about
I really like songs that have a cool retro feel to them while taking inspiration from the 80s, and that’s the kind of track I was trying to pull off when I started composing this one. It’s got a high-pitched chorus with sultry and whispery vocals that sound really catchy, and the post-chorus section includes cool synths influenced by future bass music, which gives it a modern sound at the same time.
The lyrics deal with “lust” as a theme, but rather than seeing it as a negative thing, I wrote from the point of view of fantasizing about someone and falling for that person without being ashamed of it. I also mentioned certain words like ‘secrets’ that could make the lyrics seem like they talk about cheating, but my main inspiration was actually how LGBTQ people often feel like there’s something wrong with them because they were told liking someone of the same sex is wrong, and sometimes they keep everything a secret out of fear and anxiety over accepting themselves... But the truth is that being who they are is completely okay, and I wanted this song to represent that we can all fantasize about whoever we want.
lyrics
One last dance, give me one last dance
Give me one last dance now
Can you hear me? Are you listening to me?
I got a problem only you can fix
I'm not tired now, we can pull over here
I'll let you take a sneak peak
We don't need to speak
Your body's on fleek now
Days always feel endless
But the nights ain't getting longer, boy
You got me craving for something new
Say my name, take my hand
Let me lead you now
Say my name, take my hand
Let me show you now
We could do it night and day
Come on, no work all play
Baby, let's get physical
I just want that one last dance
Yeah, we can't miss this chance
Baby, let's get physical now
Now-now-now now-now-now
Baby, let's get physical now
Now-now-now now-now-now
Lock the door now, leave 'em all outside
They could hear us, so let's keep it soft
Little secrets no one can find out
I know we're on the same page
Yeah, you want a taste
Your body's on fleek now
I keep thinking of you
Even when I'm not supposed to
I should think of someone else, but I don't
We could do it night and day
Come on, no work all play
Baby, let's get physical
I just want that one last dance
Yeah, we can't miss this chance
Baby, let's get physical now
Now-now-now now-now-now
Baby, let's get physical now
Now-now-now now-now-now
Say my name, take my hand
Let me lead you now
Say my name, take my hand
Let me show you now
We could do it night and day
Come on, no work all play
Baby, let's get physical
I just want that one last dance
Yeah, we can't miss this chance
Baby, let's get physical now
Give me one last dance now
Give me one last dance now
Baby, let's get physical now
One last dance
Give me one last dance now
Give me one last dance now
Baby, let's get physical now
