Kepi and Kat Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The city is livin', you stop me like a sign
Where are you headed, walking down that street
As your body moves, it moves with mine
As you turn and look at me

Your face is in the limelight
Your face is in the limelight
Your face is in the limelight

The city is livin', you stop me like a sign
Where are you headed, walking down that street
As your body moves, it moves with mine
As you turn and look at me

Your face is in the limelight
Your face is in the limelight

The city is groovin'
The city is pumpin'

Your face is in the limelight

Where are you headed

Your face is in the limelight
Your face is in the limelight
Your face is in the limelight
Your face is in the limelight, high

The city is groovin' and I feel the beat
You catch my eye and keep me locked to you
Then I feel the rush take over me
As I turn and look at you

Your face is in the limelight
Your face is in the limelight
Your face is in the limelight
Your face is in the limelight, high

High

High in the city

High in the city





City

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Kepi and Kat's song Limelight describe a moment of connection and attraction between two people in the midst of a bustling city. The song's opening lines paint a picture of a city in motion, with the singer apparently caught up in the flow of pedestrian traffic. Suddenly, they see someone who stops them "like a sign," and as they move together through the crowd, there is a sense of physical and emotional alignment: "As your body moves, it moves with mine."


The repeated refrain of "your face is in the limelight" emphasizes the intensity of the moment and the central focus being on the person who has caught the singer's attention. The chorus builds to a rhythmic climax with the repeated use of the word "high," conveying a sense of excitement and elevation. The final lines of the song - "City" - suggest a continuation of the energy and vibrancy of the urban setting even as the singer's attention remains locked on the object of their desire.
