Here We Go!
Dana Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Staring in your eyes
Ten minutes til sunrise
Your hands holding mine
I'm here in yours arms
Getting lost in your charms
Let the world disappear

Can we stay here, forever and ever?
Can we stay here, forever and ever?

Hold me closer
Please can we stay? (Please can we stay?)
Let the fireflies dance
Dance the night away
Hold me closer
Please can we stay?
Can we stay here, forever and ever this way?

The only thing I need
Is to feel you here with me
Staring up at the clouds
Press your lips to mine
You and I could stop time
Just hold me in your arms

Can we stay here, forever and ever?
Can we stay here, forever and ever?

Hold me closer
Please can we stay? (Please can we stay?)
Let the fireflies dance
Dance the night away
Hold me closer
Please can we stay?
Can we stay here, forever and ever this way?
Can we stay here, forever and ever this way?

Hold me closer
Please can we stay? (Please can we stay?)
Let the fireflies dance
Dance the night away
Hold me closer
Please can we stay?
Can we stay here, forever and ever this way?
Can we stay here, forever and ever this way?

Staring in your eyes




Ten minutes til sunrise
Your hands holding mine
