Dave & Tems – ‘Raindance‘ Lyrics
Verse 1: Dave
Let’s get the party started
See you at the bar, you was hardly talking
That’s when I knew that your heart was scarring
Friends to lovers, need a part to star in, like, “Wait, babe”
Let me ask your pardon
This ain’t Gucci, this is Prada, darling
If you want something, you can ask me, darling
Then you started laughing ’cause you think I’m joking
But looking in your eyes is the best thing
Brake lights giving you the red skin
You was in a bad mood from we stepped in
Though you checked out ’fore we even checked in
On the phone you gon’ vent to your best friend
The one you gave me the lecture, but I ain’t gon’ sweat you, babe
I’ma let you catch up with your boy, undress you
And let me tell you why I’ma bless you
Chorus: Tems
Sway my mind, falling away
In my heart, I know
You feel the same when you’re with me
You know I’m all you need
You’re where I wanna be
My darling, can’t you see?
Post-Chorus: Tems
I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
Interlude: Tems & Dave
Fell into you
Say you want me in the mood
Tryna hide my feelings for you
Don’t wanna argue, not with you
Tell me why you’re so in denial
Hold me close, don’t tell me goodnight
Are you down to get me?
Tell me when you’re ready, I’m ready (Yeah)
Verse 2: Dave
We can get into it or we can get intimate
The shower when you sing in it
Better than Beyoncé, I like the sound of fiancée
You know it’s got a little ring to it
And really when I think of it
Growing up, I didn’t ever see marriages
No weddings, no horse, no carriages
I wanna do things different and change the narrative
God knows you a wild child, beautiful child, I need your help
Looking like you come from the ’90s by yourself
My mum sixty-one and her favourite line to tell her son is
Sometimes she wish that she had a girl
I wanna take you back to a time, back to a trip
You had that white wine that I never got to sip
And dinner wasn’t ruined ’cause you never got to pick
I know that everybody told me that I’m sick ’cause
Chorus: Tems
Sway my mind, falling away
In my heart, I know
You feel the same when you’re with me
You know I’m all you need
You’re where I wanna be
My darling, can’t you see?
Post-Chorus: Tems
(I love you) Me and you, never let me go
(I love you) Me and you, I’ll tell you two times
Me and you, never let me go
(I love you) Me and you, I’ll tell you two times
It’s me and you, never let me go
(I love you) Me and you, I’ll tell you two times
Me and you, never let me go
Me and you, I’ll tell you two times
Bridge: Dave & Tems
I said lean with it, rock with it (Tell me, you’re the only one I want)
Your finger, I can put a rock in it (Tell me, you’re the only one I want, baby)
Finger, I can put a rock in it (Tell me, you’re the only one I want)
Banker, they can put a block in it (Tell me, you’re the only one I want, baby)
Said rock with it, bounce with it (Tell me, you’re the only one I want)
Your left wrist, I can put my house in it (Tell me, you’re the only one I want, baby)
You wanna let babe, I can put my house in it (Tell me, you’re the only one I want)
Babe, I could put my spouse in it (Tell me, you’re the only one I want, baby)
