someone that I can give my heart to?
Or just the poison that I’m drawn to?
It can be hard to tell the difference late at night.
Play fair, is that a compass in your nature?
Or are you tricky 'cause I've been there
And baby I don’t need to learn that lesson twice.
You should know I
Need someone to hold me close
Deeper than I’ve ever known
Whose love feels like a rodeo
Knows just how to take control
When I’m vulnerable
He’s straight talking to my soul
Conversation overload, got me feeling vertigo
Are you somebody who can go there?
’Cause I don’t wanna have to show ya
If that ain’t you then let me know, yeah
’Cause training season’s over
I try, to see my lovers in a good light
Don’t wanna do it just to be nice
Don’t wanna have to teach you how to love me right
I hope, it hits me like an arrow
Is it too much to ask for?
Who understands I
Need someone to hold me close
Deeper than I’ve ever known
Whose love feels like a rodeo
Knows just how to take control
When I’m vulnerable
He’s straight talking to my soul
Conversation overload, got me feeling vertigo
Are you somebody who can go there?
’Cause I don’t wanna have to show ya
If that ain’t you then let me know, yeah
’Cause training season’s over
Can you compete
Now is your time
Run when you hear that whistle blow
Are you on my team
Or stuck on the sidelines
Waiting for someone to tell you to go?
for someone to tell you to go
You should know I
Need someone to hold me close deeper than I’ve ever known
Whose love feels like a rodeo
Knows just how to take control
When I’m vulnerable
He’s straight talking to my soul
Conversation overload
'Cause training season’s over
Training season’s over
