Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You got that look
Like a ticket in your hand
Red velvet heat
And a grin I understand
I come in slow
Kiss the air when you pass by
You say my name
And I lean in, hush, let’s ride
[Pre-Chorus]
Step to the front
Let the room hold its breath
One little touch
And I forget the rest
Your eyes say stay
Mine say don’t let go
Baby, take the cue
And steal the show
[Chorus]
Broadway, Broadway
Put me in your frame
Broadway, Broadway
Say it like my name
Slide me close
Let the whole room sway
Broadway, Broadway
We can run it all night
[Verse 2]
Gold on your skin
Coffee in the afterglow
You move like silk
On a floor that barely knows
I got that grin
When you give me that side-eye
One more spin
Then we vanish into time
[Pre-Chorus]
Step to the front
Let the room hold its breath
One little touch
And I forget the rest
Your lips say now
Mine say don’t let go
Baby, take the cue
And steal the show
[Chorus]
Broadway, Broadway
Put me in your frame
Broadway, Broadway
Say it like my name
Slide me close
Let the whole room sway
Broadway, Broadway
We can run it all night
[Bridge]
[Half-time]
Come a little nearer
Let me read your face
Slow turn, soft laugh
Lose that cautious grace
If the crowd gets loud
We can fade away
Just you, just me
And the aftertaste
[Chorus]
Broadway, Broadway
Put me in your frame
Broadway, Broadway
Say it like my name
Slide me close
Let the whole room sway
Broadway, Broadway
We can run it all night
You got that look
Like a ticket in your hand
Red velvet heat
And a grin I understand
I come in slow
Kiss the air when you pass by
You say my name
And I lean in, hush, let’s ride
[Pre-Chorus]
Step to the front
Let the room hold its breath
One little touch
And I forget the rest
Your eyes say stay
Mine say don’t let go
Baby, take the cue
And steal the show
[Chorus]
Broadway, Broadway
Put me in your frame
Broadway, Broadway
Say it like my name
Slide me close
Let the whole room sway
Broadway, Broadway
We can run it all night
[Verse 2]
Gold on your skin
Coffee in the afterglow
You move like silk
On a floor that barely knows
I got that grin
When you give me that side-eye
One more spin
Then we vanish into time
[Pre-Chorus]
Step to the front
Let the room hold its breath
One little touch
And I forget the rest
Your lips say now
Mine say don’t let go
Baby, take the cue
And steal the show
[Chorus]
Broadway, Broadway
Put me in your frame
Broadway, Broadway
Say it like my name
Slide me close
Let the whole room sway
Broadway, Broadway
We can run it all night
[Bridge]
[Half-time]
Come a little nearer
Let me read your face
Slow turn, soft laugh
Lose that cautious grace
If the crowd gets loud
We can fade away
Just you, just me
And the aftertaste
[Chorus]
Broadway, Broadway
Put me in your frame
Broadway, Broadway
Say it like my name
Slide me close
Let the whole room sway
Broadway, Broadway
We can run it all night
Style of Music
R&B with jazzy neo-soul swing and a laid-back disco pulse; lo-fi bass glides under brushed percussion and walking electric keys. Verse 1 stays close-mic and sparse, pre-chorus adds filtered horns and claps, chorus opens with stacked male doubles and silky ad-libs. Bridge drops to bass and snaps, then final chorus blooms with sax licks, hand percussion, and short delay throws. Intimate, smoky, and glossy in the mix., jazzy, deep, disco, r&b, smooth jazz, soulful, jazz, funk, broadway, groovy, pop
