Bright
ZAYN [Mind of Mine] Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The cage I was in fell away when she asked me to dance again
I found my life in between a first kiss and a last goodbye
The dust settled down, now I can see through the crowd
I'm loving the colorway
Surrounding your colored eyes
Though she is the kryptonite
I light her like dynamite, load her like gigabyte
Turn out the fucking lights, I wanna see you bright
Oh, I wanna see you bright (oh)
I wanna see you bright (oh)
I wanna see you bright (oh)
I wanna see you
For the love in my mind
Love for the bass
She likes getting high yeah
Just for the day
She's different in night
She knows what I say
Free of the flash, dirt on your shoes
I don't know you
I'm loving the colorway
Surrounding your colored eyes
Though she is the Kryptonite
She stays in my crib tonight
I light her like dynamite, load her like gigabyte
Turn out the fucking lights, I wanna see you bright
Oh, I wanna see you bright (oh)
I wanna see you bright (oh)
I wanna see you bright (oh)
I wanna see you
I found my life in between shots and getting high
The cage I was in fell away when she asked me to dance again
Oh, I wanna see you bright (oh)
I wanna see you bright (oh)
I wanna see you bright (oh)
I wanna see you
Oh, I wanna see you bright (oh)
I wanna see you bright (oh)
I wanna see you bright (oh)
I wanna see you
