Bend Small for Me

Verse 1

Market dey close, kerosene light dey glow

Pepper and dust settle soft and slow

Aisle too tight, baskets touching my knee

You dey pass through, hip dey brush past me

Tomato stand between us, red and round

Your wrapper catch the wind, no sound

I say make way, you smile, you no move

Small small, small small, we dey find groove

Pre-Chorus

How many ways you go squeeze past me

How many times my heart go skip, go free

Tell me if the space too small for two

I got room, I got room, for you

Chorus

Bend small for me, bend small for me

Let your shoulder lean where my shoulder be

No need plenty space, just a little room

Bend small for me, under this same moon

Bend small for me, bend small for me

Close the gap, make the whole world agree

No need plenty space, just a little room

Bend small for me, bend small for me

Verse 2

Kitchen dey steam, pestle dey knock the bowl

Firewood smoke curling like it get soul

You dey stir soup, elbow near my chest

Pot too hot, but this heat is the best

I lean to taste, spoon between your hand

Waist to counter, no room to stand

You laugh small, say I go burn my lip

I say na you sweet pass anything I sip

Pre-Chorus

How many ways you go squeeze past me

How many times my heart go skip, go free

Tell me if the space too small for two

I got room, I got room, for you

Chorus

Bend small for me, bend small for me

Let your shoulder lean where my shoulder be

No need plenty space, just a little room

Bend small for me, under this same moon

Bend small for me, bend small for me

Close the gap, make the whole world agree

No need plenty space, just a little room

Bend small for me, bend small for me

Bridge

Forget the room, forget the size

It's how you fold into my side

Every tight corner turn sweet somehow

Bend small, bend small, right here, right now

Chorus

Bend small for me, bend small for me

Let your shoulder lean where my shoulder be

No need plenty space, just a little room

Bend small for me, under this same moon

Bend small for me, bend small for me

Close the gap, make the whole world agree

No need plenty space, just a little room

Bend small for me, bend small for me
