Move Me by Jhameel x DWNTWN x Giraffage

Move Me by Jhameel x DWNTWN x Giraffage

Jhameel x DWNTWN x Giraffage team up for the music video for their single “Move Me”. The dreamy synth pop track gets an equally hazy ethereal visual feel. In the video, Jhameel and Jamie Leffler of DWNTWN long for each other with their soft sensual voices. The separation from each other is killing them. They just want to be together.

Lyrics to Move Me by Jhameel x DWNTWN x Giraffage

(DWNTWN)
i like the way that you move me
i like the way that you walk the line
i like the way that you move me
i need a man who can make me cry
(i need a girl who can make me die)

(Jhameel)
simple girl fell into the ground
while she saw the world
sigh
and i’m doin the same damn thing
hated by the only one that never was afraid if i
do what you wanted in the
middle of the night i kissed you on the hand
your body is a mortal sin
caught you in the morning
morning when you told me i’m afraid that you’ll be
sick of me
it’s better i leave

(chorus)

(Jhameel)
sad like a sideways bottle on my mind
gimme the time
gimme the chance
take the feelings of my chest
gimme the hope
i figured though
i need more
think of the things that you said
all the times i pushed you
face on my mind
similar eyes
gimme some time
similar ways i fake
similar thoughts i hate
methodical
a miracle
it’s sad to see
some of the thoughts aren’t me

(chorus)

You Had Your Chance by Paul Kim

Lyrics to You Had Your Chance by Paul Kim

Hello there baby How has it been?
It’s been some time since I could call you a friend
When things got hard you left me high and dry
And then when winter came, you flew to southern skies
Baby you, you were the one
But you got scared and decided to run
Well things done changed
And I ain’t the same
And I ain’t never gonna let you play your games

You had your chance
But you threw it all away
So now you can dance all alone for the rest of your days

And I worked my fingers right down to the bone
To make you happy and build a sacred home
But oh you were foolish you must’ve bumped your head
You packed your things and left me
And this is what I said

Where you baby when I needed a friend then
Someone I could count on till the very end
I gave my all just to keep you here
And I don’t even know why I shed them tears
You broke my heart and left me all alone
And now you on the phone beggin me to come home
Well I moved on so I must say goodbye
But you on your knees and you’re wondering why…
