lyrics
hi, whats your name?
i saw you walk into my life
oh my, i'm glad i came
completely trapped into those eyes
for once
i'm speechless and without words
my heart
is racing and my vision is blurred
how could
this really be happening
we should
explore what i'm imagining
allured
into feelings without survey
procured
composure and reserve displayed
assured
my confidence without decay
immured
by feeling some kind of way
you got me feeling
got me got me feeling feeling
you got me feeing
got me got me feeling feeling
you got me feeling feeling
got me got me feeling feeling feeling
you got me feeling some kind of way
hey you
you got me feeling some kind of way
yeah it's true
i can't even find the words to say
hey you
you got me feeling some kind of way
yeah i do
hope that you're starting to feel something
even if heaven and earth collide tonight
let's be all alone in a different light
i don't care what the world can see
let's keep this just between you and me
life passes by
as together we share this freeze frame
oh my, let me pry
still i don't even know your name
try without a fight
to let the other one win this game
why not compromise
and embrace the reason why we both came
allured
into feelings without survey
procured
composure and reserved displayed
assured
my confidence without decay
immured
by feeling some kind of way
you got me feeling
got me got me feeling feeling
you got me feeing
got me got me feeling feeling
you got me feeling feeling
got me got me feeling feeling feeling
you got me feeling some kind
hey you
you got me feeling some kind of way
what we should do
is to take this moment to your place
let's stay through
the whole night until the break of day
do you
think that you're starting to feel the same
same same same same
hey you
(you got me feeling, some kind of way)
hey you
(you got me feeling, some kind, some kind of way)
(hey you)
even if heaven and earth collide tonight
let's be all alone in a different light
(hey you)
i don't care what the world can see
let's keep this just between you and me
hey you
you got me feeling some kind of way
what say you
are you starting to feel the same some kind of way?
confession
I had a blast with this collaboration. This instrumental is an original by Charles Sterntorp. At the time he share this song via Facebook looking for a vocalist, we had not known each other then. I offered to give it a shot and if he liked it we can go from there. He had a few other vocalists give their take on the song (vocally) and I was fortunate that mine stood out amongst the rest. This is how we began our friendship - over music and the fact that we both use the same DAW: Reason Studios. Charles lives in Sweden and I live in the US so we did all our work remotely. The entire experience was really great for me. Ever since this song and new found friendship from across the world, I have been confident to reach out other producers / artists to continue my journey of collaborations.
The lyrics? Well when I first heard the instrumental it reminded of that other song "Call me maybe" by Carley Ray Jespen. I used that song as a muse to find my lyrics and melody to this song. The song is about me going to a friends party and seeing a really good looking person walk into the room - some I've never met before. I felt an instant attraction towards them and hoping that by making eye contact they too would feel the same way. The song goes on to share my fantasy about leaving the party to going back to their place for our own party; yeah a party for 2.
