Jamie xx - I Waited All Night

Copied!

{Verse 1: Romy}
Isn't this what you want?
To feel connected to
Somebody on your side
Looking right through
Natural hesitation
Don't wanna be too soon
Why don't you let me follow
The rhythm of you
Would you wanna feel
The rhythm of you

{Pre-Chorus: Romy}
Would you wanna feel it?
Would you wanna feel it?
Would you wanna feel it?
Could I be this close to you?

{Chorus: Romy}

{Verse 2: Oliver Sim}
The room, the light
I waited all night
A smile to die for, something just like yours
Yours, yours
I waited all night for
The thrill unknown
The will of you all
A dream to try for
Hope that you'd like more, more, more
I waited all night for
