about
Dynamite is a song about that magical feeling of meeting someone special for the first time and leaning into wherever the night takes you. There are some spicy connotations on the surface of the lyrics but there’s a deeper emotional nakedness and vulnerability to the song as well.
For me, Dynamite is a warm summer night. There’s that initial 'slow-burn' as you’re unravelling each other, trying to figure out what the other person is thinking. The spark between you ignites, you’re "coming undone at the seams" and then everything lights up and the night explodes!
Dynamite's meaningful passion and romance rings true, a resonating nostalgia about youth and young-adulthood. Dynamite is a universal feeling and experience that no matter what your age or background, we have all craved or still crave this connection in our lives. Ultimately that’s what Dynamite boils down to, forgetting about everything, letting go and just enjoying the moments life brings!
lyrics
It's getting close to midnight
You got me stuck on you
Caught me in your headlights
Drive me crazy, nothing I can do
Floating around like fireflies
We'll see the whole night through
Glowing in the moonlight
Your head down to your shoes
Take me home, let's mess around
Get lost for hours so we can't be found, yeah
Domino, you're gonna knock me down
Let the pieces fall and be my wrecking ball tonight
Light me up like dynamite...
Light me up like dynamite!
Dynamite!
We're getting kinda tongue tied now
Acting like it's New Year's Eve
Losing control we're so strung out
And coming undone at the seams
All our clothes scattered around
Unraveling everything there is to be found
Domino, you're gonna knock me down
Let the pieces fall and be my wrecking ball tonight
Light me up like dynamite!
Dynamite!
Light me up like dynamite!
You're always blowing my mind
Nothing to lose
Ignite my fuse
Take me home, let's mess around
Get lost for hours so we can't be found, yeah!
All our clothes scattered around
Unraveling everything there is to be found
Domino, you're gonna knock me down
Let the pieces fall and be my wrecking ball tonight
And light me up like dynamite!
Dynamite!
Oh! Light me up like dynamite!
You're always blowing my mind
Nothing to lose
Ignite my fuse
Light me up like dynamite!
