Kylie Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

How do you describe a feeling?
I've only ever dreamt of this

Oh
Dj's spinning up my favorite song,
Hurry up and get a groove on
Light fantastic and it won't be long,
Don't let the moment slip away

'Cause you and I could find a pleasure,
No one else has ever known
Feels like it is now or never, don't want to be alone

How does it feel in my arms?
How does it feel in my arms?
Do you want it?
Do you need it?
Can you feel it?
Tell me
How does it feel in my arms?

Got a feeling this is something strong
All I wanna do is move on
No more wondering where I belong
So never go away

'Cause you and I are guilty pleasure,
No one else has ever known
Feels like it is now or never, don't want to be alone

How does it feel in my arms? (How does it feel in my arms?)
How does it feel in my arms?
Do you want it?
Do you need it?
Can you feel it?
Tell me
How does it feel in my arms?

I'm listening
How does it feel in my arms? (How does it feel in my arms?)
How does it feel in my arms? Yeah, yeah
Do you want it?
Do you need it?
Can you feel it?




Tell me
How does it feel in my arms?

We need more Kylie Minogue and less... today's crap music

@leeriches8841

True. Though her recent music leaves a lot to be desired. Her last tour wasn't that great really.

@adamchase5610

Yes please more Kylie 👍👍

@bradbradlylife9918

lee riches everyone tell her to work with Empire of the Sun!! Or even Pnau would make more sense. Even a song or so would be so freakin awesome

@fanspans7851

Don't care if you miss the old times, the best thing is to have the chance to live them again with these songs. Yay!
