Vegas Lyrics – Kehlani
Vegas Lyrics
[Intro: Kehlani]
What happens here stays here
It's just like Vegas
[Verse 1: Kehlani]
Take my keys if you don't want tequila driving
I'm trying to ghost ride that face like I just got my license
I'm feeling risky, how far can we take it?
It's giving real rockstar lifestyle, I might do not make it
[Pre-Chorus: Kehlani]
You hit me like a drive by (By) in the dive bar (Bar)
I think you crazy (Yeah), you say we both are (Are)
And we crashed the car, and we made love
You're a wild card, laying face up
And while the world is on fire
We're getting high making love
[Chorus: Kehlani]
What happens here stays here
It's just like Vegas
What happens here stays here
It's just like Vegas
[Verse 2: Kehlani]
And I understand you, nobody else has seen this side (Seen this side)
You wear your heart like a tattoo
Still wouldn't pick you in a fist fight (Pick you in a fist fight)
And even in bad moods, you're just an angel in a disguise
And can't nobody meet you there, it's why you try to keep me here
[Pre-Chorus: Kehlani]
I remember the drive by (By) in the dive bar (Bar)
I think you crazy (Yeah), but we both are (Are)
And we crashed the car, and we made love
You're a wild card, laying face up
And baby the world’s on fire
And we're getting high on our love
[Chorus: Kehlani]
What happens here stays here
It's just like Vegas (Oh, oh-oh)
What happens here stays here
It's just like Vegas
[Bridge: Kehlani]
And I'm feeling lucky (Woah, woah)
Yeah I'm feeling lucky (Woah, woah)
What happens here stays here, it's just like Vegas
When it's home tonight, I'm thinking maybe
Lose it all on you, the risk I'm taking
Yesterday we was breaking up, now we back here making love
What's understood ain't gotta be explained
[Outro: Kehlani]
All up on ya
And I'm spending all my chips on ya
'Til the morning, I'ma strip for ya
'Til the morning, I'ma strip on ya
All up on ya
And I'm spending all my chips on ya
'Til the morning, I'ma strip for ya
'Til the morning, I'ma strip on ya
Uh-uh-uh-uh, on ya
And I'm spending all my chips on ya
'Til the morning, I'ma chips for ya
'Til the morning, I'ma strip on ya
Uh-uh-uh-uh, on ya
And I'm spending all my chips on ya
'Til the morning, I'ma strip for ya
'Til the morning, I'ma strip on ya
Uh-uh-uh-uh, on ya
Vegas Lyrics Meaning
The lyrics of "Vegas" by Kehlani is a song that captures the essence of a wild, passionate, and tumultuous relationship. The lyrics paint a picture of two people who are deeply attracted to each other, experiencing intense moments of love, chaos, and spontaneity. The metaphor of Las Vegas, known for its nightlife, gambling, and the famous phrase "what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas," is used to describe the secrecy and intensity of their relationship. It's about living in the moment, taking risks, and embracing the unpredictability of their connection.
[Verse 1]
Kehlani talks about wanting to take risks and live freely with her partner. The mention of "take my keys if you don't want tequila driving" suggests a night of heavy drinking and partying, implying a carefree and potentially reckless behavior. She wants to "ghost ride" their relationship, meaning she wants to take it to the extreme without any inhibitions, just like a new driver eager to explore the limits.
[Pre-Chorus]
The pre-chorus compares the intense impact of their relationship to a drive-by shooting in a dive bar, emphasizing the sudden and powerful nature of their encounters.

Their love-making is a passionate and reckless act, paralleling the unpredictable and wild aspects of a rockstar lifestyle.
[Chorus]
The chorus reiterates the theme that their intense and private moments are like those in Las Vegas: thrilling, secretive, and unspoken to the outside world. It’s a reaffirmation of the private nature of their relationship and the unique experiences they share.
[Verse 2]
Kehlani reveals a deeper understanding of her partner, seeing sides of them that no one else does. Her partner wears their heart on their sleeve, showing vulnerability and strength, even though they might not be the first choice in a confrontation. This verse highlights the depth of their connection, where despite any mood swings or tough times, they remain angels in disguise to each other.
[Bridge]
In the bridge, Kehlani expresses a feeling of luck and excitement. She's willing to take risks, metaphorically betting all her chips on her partner. Despite their ups and downs, they keep coming back to each other, suggesting a deep, unexplainable bond. The bridge highlights the cyclical nature of their relationship, where they break up and reconcile, understanding each other without needing to explain.
[Outro]
The outro reinforces her commitment and attraction to her partner, spending all her emotional resources ("chips") on them.
