Lyrics[edit | edit source]

I saw sugar there, dancing in the sweet air
When my eyes began to hurt
I spun sugared air, twisted up in your hair
That you’d burn before you’d flirt
Spinning, I must, Dulcería
You’re so cool that our tongues got stuck

In from the storm, where the norm is perverse
Well-acted porn’s getting worse
I love you more, here on the floor

Inhaled sugar there, dancing through the sweet air
‘Til our breath began to quake
I took several takes, melting in the cold air
And yеt I gave you the shakes
Spinning for you, 'causе you’re so cool
You’re so cool that our tongues got stuck

In from the storm, where the norm is perverse
Well-acted porn’s getting worse
I love you more, here on the floor

It took only a single take for me to melt upon the floor
And I gave you the shakes, the shakes
It took only a single take for me to melt upon the floor
You still give me the shakes, I shake

I love you more, here on the floor
Here on the floor, I love you more
I love you more
