Kiss & thrills
Hindi Zahra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tears and thrills
When your kiss smells like love
When your touch brings
Tears and thrills
When your kiss smells like love
In your heart
In your heart
Keep it in the dark
In the dark, in the dark
I can find no peace
And I know how to please you
But not this time
I need to see you
When silence comes to the night
And when love is deep and tight
Oh, I need to see you
When Silence comes to the night
And when love I deep
In your heart
In your heart
In your heart
Keep it in the dark
In the dark, in the dark
You're moving under my skin slowly
Who's gonna love you like I do
Who's gonna kiss you like I do, baby
In your heart
In your heart
In your heart
Keep it in the dark
In the dark, in the dark
Who's gonna love you like I do
Who's gonna kiss you like I do
The song "Kiss & Thrills" by Hindi Zahra is a melancholic love song that delves into the feeling of intense passion and heartache associated with a failed relationship. The song begins with the singer acknowledging the paradoxical emotions that arise when they are touched by their lover's embrace. The touch evokes tears as well as thrills, and the kiss emanates a scent of love that lingers. The chorus repeats several times, commanding the listener to "Keep it in the dark" in their heart, symbolizing the buried emotions and the secrets of the past relationship that are better left buried.
The song continues with the singer expressing her inability to find any peace after the relationship has ended. She knows how to please her lover, but the relationship has passed a point beyond where it can be salvaged. She yearns to see her lover at moments of silence and in times when love is all-enveloping, implying that she still has feelings for the person but they have grown distant. The singer's passion can be felt through her soulful singing and gripping melody that builds up throughout the song.
In conclusion, "Kiss & Thrills" is an emotional song that takes the listener on a rollercoaster ride of feelings of love and heartbreak. It is a testament to Hindi Zahra's skill as a songwriter and performer who can capture the essence of a failed relationship in a poignant yet elegant melody.
