Turn off the lights,
touch me in the dark,
fade into the feeling,
whisper in my ear
What you want, what you need.
Tell me my name,
tell me my name again
Just yell out my name, baby.

I got your nights, I got your days
I got you on my time

You taste like sweet wine
and we are magnified
The sweat rolls down your thigh,
making moves so blind
It’s what you want, it’s what you need–
I’m just the same, baby

I got your nights, I got your days
I got you on my time

And you’re holding on to me like an old love
that you know every inch of.
when I feel you start to go
I’ll take it slow
until your body’s saying more

I got your nights, I got your days
I got you on my time
You’re gonna be on my time

    My Interpretation:This song is pretty erotic. I think this is just an exclamation of happiness that the narrator has a loved one all to him/herself.

    Lyric Correction:Official lyrics from MTB's website:

    Turn off the lights,
    touch me in the dark,
    fade into the feeling,
    whisper in my ear
    What you want, what you need.
    Tell me my name,
    tell me my name again
    Just yell out my name, baby.

    I got your nights, I got your days
    I got you on my time

    You taste like sweet wine
    and we are magnified
    The sweat rolls down your thigh,
    making moves so blind
    It’s what you want, it’s what you need–
    I’m just the same, baby

    I got your nights, I got your days
    I got you on my time

    And you’re holding on to me like an old love
    that you know every inch of.
    when I feel you start to go
    I’ll take it slow
    until your body’s saying more

    I got your nights, I got your days
    I got you on my time
    You’re gonna be on my time

    General Comment:It's 100% about some great sex!
    "when I feel you start to go
    take it slow, 'til your body's saying more...baby!"
    He's saying that hes playing around with her and teasing....the best way I must add, anyways shes on his time not hers... Love MTB, their songs are so unlike any others. It's great

    General Comment:I got your nights (I got your nights)
    I got your days (I got your days)

    You guys are reading too hard into it. Its obviously about people switching days on a work schedule. He (Jake) is remembering a time in his life where he was prepared to cover a coworkers nights (as well as her days)

    General Comment:there is a song for every memory you will ever have in life...this particular song brings me back to a girl that i would die for...she means the world to me and i know evey part of her and this girl has yet to realize how much she means and always will mean to me. i love her more than anybody or anything, but anyway eveytime i hear this song(which is about evey 30 mins) she is the only thing that rushes into my head and she is all i can think about....thanks MTB for making another great masterpiece i can relate to.

    P.S. I LoVe YoU AsiaN

    General Comment:"Making moves so blind," I'm pretty sure, also, 'we are magnified' seems to be more like 'we are made of fire' but that's just a broad guess. Love this song, it's simpler than the older material but just as delicious
