Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Take it off
Take it off every little square inch
Whatever you wearing
Turn me on
You turn me on
And I've got a feeling
You feeling the same as I
Girl you got me all night
Where you wanna go right now
We could just ride
Runnin' all the red lights
Do what's in our nature now, cuz

We are who we are
Yeah we are nothing but
No nothing but
We are who we are
Yeah we are
Nothing but human
Ooooh
Ooooh
Ooooh
Nothing but
Nothing but human
Ooooh
Ooooh
Ooooh
Nothing but
Nothing but human

Baby I
Baby I love the way you play me in the right melody
Take your time
All the time
I know when you hold me
You feeling the same as I
Girl you got me all night
Where you wanna go right now
We could just ride
Runnin' all the red lights
Do what's in our nature now, cuz

We are who we are
Yeah we are nothing but
No nothing but
We are who we are
Yeah we are
Nothing but human
Ooooh
Ooooh
Ooooh
Nothing but
Nothing but human
Ooooh
Ooooh
Ooooh
Nothing but
Nothing but human

Power down
Power down
We could shut the world
Shut the world outside
Off the ground
Off the ground
Meet me in the sky
In the sky tonight
Meet me in the sky
In the sky tonight

We are who we are
Yeah we are nothing but
No nothing but
We are who we are
Yeah we are
Nothing but human
Ooooh
Ooooh
Ooooh
Nothing but
Nothing but human
Ooooh
Ooooh
Ooooh
Nothing but
Nothing but human
Ooooh
Ooooh
Ooooh
Ooooh

Line by Line Meaning

Take it off
Strip away all the external barriers that separate us


Take it off every little square inch
Remove every last bit that keeps us apart


Whatever you wearing
No matter what you have on


Turn me on
Stimulate me physically and/or emotionally


You turn me on
You arouse me


And I've got a feeling
I have an intuition


You feeling the same as I
You feel the same way I do


Girl you got me all night
I'm yours for the entire night


Where you wanna go right now
Which direction do you want to take us


We could just ride
We could just explore and enjoy the journey


Runnin' all the red lights
Letting our passion take control, ignoring the rules


Do what's in our nature now, cuz
We're following our natural instincts


We are who we are
We are unique individuals


Yeah we are nothing but
We are simply


No nothing but
Just that, nothing more


Yeah we are
Indeed, that's what we are


Nothing but human
We are just human beings, with all their complexities and imperfections


Baby I
My dear


Baby I love the way you play me in the right melody
I admire how well you complement me


Take your time
Don't rush things


All the time
Every moment


I know when you hold me
When you embrace me


Girl you got me all night
I'm yours for the entire night


Power down
Disconnect from the outside world


We could shut the world
We could isolate ourselves from everything else


Shut the world outside
Forget about everything else that goes on beyond us


Off the ground
Rising above everyday constraints


Meet me in the sky
Join me in a place of freedom and endless possibilities


In the sky tonight
Right now, in this moment


Nothing but human
We are not divine, we are limited and vulnerable
