MNEK feat. Sub Focus Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My love, my, my love
My love, my, my love
My love, my, my love
My love, my, my love

My love, my, my love
My love, my, my love
My love, my, my love

Oh my love, your love is like a flame I'd never blow
A song that I've always known
Higher than I've ever been before, my love

Oh my love, your love is like a dream can be awake
I'm taking a leap of faith
I took a turn but I don't want away, my love

And when we're close, you know I feel passion
In the eye of your fatal attraction
My main attraction, a chain reaction
And when we touch, we beat, it's automatic
I've become obsessive, informatic
Systematic, gotta have it, my love

And when we're close, you know I feel passion
In the eye of your fatal attraction
My main attraction, a chain reaction
And when we touch, we beat, it's automatic
I've become obsessive, informatic
Systematic, gotta have it

And when we're close, you know I feel passion
In the eye of your fatal attraction
My main attraction, a chain reaction
And when we touch, we beat, it's automatic
I've become obsessive, informatic
Systematic, gotta have it, my love

And when we're close, you know I feel passion
In the eye of your fatal attraction
My main attraction, a chain reaction
And when we touch, we beat, it's automatic
I've become obsessive, informatic
Systematic, gotta have it

My love, my, my love
My love, my, my love
My love, my, my love
And when we're close I feel with you (oh oh oh oh)

Oh my love, you don't know what you do or mean to me
Your presence is a fantasy
It's never nothing short of ecstasy, my love

Oh my love, it's a feeling that can't be described
Oh my love, shared between only you and I
My love, too much seldom seems to be enough, my love

And when we're close, you know I feel passion
In the eye of your fatal attraction
My main attraction, a chain reaction
And when we touch, we beat, it's automatic
I've become obsessive, informatic
Systematic, gotta have it, my love

And when we're close, you know I feel passion
In the eye of your fatal attraction
My main attraction, a chain reaction
And when we touch, we beat, it's automatic
I've become obsessive, informatic
Systematic, gotta have it

My love, my, my love
My love, my, my love
My love, my, my love
My love, my, my love





And when we're close I feel with you (oh oh oh oh)

MNEK - what can be said about this guy - he brings in the uptempo sing styles of New Jack and RnB to great effect with Dance music.  Awesome

@davewunderle3762

I cannot get over the fact that MNEK is only 19 years of age. Incredible! 
The same can be said for this song. Sub has really done well with Torus, and long may this continue!

@pakito4186

Sub Focus is so underrated.
