lyrics
Red dress slides to your floor Nine o'clock — lock the door Candle dripping slow, señor That's the pace I'm asking for Dembow moving in my spine Take your time, take your time Sugar burns when it's slow That's the only way I glow Derríteme, derríteme Melt me slow like wax, bebé Derríteme, derríteme We're not done till it's day Derríteme — don't you stop Let the whole damn candle drop Your buttons hit the tile — one, two I lose count somewhere past you Mirror's fogging up on cue Diosa — yes, I heard you too Derríteme, derríteme Melt me slow like wax, bebé Derríteme, derríteme We're not done till it's day Derríteme — don't you stop Let the whole damn candle drop When the wax cools on the tray We light another anyway Toda mi piel says stay So stay Derríteme, derríteme Melt me slow like wax, bebé Derríteme, derríteme We're not done till it's day Derríteme — don't you stop Let the whole damn candle drop Derríteme Otra vez, otra vez
