This Time
Axwell /\ Ingrosso Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This time, we can't go home
This time, we can't go home
This time, we can't go home
This time, we can't go home

This time, this time we can't go home

This time, this time we can't go home
I could hang my hat anywhere
I could start, I could finish here
It's the spark of a millionaire
Remind yourself, it's like magic
It's not average, it's more tragic
More tribal, more savage
In a world where you're surrounded by the plastic
Free your mind and just lose it
No test drive, just do it
This murder is so accidental
Us building is so monumental
Got me in my zone
Had to do my own
That put me in my throne
But this time, this time we can't go home

This time, we can't go home
This time, we can't go home
This time, we can't go home
This time, we can't go home
This time, we can't go home
This time, we can't go home
This time, we can't go home

This time, this time we can't go
This time, this time we can't go

This time, we can't go home
This time, we can't go home
This time, we can't go home
This time, this time we can't go
This time, we can't go home (this time, this time we can't go)
This time, we can't go home (this time, this time we can't go)




This time, we can't go home (this time, this time we can't go)
This time, we can't go

The real Lyric is :

This time, this time we can't go home
I could hang my hat anywhere
I could start, I could finish here
It's the spark of a millionaire
Remind yourself, it's like magic
It's not average, it's more tragic
More tribal, more savage
In a world where you're surrounded by the plastic
Free your mind and just lose it
No test drive, just do it
This murder is so accidental
Us building is so monumental
Got me in my zone
Had to do my own
That put me in my throne
But this time, this time we can't go home

I might be anyone
A lone fool out in the sun
Your heartbeat of solid gold
I love you, you'll never know

When the daylight comes you feel so cold,
You know
I'm too afraid of my heart to let you go

-

By the way, that's a really really massive track! Can't wait for Axel's birthday at Where's The Party in Lisbon!!
