Keep Calm
DVSN Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I still remember we were (slow it down)
First time we had the nerve
First time was not rehearsed
First time was almost perfect, still
There's no such thing as too far
No, no such thing as too far (I've been watchin' you all night long, babe)
Too far gone
Still know that we can work (slow it down)
Still know what you deserve
Still mad 'bout who we are
But no different than we were
But still
There's no such thing as too far
No, no such thing as too far (I've been watchin' you all night long, babe)
Too far gone

Should be here, but you ain't right now (slow it down)
Could be there, but I ain't right now
Both those things could be changed right now, and
I shouldn't be thinkin' about (I've been watchin' you all night long, babe)
What I would do if I was beside you
In a king-sized suite, layin' in those sheets
You know we'd work it out (slow it down)
And I keep my eyes on you
You know I figured out the secrets to your body, baby

Keep calm, keep calm
'Cause it's now or never
I want this forever
No one does it better, babe (I've been watchin' you all night long, babe)
Keep calm (slow it down)
Keep calm
Let's get it together
I want this forever
No one does it better, baby (I've been watchin' you all night long, babe)

I know you got your ways (slow it down)
I hope something change
I love the way you are
I'll take you either way
And if you don't come
I know you gon' stay
And I don't wanna let you be the one that got away
Let's do anything but that
Oh, no, oh, no
I'm willing to do anything but that (I've been watchin' you all night long, babe)

And you know I should be there, but you ain't right now
Could be here, but you ain't right now
Both those things could be changed right now, and
I shouldn't be thinkin' about (I've been watchin' you all night long, babe)
What I would do if I was beside you
In a king-sized suite, layin' in those sheets
You know we'd work it out (slow it down)
And I keep my eyes on you
You know I figured out the secrets to your body, baby

Keep calm, keep calm (oh yeah, yeah)
'Cause it's now or never
I want this forever
No one does it better, babe
And all I can say is
Keep calm (Slow it down)
And all I can say is
Keep calm
Together
Let's get it together
I want this forever
No one does it better, baby

Takin' your time, takin' your time
Takin' our time (slow it down)
And I get in and slide
Ooh, baby
Now I've been watchin' you all night long, babe
Slow it down




I've been watchin' you all night long, babe
Slow it down

Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I still remember we were
Slow it down
First time we in a rush
First time was not rehearsed
First time was almost perfect, still
There's no such thing as too far
No, no such thing as too far
I've been watchin' you all night long, babe
Too far gone
Still know that we can work
Slow it down
Still know what you deserve
Still mad 'bout who we are
But no different than we were
But still
There's no such thing as too far
No, no such thing as too far
I've been watchin' you all night long, babe
Too far gone

[Pre-Chorus]
Should be here, but you ain't right now
Slow it down
Could be there, but I ain't right now
Both those things could be changed right now, and
I shouldn't be thinkin' about
I've been watchin' you all night long, babe
What I would do if I was beside you
Slow it down
In a king-sized suite, layin' in those sheets
I've been watchin' you all night long, babe
You know we would get down and I keep my eyes on you
Slow it down
You know I figured out the secrets to your body, baby
I've been watchin' you all night long, babe

[Chorus]
Keep calm, keep calm
Slow it down
'Cause it's never never
I want this forever
No one does it better, babe
I've been watchin' you all night long, babe
Keep calm, keep calm
Slow it down
Let's get it together
I want this forever
No one does it better, baby
I've been watchin' you all night long, babe

[Verse 2]
I know you got your ways
Slow it down
I hope some change
I love the way you are
I'll take you either way
And if you don't come
Are you gon' stay?
And I don't wanna let you be the one that got away
Let's do anything but that
Slow it down
Oh, no, oh, no
I'm willing to do anything but that
I've been watchin' you all night long, babe
[Pre-Chorus]
And you know I should be there, but I ain't right now
Slow it down
Could be here, but you ain't right now
Both those things could be changed right now, and
I shouldn't be thinkin' about
I've been watchin' you all night long, babe
What I would do if I was beside you
Slow it down
In a king-sized suite, layin' in those sheets
I've been watchin' you all night long, babe
You know we would get down and I keep my eyes on you
Slow it down
You know I figured out the secrets to your body, baby
I've been watchin' you all night long, babe

Slow it down
'Cause it's never never
I want this forever
No one does it better, babe

@jonathanniakale

Chills all over when Daniel goes in at 00:41 with the bass drop. This RnB quality is hard to find nowadays

@ifury123

Cool get a blanket

@jonathanniakale

XDranzer000 Don't get me wrong, I listen to PND,Breezy,Jeremih ecc. (which have the most popular style actually) but Dvsn's music has a unique flavour. Old school style mixed with fresh ass beats.

@amina80

cool no one asked for your suggestions

@Arii3th3yurii
