about

co-produced by BAYNK, whose production gives the sound an atmospheric mystery. It’s a song about falling in love at a club - the idea of connecting with a stranger immediately. But it’s also about past loves, that deja vu sensation, and that feeling of incidental attraction, but with somebody you already know.

lyrics

lit a match and watched it spark
kindled up my fractured heart
dancing as i fall apart
will you catch me
come and hold my broken bones
keep me warm when it gets cold
honey, love can be so cruel
not with me
i can show you
a different kind of loving
moving closer
in time
seeing stars
how you had me blushin
play it back in my mind
you forced your way in my head
now i’m under water and trying
to catch my breath
another wave rolls in
but i think i can swim
trying not to let it show
i think you get the hint
you know i’m in
i’m driving all over town at midnight
you’ve been all in my head gotta unwind
i’ve been drowning lately in your riptide
gotta get up high
gotta get up high
lit a match and watched it spark
under california’s stars
dancing and i’m falling hard
will you catch me
lay your head down next to mine
let our bodies intertwine
honey, love can be so blind
not with me
i can show you
a different kind of loving
moving closer
in time
seeing stars
how you had me blushin
play it back in my mind
you forced your way in my head
now i’m under water and trying
to catch my breath
another wave rolls in
but i think i can swim
trying not to let it show
i think you catch my drift
you know i’m in
you forced your way in my head
now i’m under water and trying
to catch my breath
another wave rolls in
but i think i can swim
trying not to let it show
i think you get the hint
you know i’m in
