Stella
Galantis Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Stella
Got the conversation that I like
Serving tables way after midnight
Stealing hearts away like a thief in the night
As you move through the dark

Stella
Turn my way when nobody's watching
Stars collide like boom when we're touching
Lighting up the sky, well I like what I see
And I know what I like

Dance with me
Like lovers do
Break these chains
Take this heart home with you

So won't you dance with me
Like lovers do?
Dance with me
Take this heart home with you

Stella
Got me lit and I wanna show ya
Feel you close, but need to be closer
My supernova
Like a thief in the night
As you move through the dark

Dance with me (Stella)
Like lovers do
Break these chains
Take this heart home with you

So won't you dance with me (dance with me)
Like lovers do? (Lovers do)
Break these chains
Take this heart home with you

So won't you dance with me (just dance with me)
Like lovers do?
Dance with me
Take this heart home with you

Dance with me
Dance with me
Dance with me, dance with me
Like lovers do

So won't you dance with me (dance with me)
Like lovers do? (Lovers do)
Break these chains
Take this heart home with you

So won't you dance with me (just dance with me)
Like lovers do?
Dance with me
Take this heart home with you

Dance with me
Dance with me




Dance with me, dance with me
Like lovers do
