This is a pure pop ballad that explores the intimate moments and deeper connection between two people. I tried to capture the essence of a love that is honest, effortless, and entirely, unabashedly confident in itself.
(Verse)
Other lovers they have to work on it
But for us, it just comes naturally
Just like we were made for each other
Our bodies and our souls in sync
And we waste the day ’til we fade away
Until we see the sun start to drop
And then it’s time to play, babe, we know this game
It’s how we do it when the lights are off
(Chorus)
When the lights are off, and the touching’s soft
And the temperature rises, and we both get lost
We lay here in the dark, moving nice and slow
And melt into each other, where we meet the dawn
There ain’t nothin’ to keep us apart
When the lights are off
(Verse)
When you’re standing there in the morning
Like the sun glowin’ out of your eyes
My body sends me a warning
Tells me to save my strength for tonight
But it’s so damn hard to keep my hands off
And just you try to tell my lovin’ to stop
My passion won’t subside, and, baby, you can’t hide
I’m gonna find you when the lights are off
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
And it’s nothin’ we should be ashamed of
It’s nothin’ we should blush about
To know what I see when you’re talkin’ to me
And get turned on by the curves of your mouth
(Chorus)
