Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Fireworks
Imma light it up like Fireworks
Give it to me wild like fireworks

You make me feel shy
When you look into my eyes
You make me feel nice
Slow whine when you're holding me tight
Hands on my thighs
DJ put the song on rewind
All through the night
Mash up my mind

Umeni roga baby
Wama neno tuwawache
Mimi na wewe tupendane
Wama neno tuwawache
Mimi na wewe tupendane

There is something about you
Something about you
There is something about you
Something about you
I can't live without you
Something about you
There is something about you
Something about you

Fireworks
Imma light it up like Fireworks
Give it to me wild like fireworks

I want you no lie
Good times more life, baby lets get high
Slow whine when holding me right
Temperature rising
Put our worries aside
All through the night
Feeling alright

Umeni roga baby
Wama neno tuwawache
Mimi na wewe tupendane
Wama neno tuwawache
Mimi na wewe tupendane

There's something about you
Something about you
There's something about you
Something about you
I can't live without you
Something about you
There's something about you
Something about you

Fireworks (fireworks)
Imma light it up like
Fireworks (fireworks)
Give it to me wild like fireworks

There is something about you
Something about you
There is something about you
Something about you
I cant live without you
Something about you
There is something about you
Something about you
