Description
When the evening pretends to be tired and the city lazily draws the curtains on its windows, a small drama of two indecisive people begins. There's electricity in the air - not from the lamps, but from a gaze caught across the room. It seems simple: turn off the lights and let something alive happen. But people are such masters of doubt - even when the heart is already hitting the switch, the mind is looking for a safety manual. This song has that feeling of anticipation - when nothing has happened yet, but it's already clear that things will only get closer from here on out. Warm, a little uncertain, and very human: two people, nite, and one simple request - "turn the lights off."
Lyrics and translation
Original
I said, ooh, come on, baby, turn the lights off.
Ooh, 'cause it's getting late.
I said, ooh,
I know you're gonna try to hang tough.
Ooh, you shouldn't hesitate.
I, I, I had love to burn.
You had a wounded heart.
And I, I, I's across a crowded room.
Should we let this start?
I said, ooh, come on, baby, turn the lights off.
Ooh, 'cause it's getting late.
I said, ooh,
I know you're gonna try to hang tough.
Ooh, you shouldn't hesitate.
I, I,
I had love to burn.
You had a wounded heart.
And I, I,
I's across a crowded room.
Should we let this start?
I said, ooh, come on, baby, turn the lights off.
Ooh, 'cause it's getting late.
I said, ooh,
I know you're gonna try to hang tough.
Ooh, you shouldn't hesitate.
I said, ooh, come on, baby, turn the lights off. Come on, baby, turn the lights off.
Ooh, 'cause it's getting late.
Turn the lights off, yeah.
I said, ooh,
I know you're gonna try to hang tough. Come on, baby, turn the lights off.
Ooh, you shouldn't hesitate
