Lyrics and translation

Original

Kinda wanna wait till it drops.

You know those nights that aren't planned?

Like you rush home from work, shower, eat, makeup, jam to your tunes, have a drink, get a little waved.

I'm running late, but I still have time.

Take some pictures, walk fast, music's blasting.

Bump into an old school friend, tap my card, elevator, train.

Four stops to Hackney Wick.

We meet outside Colors. We have a drink on the canal. The sun's just set. It's ten

PM.

Pinks turn to dark blue and gray and glow.

The moon's reflecting all pretty on the water. You're looking so fit. You call it dressing down.

It's wearing as little clothes as possible. I wrap my coat around your shoulders.

It's just mad energy in East tonight.

Why does this city get me so well? So we head to the warehouse.

I hear the bass, the music, and I succumb.

We drink and we dance, and we just have a fucking good time.

And then I remember there's another party. Back to a friend's just down the canal.

She lives off my old street in Bow.

Three minutes from Vicky Park, and we break into the park, and we just run.

And I'm laughing so hard that I fall to the floor.

You lie next to me, and I start to trip.

The stars, they're molding into spaceships, like aliens snuggling in the clouds. It's sexy.

You're so hot, we start to kiss. Your lips feel so good.

And then I remember there's another party. Baby's DJing, and we're back.

And you're in pulses. I love the way it pulses.

That pulse is, pulse is so fucking hard.

Take me right back when in Hackney Wick.

Take my heart, take my heat from here. Take me right back when in Hackney Wick.

All the love, all the energy, energy, energy, energy, energy.

Take me right back when in Hackney Wick. Take my heart, take my heat from here.

Take me right back when in Hackney Wick.

All the love, all the energy, energy, energy, energy, energy, energy.

Take me right back. It was always Hackney.

See me when I feel it, yeah.

Still feel it like it was yesterday.

Take me right back when in Hackney Wick, Hackney

Wick, Hackney Wick, Hackney Wick.

Still feel it like it was yesterday. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Still feel it
