Face to Face
ATB feat. Stanfour [feat. Stanfour] Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Feels like we're floating up a stream
Looking at a screen
It's like we're going nowhere
I need to see your face
Our photo album plays
Your eyes are like a maze that
Takes me down into cloudy deep blue skies
Deep blue skies

I don't wanna wait until tonight
I'm lost without you
I don't wanna stay up late tonight
Just thinking about you
Don't replace
Face to face
Another message reads
We might be face to face tonight

It feels like we're talking to machines
Touching plastic things
A picture can't replace a face that's beautiful
A rainy day that shines lost in power lines
Connect the wires to our bodies, souls and minds
Souls and minds

I don't wanna wait until tonight
I'm lost without you
I don't wanna stay up late tonight
Just thinking about you
Don't replace
Face to face
Another message reads
We might be face to face tonight

Face to face tonight

Don't replace
Face to face
Another message reads
We might be face to face tonight
I don't wanna wait until tonight
Face to face tonight
I don't wanna stay up late tonight
Just thinking about you
Don't replace
Face to face




Another message reads
We might be face to face tonight

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to ATB feat. Stanfour's song "Face to Face" are reflective of the isolation and detachment that comes with communicating through technology. The song laments the feeling of floating up a stream, looking at a screen and not going anywhere, craving a personal connection rather than talking to machines and touching plastic things. The singer expresses their desire to see the face of the person they're communicating with and longs to connect on a deeper level, beyond wires and screens. The lyrics speak to the human need for personal connection and the frustrations of modern communication.


The metaphor of floating up a stream while looking at a screen is a poignant reflection of the present day's digital age. These lyrics highlight the sense of distance and loneliness that comes with communicating through devices, and the need for genuine in-person interactions. The phrase "connect the wires to our bodies, souls, and minds" represents the longing for human interaction and how people feel disconnected from each other in the virtual world.
