Lyrics

[Verse 1] I, I'm lost in my head again Time travellin', runnin' a—, runnin' away With darkness, my only friend Don't wanna do this all again You pull me back down to earth Clothes off, your hands are on, hands are on me Graceland-in' onto your bed, there you are [Pre-Chorus] In my head, there's a beat It's the beat that you make when you're movin' your body You prove that I can't escape I can't escape Got my heart in your hands And your hands on my chest In my chest, there's a breath It's the breath that you take away [Chorus] And you said, "Shut off the lights, we don't need them to dancе" Hey, oh-oh, you said, "Just shut off the lights, we don't need thеm to dance" Oh-oh, oh, you said, "Just shut off the lights, shut off the lights" [Verse 2] We're drunk, we're invincible No going quietly into the night This room is our universe You are my gravity tonight No talk of the future now Dark thoughts, you're shakin' 'em, takin' 'em out This rhythm that we create sets me straight [Pre-Chorus] In my head, there's a beat It's the beat that you make when you're movin' your body You prove that I can't escape I can't escape Got my heart in your hands And your hands on my chest In my chest, there's a breath It's the breath that you take away [Chorus] And you said, "Shut off the lights, we don't need them to dance" Hey, oh-oh, you said, "Just shut off the lights, we don't need them to dance" Oh, oh-oh, you said, "Just shut off the lights, shut off the lights" [Post-Chorus] Last night, you said, "Empty your head, be here with me Shut off the lights, we don't need them to dance Tune out the noise dor a moment" You said, "Let's just shut off the lights, we don't need them to dance" [Bridge] Mmh, mmh-mmh, mmh-mmh, mmh-mmh Oh-oh, you said, "Just shut off the lights, we don't need them to dance" Mmh, mmh-mmh, mmh-mmh, mmh-mmh (Oh, no, we don't, no, we don't, no, we don't, no, we don't, no, we don't, no, we don't, no, we don't, no, we don't) Oh-oh, you said, "Just shut off the lights, oh" "Shut off the lights, we don't need them to dance" [Outro] Last night, you said, "Empty your head, be here with me Shut off the lights, we don't need them to dance Tune out the noise for a moment" (For a moment) You said, "Let's just shut off the lights, we don't need them to dance"
