Small Small Dance With Me

Verse

Light don go, generator dey hum

Radio low, na so the night begin

Bare feet dey cool for the veranda tile

Candle wax dripping slow like your smile

You close your eyes, hand hold my shirt

Waist beads shifting under your skirt

No need for speed, no need for noise

Just me and you and the generator's voice

Pre-Chorus

So tell me, tell me, why we dey rush

Stay small, stay close, keep the hush

Feel my heartbeat, count it slow

I got time, I got time, o

Chorus

Small small dance with me

Small small, under the moonlight tree

No hurry, no hurry, let the night agree

Small small dance with me

Verse

Harmattan dust settle soft on your hair

Palm frond shadow dey paint the air

Your hand find my chest, I feel your ring

Anklet dey chime like a quiet thing

We turn one circle, then turn again

Same small step like we counting rain

Distant market, the noise dey fade

Just your breath and the sound we made

Pre-Chorus

So tell me, tell me, why we dey rush

Stay small, stay close, keep the hush

Feel my heartbeat, count it slow

I got time, I got time, o

Chorus

Small small dance with me

Small small, under the moonlight tree

No hurry, no hurry, let the night agree

Small small dance with me

Bridge

Forget the big floor, forget the crowd

This tiny space, we don't need loud

Just your forehead resting on my chin

Small small love, but it run so deep within

Chorus

Small small dance with me

Small small, under the moonlight tree

No hurry, no hurry, let the night agree

Small small dance with me
