Electricity
Jon Asher Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Whatchya doing to me?
You're taking my words so I cant speak.
You got me feeling so weak
Taking the breath right out of me

I feel my blood pump a little bit faster
Tickin? towards a coronary disaster.
Make this love just a little big stronger
Hold it on for a little bit longer- yeah.

(Chorus)
I wanna breathe with you
Wanna move simultaneously
Wanna see whatchya see
Wanna feel your Electricity.

Like a prayer in the night
I whispered three words
And called on the light

And these sparks are so bright
I see a future in black and white- yeah

I feel my blood pump a little bit faster
Tickin? towards a coronary disaster.

Make this love just a little big stronger
Hold it on for a little bit longer- yeah.

(Chorus)
I wanna breathe with you
Wanna move simultaneously
Wanna see whatchya see
Wanna feel your Electricity.

Oh, Oh, Oh, Eh, Eh, Eh
Lay here until we unfold
Breathe me and don?t let me go, go, go
(wanna feel, wanna feel)
Lay here until we unfold
Breathe me and don?t let me go, go, go-oh

(Chorus x 2)

Wanna feel your Electricity
