Khwezi feat. Laura Greaves Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't need a drummer but I'm still taking you home
Cos it's true I need someone like you
Can you see the words
Written on my lips
I want someone to listen to the words that make me sing
Cos it's true I need someone brand new
Tell me you'll love me still tomorrow
Wherever you go boy I will follow
You shot me down just like an arrow
I like the way you move your Shadow
Tell me you'll love me still tomorrow
Wherever you go boy I will follow
You shot me down just like an arrow
Can you feel my blood
You spin me round and round so that I can't get up again
Cos I've fallen so hard I'm bruising
You make me feel like I'm losing
Inhibitions and I'm missing you
Every minute you know that I'm wishing you were here
Can you find a way to be near
I like the way you move your Shadow
Tell me you'll love me still tomorrow
Wherever you go boy I will follow
You shot me down just like an arrow?
I like the way you move your Shadow
Tell me you'll love me still tomorrow
Wherever you go boy I will follow
You shot me down just like an arrow
