Bangkok After Dark (feat. Kizuna Sato)

[Intro – Kizuna, Close Whisper] [motorcycle passes] [humid street ambience] [khim pluck] [sub-bass rising] Patience, Papi... Bangkok ไม่เคยนอน Bangkok never sleeps. [BEAT DROPS] [Chorus – Kizuna] Bangkok after dark Gold light on your skin เมืองนี้ยังไม่หลับ so where do we begin? Bangkok after dark Bass under my heart You came looking for trouble I said, "ใจเย็นก่อน..." Bangkok after dark Don't lose me in the lights One hand around my waist and the whole city's alive [Post-Chorus – Layered] ช้าๆ Take it slow ช้าๆ Don't let go Bangkok after dark after dark after dark [Verse 1 – Kizuna] Hot night, Sukhumvit rain still on the street Red brake lights moving to the rhythm underneath Gold shining from the rooftops black dress, gold hoops You keep watching my reflection like you know what I'm gonna do Tuk-tuk cutting through the traffic bass shaking every block You say, "Where we going?" Baby— ไม่ต้องถาม Don't ask. Let the city choose the spot. [Pre-Chorus] Come closer อีกนิด Not too fast ใจเย็นสิ You don't need to understand every word I say My body translates. [Chorus] Bangkok after dark Gold light on your skin เมืองนี้ยังไม่หลับ so where do we begin? Bangkok after dark Bass under my heart You came looking for trouble I said, "ใจเย็นก่อน..." Bangkok after dark Don't lose me in the lights One hand around my waist and the whole city's alive [Verse 2 – Rhythmic Dancehall] Midnight turned to two and two became three City moving so fast but you're moving with me No postcards no daylight I want Bangkok like this Wet pavement warm air your hand against my hip Temple gold in the distance neon close to my face Old world, new bass both living in the same place Baby, I don't ask I read body language If you say stop then I stop no panic But you say— [Kizuna – Close Whisper] อย่าหยุด... (yà yùt...) [Beat Pauses] Don't stop. [Beat Returns] With your hand on my chain and that look in your eyes No translation needed when the bass replies ช้าๆ at first then you pull me back close Bangkok taught me something— you don't need words to know [Dance Break] [heavy sub pressure] [Thai percussion answers dancehall drums] [short khim phrase] [Kizuna] ซ้าย... ขวา... Left... right... ช้าๆ, Papi. [Male – Low] Again. [Kizuna] I knew you'd say that. [BUILD – Percussion Rising] [Bridge – Kizuna, Intimate] When morning finds the skyline don't promise me forever Just remember how the city pulled our bodies together คืนนี้ยังอีกยาว The night's not over yet So don't look at the sunrise— look at me instead. [DROP – Final Chorus] Bangkok after dark Gold light on your skin เมืองนี้ยังไม่หลับ and neither are we yet Bangkok after dark Bass under my heart You came looking for trouble— [Kizuna] Now look where we are. Bangkok after dark Don't lose me in the lights One hand around my waist and the whole city's alive [Post-Chorus – Stacked] ช้าๆ Take it slow ช้าๆ Don't let go Bangkok after dark after dark after dark [Outro – Street Ambience] [beat strips to sub + khim] [motorcycle disappearing] [Male – Quiet] Same time tomorrow? [Kizuna – Smiling] ใจเย็นก่อน, Papi. [Last Whisper] Patience.
