Red satin

Tekst utworu

[Intro - whispered, close mic, lamp hum and vinyl crackle] (lock the door) She don't knock, she just leans in the frame Gold on her neck, and she already knows my name [Verse 1 - rap, low and smooth] Red satin hangin' like a warning sign Fingers in her hair like she's countin' my time That smirk on her face says she knows what she did Got me sittin' here sweatin' like a guilty kid Gold coin on her chest, swingin' slow like a clock Every tick says "stay," every tock says "lock" Wood walls, low lamp, only shadows can see She don't need to say a word, she just looks at me [Pre-Hook - sung, breathy, rising] She don't play fair Pull me by the stare One hand in her hair And I'm already there [Hook - sung, hypnotic, stacked harmonies] Red satin, low light She's the devil I invite Tie it loose, pull it tight Gonna ruin me tonight Red satin, low light Every sin feels right I don't wanna fight Just let her in my life tonight [Verse 2 - rap, slower and colder, with confidence] She got trouble in the curve of her lips Old money taste with a whiskey kiss Robe slippin' off one shoulder, she don't fix it Know exactly what she's doin', and she still won't admit it Other men talk, she don't give 'em the time I just stood still and she crossed the line Heard she breaks hearts like it's somethin' to do But tonight it's my turn, and I'm breakin' too [Pre-Hook - sung] She don't play fair Pull me by the stare One hand in her hair And I'm already there [Hook - sung, bigger] Red satin, low light She's the devil I invite Tie it loose, pull it tight Gonna ruin me tonight Red satin, low light Every sin feels right I don't wanna fight Just let her in my life tonight [Beat Switch - rap, aggressive, distorted 808s, the lamp flickers] (lights out) Lamp go dark and the room catch fire Satin on the floor and the night get higher She say "quiet," then she make me loud Pull me close like I'm the last man around Badass with a halo she stole from above Callin' it trouble when it feels like love Gold coin swingin', I'm hypnotized Ain't no savin' me now, I see it in her eyes [Bridge - sung, stripped, piano and breath] Don't tell me your name Don't tell me you'll stay Just leave me the satin When you walk away [Final Hook - sung, slow, half-time] Red satin, low light Left the lamp on all night You were wrong, felt so right Still smell you on my pillow tonight Red satin... (low light) [Outro - whispered] (lock the door) (she's back) [End]
