[Intro]
Headlights blur
Slow turn, late hour
You in my phone
Name glowing like a flower (yeah)
[Verse 1]
You say, “Pull up, I’m by the chai stand”
Gold bangles flicker on the ‘gram in your right hand
Auto in the rain, driver talking ‘bout the match score
I’m just plotting how to get you on this back door
Loose shirt, cologne, breath a little peppermint
You the kind of calm make a whole city relevant
Traffic in my head, but your voice cut through
“Come upstairs, I got time, just you”
[Chorus – Featured Singer]
Come ride this late night, boy, don’t be shy (mm)
You know this rooftop feel like we could touch the sky
Slow dance, heart pace, clothes still on
But the way you look at me feel so wrong, so strong
Come ride this late night, lights all low
We don’t need much when we move this close
If the sun comes up, let it find us here
Breath on breath, ear to ear (yeah)
[Verse 2]
Loose cushions on the floor, fan spinning kinda crooked
Incense in the corner, you laughing while you cook it
Leftover rice in a pan, we sharing one plate
You got curry on your lip, I forget what I ate
Your playlist humming, window frame rusted
You say, “Everybody left, you the one I trusted”
I lean on the wall, watch your anklet swing
Say, “If this a dream, never set that ring”
[Chorus – Featured Singer]
Come ride this late night, boy, don’t be shy
You know this rooftop feel like we could touch the sky
Slow dance, heart pace, clothes still on
But the way you look at me feel so wrong, so strong
Come ride this late night, lights all low
We don’t need much when we move this close
If the sun comes up, let it find us here
Breath on breath, ear to ear (oh)
[Bridge – Rap + Feature]
[Rapper]
You hum old film lines, I mouth ‘em back
Said you tired of boys who just talk in caps
I move quiet, hand on your waist
Your pulse in my thumb like a metronome pace
[Featured Singer]
Why you always act so cool? (so cool)
Every time you near, I lose my rules
If this just a phase, let it take all night
If we never say a word, still it feel so right (yeah)
[Chorus – Both]
Come ride this late night, don’t be shy
We on this rooftop, feel like we could touch the sky
Slow dance, heart pace, clothes still on
But the way we breathe together feel strong, feel strong
Come ride this late night, lights all low
We don’t need much when we move this close
If the sun comes up, let it find us here
Breath on breath, disappear (mm)
