Kill The Lights
Alex Newell & Jess Glynne Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You set me free every time your hands on me
I wanna be your way to shine
I can't deny the feeling that you're giving me
You lit the spark that set a fire

Oh no, don't run away from your love
No, no, don't turn away from the heart of the groove
From the way that we move
Kill the lights, we can't lose

Kill the lights and look right at me
Close your eyes, you can see me by the way that I feel
Kill the lights and touch my body
Close your eyes, you can see me by the way that I feel
Come spin me around, let's get lost in the sound
Close your eyes, you can see me by the way that I feel
Touch my body, kill the lights tonight

Let's live our life, tomorrow doesn't always come
Don't try to hide, let's have some fun
You can't rely on anything or anyone
Who fights the love you have inside

Oh no, don't run away from your love
No, no, don't turn away from the heart of the groove
From the way that we move
Kill the lights, we can't lose

Kill the lights and look right at me
Close your eyes, you can see me by the way that I feel
Kill the lights and touch my body
Close your eyes, you can see me by the way that I feel
Come spin me around, let's get lost in the sound
Close your eyes, you can see me by the way that I feel
Touch my body, kill the lights tonight

Oh no, don't run away from your love
No, no, don't turn away from the heart of the groove
From the way that we move
Kill the lights, we can't lose

Kill the lights and look right at me
Close your eyes, you can see me by the way that I feel
Kill the lights and touch my body
Close your eyes, you can see me by the way that I feel
Come spin me around, let's get lost in the sound




Close your eyes, you can see me by the way that I feel
Touch my body, kill the lights tonight

In case anyone was confused, the original release that premiĂšred along with the Vinyl episode just had Alex Newell on vox; the soundtrack version is this one, were it's a duet with Jess Glynne.

@culturecrusher

That is SOOO funny. I'm a drummer and have been listening to this song over and over again (loved the show too) trying to nail this feel, and I never noticed that. It is kind of freaking me out now that I hear it! I need to listen better!! hahaha. What a GREAT song!!

@normvork

There will never be another genre of music like Disco. It lifts you up emotionally in a way that nothing else ever can.

@kevinhiggins5853

+normvork its called cocaine

@samjovefer

this song is the definition of late 70's dance music

@MrJesseLonge

+Samuel Vera
