lyrics
[Extended Instrumental Intro]
[Female Vocal – Soft]
Eh-eh
Come closer
Let the night unfold
[Male Vocal]
City lights are dancing on your skin
One little smile and the night begins
You move so easy, you pull me near
The bass rolls deeper when you’re right here
[Female Vocal]
Your voice is low like a midnight song
I feel that rhythm pulling me along
No need to hurry, no need to speak
Let the drums say what we both feel
[Pre-Chorus – Duet]
Step by step, we lose the distance
Heartbeat answering the sound
Hold me close, stay in this moment
Let the whole world fade around
[Chorus – Duet]
Slow fire, burning in the night
Your rhythm moving next to mine
Slow fire, take me by the hand
We don’t need a word to understand
Slow fire, under Lagos lights
Two hearts turning with the tide
Slow fire, closer, skin to skin
Let the beautiful night begin
[Instrumental Afro House Groove]
[Male Vocal]
Your eyes are speaking, I know the signs
Your hand finds mine and the stars align
The moon hangs low, the air feels warm
I want to stay here inside this song
[Female Vocal]
You make me laugh, you make me sway
I want to dance with you till day
No promises we don’t have to make
Just this sweet fire we share tonight
[Pre-Chorus – Duet]
Step by step, we lose the distance
Heartbeat answering the sound
Hold me close, stay in this moment
Let the whole world fade around
[Chorus – Duet]
Slow fire, burning in the night
Your rhythm moving next to mine
Slow fire, take me by the hand
We don’t need a word to understand
Slow fire, under Lagos lights
Two hearts turning with the tide
Slow fire, closer, skin to skin
Let the beautiful night begin
[Duet Hook – Repeated]
Slow fire, slow fire
Your rhythm next to mine
Slow fire, slow fire
Let the night take its time
[Extended Instrumental Break]
[Bridge – Female Vocal]
When the morning paints the sky
Will you still be by my side?
[Bridge – Male Vocal]
When the drums are fading low
You’ll be the rhythm that I know
[Final Chorus – Duet]
Slow fire, burning in the night
Your rhythm moving next to mine
Slow fire, take me by the hand
We don’t need a word to understand
[Extended Instrumental Outro]
Eh-eh
Slow fire
Me and you
Under Lagos skies
[Female Vocal – Soft]
Eh-eh
Come closer
Let the night unfold
[Male Vocal]
City lights are dancing on your skin
One little smile and the night begins
You move so easy, you pull me near
The bass rolls deeper when you’re right here
[Female Vocal]
Your voice is low like a midnight song
I feel that rhythm pulling me along
No need to hurry, no need to speak
Let the drums say what we both feel
[Pre-Chorus – Duet]
Step by step, we lose the distance
Heartbeat answering the sound
Hold me close, stay in this moment
Let the whole world fade around
[Chorus – Duet]
Slow fire, burning in the night
Your rhythm moving next to mine
Slow fire, take me by the hand
We don’t need a word to understand
Slow fire, under Lagos lights
Two hearts turning with the tide
Slow fire, closer, skin to skin
Let the beautiful night begin

音樂風格
Sensual, melodic Afro House, 123 BPM, same sonic palette as a cohesive Afro House album: deep four-on-the-floor kick, rolling warm bass, hypnotic organic African percussion, hand drums, shakers, subtle talking drum accents, atmospheric pads and elegant plucked synth motifs. Long DJ-friendly instrumental intro and outro, gradual layered build, deep hypnotic club groove. Smooth warm male lead vocal with natural West African English inflection and soulful expressive female lead vocal with natural West African English inflection. Clear diction, intimate call-and-response verses, blended duet harmonies and a memorable repeated hook. Passionate, romantic, elegant, uplifting and danceable. Keep the groove consistent throughout; no Afrobeats, no pop beat, no rap, no exaggerated accents.
