Back Burner - Kele

How many times

How many times

How many times

How many times

How many times

How many times

Do I need to tell you?

Once more, but this time we feel it

Off grid, words lose their meanings

These nights have lost a certain feeling

Through flames we turn to gold

Sometimes it feels like we’re dreaming

Kiss me hard, make me feel it

Turn night, let’s awaken our feelings

Through flames we turn to gold

See, my guy’s one of a kind

And he likes to go but

Wake me up in 15, there is something on his mind

Like our puzzle’s not connecting and

Maybe it’s our time

It’s giving me anxiety

Just when we think we it

God shows his

Have I been so inconsiderate, only wrapped up in myself

Have I been so absent-minded not to see the hours weep

Every day, every week

Do you remember how we it when we were in our prime

Riding bikes to the Thames and doing it twice a night

We’ll never have those days again, will we babe?

I’m not trying to start with you, so baby just be kind

Do you really want to punish me for some unspoken crime?

Do you really want to choke the love that used to rule our lives?

Let’s not start the day like this

Once more, but this time we feel it

Off grid, words lose their meanings

These nights have lost a certain feeling

Through flames we turn to gold

Sometimes it feels like we’re dreaming

Kiss me hard, make me feel it

Turn night, let’s awaken our feelings

Through flames we turn to gold

So please don’t take that tone with me, just put a record on

No, I don’t fuck with The Smiths, but to The Cure I can get down

We could put on Radio 4 and listen to them talk, like grown-ups talk

For all the times I wasn’t kind and pushed you until you snapped

For all the times I said the things I know I can’t get back

For all the times I told you lies and brought tears to your eyes

I’m so sorry I made you cry

Watching on the sofa

touch your hand in mine

We watch as romance starts to flicker

Never tire of the sparks

Feel the canyon drip between us

Silence takes us to the night

Still hoping that you’ll save me

Throw those arms around me

Squeeze me 'til my cracks peel

Fix the broken parts of me

I’m sorry if I’m doing it wrong

I’m sorry if I’m not the one

For all of the times that I’ve tried but I’ve failed to put you first

I’m sorry if I’m doing it wrong

I’m sorry if I’m not the one

For all of the times that I acted a fool and put you on the back burner
