Together
Calvin Harris Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Too fast, and I didn't know
Then a minute toss the daylight
You're here, no way to let go
Don't look back, when you're holding me
'Cause I know what this love was meant to be
One day we're gonna wake up together
We'll find love here together
And it feels so good in my arms
We're gonna wake up together
You won't wanna go home
We'll find love here forever
'Cause we'll wake up together
I got something and it feels right
What I need it to be
You control what you feel for me
I was watching you the whole night
I can never explain how the magic was made
Don't look back, when you're holding me
'Cause I know what this love was meant to be
One day we're gonna wake up together
You won't wanna go home
We'll find love here together
And it feels so good in my arms
We're gonna wake up together
You won't wanna go home
We'll find love here forever
'Cause we'll wake up together
(One day)
You won't wanna go home
And it feels so good in my arms
You won't wanna go home
'Cause we'll wake up together
The lyrics of Calvin Harris's "Together" describe a moment of clarity in a relationship. Initially, the singer is running from what feels right, unsure of the connection they have with the person they're with. However, in a moment of insight, the singer realizes that the love they share is meant to be, and they embrace the relationship fully. The lyrics express the desire to wake up next to each other, to find love together and to never let it go.
The chorus speaks directly to this feeling of togetherness, emphasizing that they will wake up together and never want to leave each other's side. The use of repetition plays into this idea of a cyclical relationship, highlighting the inevitability of the singer and their partner being together forever. The lyrics also suggest that the relationship is magical, something that can't be explained but is nonetheless very real.
The song itself features a laid-back beat with a danceable rhythm. The instrumentation is minimal, with a repeated synth riff and a pulsing bassline. The focus is on Harris's vocals and the lyrics, which are delivered in a straightforward, almost conversational tone. The chorus is catchy and upbeat, creating a sense of optimism and joy that fits the song's message of love and togetherness.

Always running from what feels right
I tend to avoid doing what feels like the right thing to do.
Too fast, and I didn't know
I was moving too quickly and didn't realize it at the time.
Then a minute toss the daylight
Suddenly, it seemed like day turned to night in a matter of moments.
You're here, no way to let go
I'm with you now and I can't imagine ever wanting to leave.
Don't look back, when you're holding me
Let's focus on the present moment and the love we share right now.
'Cause I know what this love was meant to be
I have a strong feeling that our love was destined to happen.
One day we're gonna wake up together
Someday, we'll share a bed and wake up next to each other.
You won't wanna go home
You'll be so content and happy staying with me.
We'll find love here together
We'll explore what it means to be in love with each other.
And it feels so good in my arms
Being close to you brings me immense joy and comfort.
We're gonna wake up together
We will share each other's company in the morning.
We'll find love here forever
Our love will last for all eternity.
