Pressure
Dirty Vegas Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Waiting, watching you, waiting, watching you
Waiting, watching you, waiting, watching you
Waiting, watching you, waiting, watching you

Waiting, watching you, waiting, watching you
Waiting, watching you, waiting, watching you
Waiting, watching you, waiting, watching you
Waiting, watching you, I feel the need
Lost in this moment and I cannot breathe
More that I won't you and more that I get
Can't shake this fever that's making me, making me

Heart is connected and our lips entwine
Show me your secrets and I'll show you mine
The temperature's rising and I feel the heat
My heart is pumping locked to this, locked to this beat

Making me, making me sweat
Can't take this pressure

Waiting, watching you, waiting, watching you
Waiting, watching you, waiting, watching you
Waiting, watching you, waiting, watching you
Waiting, watching you

Waiting, watching you, I feel the need
Lost in this moment and I cannot breathe
More that I won't you and more that I get
Can't shake this fever that's making me, making me sweat





Can't take this pressure
Pressure, pressure, pressure
