Bend
Matthew Young Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Got me reeling
She knows how to move
I can feel it
Baby crystal hue
It's amazing
Lights are all on you
So dominate it
Drop for me now
Drop for me now
Drop for me now
Drop for me now
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend it up
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend it up
Feel like I'm living up the best part of my youth
Now she wanna party like it's 2002
Girl is my dilemma
Like she's Cali on a swing
Now that we hit the liquor like we're drinking Pepsi blue
Speaking language that I probably shouldn't use
Whisper words that I only say to you
She made a offer that I really can't refuse
Laying out on the carpet wearing nothing but her shoes
High heels, red bottoms
Gold hooves, nothing else
High heels, red bottoms
Gold hooves, nothing else
Drop for me now
Drop for me now
Drop for me now
Drop for me now
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend it up
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend it up
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend it up
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend it up
Wish you don't stop
We go bang like a gunshot
Whatever you want love
I give you all that I've got
Better with the lights on
So pull a little closer
You know that I want you
I want you
I want you
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend it up
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend it up
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend it up
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend it up
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend it up
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend it up
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend it up
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend
I love the way she bend it u
