Cosmic Kiss
Starboy Nathan Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I see you dancing on the floor like your name's on it.
There's a space right here with your name on it.
When I get you baby I'm gon' put my name on it.
You're a fire baby you should let me rain on it.

Oh oh, I've been lookin' everywhere that I go,
I'll be your shield, put your hand on my sword.
Your body's knockin' so I open the door,

I'll take your jacket; leave the rest on the floor.

When we touch, gonna feel like
The planets gravitatin', the stars align
It's not enough, just for one night,
If the planets spin around us tonight
As we touch, making like the sun had heated up
Take my hand, the only way is up
Leave the world behind, it's a cosmic kiss, cosmic kiss, yea

I see you dancing on the floor like your name's on it.
There's a space right here with your name on it.
When I get you baby I'm gon' put my name on it.
You're a fire baby you should let me rain on it.

Oh oh, close your eyes and just forget where you are
Jump on my rocket and we'll go to the stars
We'll make it hotter than 10, 000 degrees
Open your eyes; you won't believe what you see

When we touch, gonna feel like
The planets gravitatin', the stars align
It's not enough, just for one night,
If the planets spin around us tonight
And as we touch, making like the sun had heated up
Take my hand, the only way is up
Leave the world behind, it's a cosmic kiss, cosmic kiss, yea

And oh, here's everything you need and more
You're so sexy when you let me (?)
We can explore, explore, explore, explore

I can feel it when we touch, gonna feel like
The planets gravitatin', the stars align
It's not enough, just for one night,
If the planets spin around us tonight
And as we touch, making like the sun had heated up

Take my hand, the only way is up
Leave the world behind, it's a cosmic kiss, cosmic kiss, yea
