Drop
Mr. Smiths Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Drop a needle on the grove
And dance with me slow
Like Times Square, New Years Eve, yeah
Think I heard a drop, on the tin roof baby
Drop, those blinds
What you say we ride this thunderstorm out?
What goes up baby must come down
We've been holding this in like rain in a cloud
Call off your army, make me a mess girl
Nothing disarms me like seeing that dress
Drop just a little more
With a black lace trail
Take it out on me, and leave
Go to hell on the bedroom floor
Drop back in time to good morning back to back
Love girl, let's get back to that us
We don't have to apologize
Just put your lips on my lips
Let's start from the top
It's the only way to save what we've got
So drop your hair and follow
Me to the candlelight
Yeah drop all your plans for tomorrow
'Cause this is gonna take all night
What goes up baby must come down
Just fall on me when the bottom falls out
Call off your army, make me a mess girl
Nothing disarms me like seeing that dress
Drop just a little more
With a black lace trail
Take it out on me, and leave
Go to hell on the bedroom floor
Drop back in time to good morning back to back
Love girl, let's get back to that us
We don't have to apologize
Just put your lips on my lips
Let's start from the top
It's the only way to save what we've got
So drop
Been on the edge
Baby let's fall back in love
Hold onto me let gravity
Do what it does
And sink a little deeper into this bed
Reach high heaven while the doubts in our heads
Drop just a little more
With a black lace trail
Take it out on me, and leave
Go to hell on the bedroom floor
Drop back in time to good morning back to back
Love girl, let's get back to that us
We don't have to apologize
Just put your lips on my lips
Let's start from the top
It's the only way to save what we've got
So drop
