Description
The party seems noisy, but the real spark isn't in the speakers, but in the glances across the room. When words get stuck somewhere in the air, and all communication boils down to “I see you, but I won't come over.” You stand by the wall, pretending to just catch the vibe, but your heart is already running a marathon.
It's paradoxical: the crowd is calling you to have fun, but the main story is in this quiet dance of the eyes, which will never get any closer. It's as if everyone here has their own role, and someone has been given the image of an unattainable ghost in the light of the disco balls.
Lyrics and translation
Original
Making eye contact, looking like you wanna
Came a long way to put baby in a corner
Thinking 'bout you, but you hardly notice
Tap me on my shoulder like why you so stoic?
I see the way you're looking, but you won't talk to me
I know what you're thinking when you put your eyes on me
This party needs you, but you'll never get close to me
This party needs you, but you'll never get close to me
I was leaning in a corner tryna catch a vibe
I'm not lost without you, even when you cross my mind
I feel the world is on fire, know what, know what I'm saying
I've been still all night, but my, my heart is racing
I see the way you're looking, but you won't talk to me
I know what you're thinking, when you put your eyes on me
This party needs you, but you'll never get close to me (uh-huh)
This party needs you, but you'll never get close to me
This party needs you, but you'll never get close to me (uh-huh)
This party needs you, but you'll never get close, n-never get close
Eyes on me
