Market
Nick Hakim Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My flame for you grows stronger
It will never die (oh)
I canβ€²t recall the last time
I felt this high (oh)
I've seen you dance like the flame
Keeping it alive (oh)
My flame for you keeps glowing
It will never die

This flame is strong and humble
It will never die (oh)
Like all, we sometimes crumble
But embers reignite (oh)
Iβ€²ve seen you dance like the flame
Keeping it alive (oh)




This flame for you keeps glowing
It will never die

I don't know if I have the words in my vocab to describe this album. It is EVERYTHING- your voice, the instruments, the lyrics. You literally sound like what I imagine happiness and love to sound like. The bridges (or waever you call it but the parts where you have the instruments intensify and the VOICEE aghhhh ) it IS AMAZING. Glad to have found you this year - Needy Bees, Green twins, cuffed, Will this make me good, WHOO, all these changes, perfume, sleep, Ani, market, those days, only one, jp -my favorites!! I'm only 16 so please just give me 10 years to see you perform live. Don't think I can vocalise how beautiful this is. Thank you for sharing your work truly.
