Miami 82
Syn Cole Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh
How quickly I come undone
Like melting ice on the sun
Why would that stop when I'm falling free
Midnight daydream

Oh
You watch me and I'm exposed
Like lightning bolts in my bones
Why would that stop when I'm falling free
Midnight daydream

Midnight daydream
Midnight daydream

Oh
How quickly I come undone
Like melting ice on the sun
Why would that stop when I'm falling free
Midnight daydream

Oh
You touch me and I explode
Like lightning bolts in my bones
Why would that stop when I'm falling free
Midnight daydream





Midnight daydream
Midnight daydream
