lyrics
(a match strikes) (ay... despacio) My lipstick ghost is on your glass You watch me like the night could last Ven aquí, put down your phone The vinyl crackles, we're alone (solos, solos) The candle leans, the shadows sway (sway, sway) Un poquito, don't look away Kiss me slow like smoke Slow like smoke, slow like smoke Let the whole night go up en humo Kiss me slow like smoke (fuego... fuego...) My red dress owns your doorknob now You promised leaving — you forgot how Tu corazón beats like a drum I taught it every roll and strum (ja, ja) Si esto es un sueño, let me sleep The morning's cheap, the night is deep (no me despiertes) Kiss me slow like smoke Slow like smoke, slow like smoke Let the whole night go up en humo Kiss me slow like smoke (fuego... fuego...) (slow... like smoke...) (the match burns out)
