Beat Won't Let Us Leave 5

Verse

Neighbour dey knock, we no hear am

Amala steam rising past the rim of my glass

Your gele loose but your smile still tight

Two left feet moving like a perfectly choreographed dance

Bass in my chest where the hunger used to be

You laugh and I laugh, no drama, just us three

Pre-Chorus

Tell me what the clock say we should stop now

Tell me why this night dey feel like forever somehow

Something sweet in your eyes, something real

If na yesterday's promise, then make it feel real

Chorus

Beat won't let us leave, we no wan go home

Sunrise catching our shadows on the floor

Beat won't let us leave, keep me here till light breaks through

Baby, I dey hold you tight like there be nothing to prove

Verse 2

Generator humming but my heart still loud

Candle wax drips slow on the record cover now

Your hand find mine by the kitchen windowpane

Street dey empty but we no wan change lanes

Every little noise outside sound like a melody

Wahala for tomorrow, tonight na only me and thee

Pre-Chorus

Tell me what the clock say we should stop now

Tell me why this night dey feel like forever somehow

Something sweet in your eyes, something real

If na yesterday's promise, then make it feel real

Chorus

Beat won't let us leave, we no wan go home

Sunrise catching our shadows on the floor

Beat won't let us leave, keep me here till light breaks through

Baby, I dey hold you tight like there be nothing to prove

Bridge

Maybe tomorrow I for fear this kind love

But right now am all that my chest can give

No perfect plan na why we still dey dance

Just the way your waist dey fit with mine, make sense

I no know what morning go bring my heart

Na tonight e be the only thing I want

Chorus

Beat won't let us leave, we no wan go home

Sunrise catching our shadows on the floor

Beat won't let us leave, keep me here till light breaks through

Baby, I dey hold you tight like there be nothing to prove
