In The Dark
Dev Feat. Flo Rida Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

On my waist, through my hair
Think about it when you touch me there
Close my eyes, here you are
All alone dancing in the dark
Tell me baby if it's wrong
To let my hands do what they want?
Late at night I pretend we are dance-dance
Dancing in the dark

Yeah, I'm like, come on let me hit that
Love when it's pitch black
Girl I can't see, without the whirl with your six pack
Thinkin 'bout nothin' but the stones and the impact
Freakin' in the dark tryna find where ya lips at
‘cause I like your sexy over me
I gotta have it like I haven't and ready to leave
I'm talking magic when it's happening under the sheets
We get it crackin' in the passion in the moment of peace
Pause, you know she want it all, she know I want it all
Be all up in them draws, might run into a wall, like stop
It's time to go see her, goin' with the night owl
Yeah it's time for the beauty, I got the booty, I like rounds
So yeah that's where my hands went
Got lil' mama dancin'
God I wanna bust like she's hoppin' on a transit
Just like a bandit, caramel it's so candid
Shorty I know you like where my palms just handed

On my waist, through my hair
Think about it when you touch me there
Close my eyes, here you are
Dance-dance-dancing in the dark! (dark dark dark)
Ooh la la, ooh la la, ooh la la
Dancing in the dark
Ooh la la, ooh la la, ooh la la
Dancing in the dark

When you work on me,
Open my body up and do some surgery,
N-n-n-now that you got me up
I wanna taste it, taste it
And see those pocket aces
W-wanna see who you are.
Got a sex drive that's to push the start
I got a sex drive that's to push the start
Push push push to start, push push push to start
Push push push to start
I got a sex drive that's to push the start

On my waist, through my hair
Think about it when you touch me there
Close my eyes, here you are
Dance-dance-dancing in the dark! (dark dark dark)
Ooh la la, ooh la la, ooh la la
Dancing in the dark
Ooh la la, ooh la la, ooh la la
Dancing in the dark

I love to flirt to see.
I'm only talking to you if you wanna surf my seas
Now that you got me boy
You know you better spice it, flavor it g-get it right; savor it
W-wanna see who you are, got a sex drive to push the start
W-wanna see who you are, got a sex drive to push the start
I got a sex drive that's to push the start
Push push push to start,
Push push push to start
I got a sex drive that's to push the start

On my waist, through my hair
Think about it when you touch me there
Close my eyes, here you are, all alone dancing in the dark.
Tell me baby is it wrong?
To let my hands do what they want

Late at night I pretend we are:
Dance-dance- dancing in the dark
Ooh la la, ooh la la, ooh la la
Dancing in the dark
Ooh la la, ooh la la, ooh la la
Dancing in the dark
Tell me baby if its wrong

Dancing in the dark
To let my hands do what they want

Dancing in the dark (it's the cataracs!)
Dancing in the dark
Ooh la la, ooh la la, ooh la la




Dancing in the dark
Ooh la la, ooh la la, ooh la la

I'm like, come on, let me get that, love when it's pitch black
Girl, I can't see but I'mma roll through your six pack
Thinking 'bout nothing but us causing an impact
Freaking in the dark, tryna find where your lips at
Cause I like your sexy over me
I gotta have it like a habit, ain't ready to leave
I'm talking magic when it's happening under the sheets
We get it cracking in the passion, a moment of peace
Ball, she know I want it all, be all up in them drawers
Might run into a wall, like stop
It's hide-and-go-seek and I'mma go with the night out
So fly with the beauty, got the booty I like, round
So yeah, that's where my hands went, got lil mama dancing
Got her wanna bust like she hopping on a transit
Just like a bandit, Flo Rida so candid
Shorty, I know you like where my palms just landed

It's weird how I can recognize any song pre 2012-13 and post 2008 even if I haven't listened it. Maybe it's because those were core teen years for most of us who are depressed adults now.

@Cakeboy99

Mainstream pop music from that era just followed a characteristic trend/style much like 2012-2015 EDM

@AA-wu2fk

@hammad not all of us are depressed,probably you
