Feel It in My Bones
DJ Tiesto Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Blow by blow, i didn't see it coming
blow by blow, sucker punch
rushes in, here to stay
rushes in, you are here to stay
what rushes into my heart and my skull
i can't control, think about it
feel it in my bones
what rushes into my heart and my skull
i can't control

Chorus
I feel you in my bones
you're knocking at my windows
you're slow to lettin me go
and i know this feeling oh, so
this feeling in my bones

left hook, I didn't see it comin
left hook, you've got dead aim
rushes out, run away
rushes out, you always run away
what rushes into my heart and my skull
i can't control, think about it
feel it in my bones
what rushes into my heart and my skull
i can't control

Chorus
i feel you in my bones
you're knocking at my windows
you're slow to letting me go
and i know this feeling oh, so
this feeling in my bones

i feel you in my bones
you're knockin at my windows
you're slow to letting me go
and i know this feeling oh, so
this feeling in my bones

i feel it in my bones
and then my skull feels pressure
i feel it in my bones
i feel it in my skull

Chorus
i feel you in my bones
you're knocking at my windows
you're slow to letting me go
and i know this feeling oh so
this feeling in my bones

I take a breath, take a breath
with me blow by blow
take a break, take a break from you
you are here to stay
i take my heart out of my chest
i just don't need it anymore
take my hand up again
i just don't need it anymore
(repeat)

Chorus
i feel you in my bones
you're knocking at my windows
you're slow to letting me go




and i know this feeling oh so
this feeling in my bones
