“Rewind” is a song from Kelela’s Hallucinogen EP, debuted on Zane Lowe’s Beats 1 show as a #WorldRecord.
The singer has this to say about the song:
It speaks to the narcotic that is loving someone. It makes you exhilarated, it makes you feel drained, it’s in your body and it affects you so comple...
[Verse 1]
Since that day you're all I think about
Thought you were impossible 'til now
You're with me wherever I wake up
I'll take my chances, I know that I'm falling
I'm best when I'm next to you
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I'm heating up, are you reading my mind?
I know that I'm stalling, don't leave me behind
I'm still on the run, you don't know where I hide
I'm giving you eyes, but you misread the signs
[Chorus]
And I can't rewind, baby
I'll search anywhere for you
And I can't rewind, baby
Don't blink when I'm watching you
And I can't rewind
[Verse 2]
Watch you from afar, I just can't stop (But I can't stop staring)
Had the words but then they slipped my mind (Now I can't remember)
Every time we lock eyes all the lights fade out
I'm getting stage fright, when you walk up to me
Boy, you're over the line
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I'm heating up, are you reading my mind?
I know that I'm stalling, don't leave me behind
I'm still on the run, you don't know where I hide
I'm giving you eyes, but you misread the signs
[Chorus]
And I can't rewind, baby
I'll search anywhere for you
And I can't rewind, baby
Don't blink when I'm watching you
And I can't rewind
[Bridge]
If I weren't brown, I'd be blushing
This ain't a mystery, I'm tryin' to keep my cool
You standing next to me, I'm about to break the rules
Turn my head to the right, now I'm looking for you
[Chorus]
For the rest of the night
And I can't rewind
For the rest of the night
I can't rewind
Rewind, baby
I'll search anywhere for you
And I can't rewind, baby
Don't blink when I'm watching you
And I can't rewind
[Outro]
For the rest of the night
And I can't rewind
For the rest of the night
I can't rewind
For the rest of the night
And I can't rewind
Oh, no, no, baby
The rest of the night
I can't rewind
The rest of the night
And I can't rewind
Can't rewind
I can't rewind
Don't blink when I'm watching you
