Genesis

Genesis is the opening song to Dua Lipa’s self titled record. The track employs Biblical references as a metaphor for a passionate love. The album contains quite a few Biblical references in its narrative. It was officially shared on her documentary “See In Blue” as an acoustic version that follows her musical journey leading up to the release of her debut album.

[Verse 1] In the beginning, God created Heaven and Earth For what it's worth, I think that He might've created you first Just my opinion Your body is the one paradise that I wanna fly to Every day and every night [Pre-Chorus] I've been sick and tired of running Chasing all of the flashing lights These late nights don't mean nothing So I just wanna apologize I'm sorry, so sorry I'm sorry, yeah [Chorus] I need your love And I'm dying for the rush 'Cause my heart ain't got enough I need your touch This is getting serious Tell me that it's not the end of us How can we go back to the beginning? How can we go back to the beginning? Without you, I've got no air to breathe in How can we go back to the beginning? [Verse 2] Don't matter what's written We can start all over again, all over again Oh, how can I get you all over my skin? My deep intuition tells me that I'm doing you wrong If I don't come home Just say you forgive me and don't let me go [Pre-Chorus] I've been sick and tired of running Chasing all of the flashing lights These late nights don't mean nothing So I just wanna apologize I'm sorry, so sorry I'm sorry, yeah [Chorus] I need your love And I'm dying for the rush 'Cause my heart ain't got enough I need your touch This is getting serious Tell me that it's not the end of us How can we go back to the beginning? How can we go back to the beginning? Without you, I've got no air to breathe in How can we go back to the beginning? [Bridge] You know I'll roar like a lion for you You know I'll keep trying 'Til the sun starts rising [Chorus] I need your love And I'm dying for the rush 'Cause my heart ain't got enough I need your touch This is getting serious Tell me that it's not the end of us How can we go back to the beginning? How can we go back to the beginning? Without you, I've got no air to breathe in How can we go back to the beginning?
