Can't we just talk?
Can't we just talk?
Talk about where we're goin'
Before we get lost
Let me out first
Can't get what we want without knowin'
I've never felt like this before
I apologize if I'm movin' too far
Can't we just talk?
Can't we just talk?
Figure out where we're goin'

Yeah
Started off right
I can see it in your eyes
I can tell that you're wantin' more
What's been on your mind?
There's no reason we should hide
Tell me somethin' I ain't heard before

Oh, I've been dreamin' 'bout it
And it's you I'm on
So stop thinkin' 'bout it

Can't we just talk?
Can't we just talk?

Overall Meaning

The song "Talk" by Disclosure featuring Khalid starts with the same plea repeated twice, "Can't we just talk?". It is the singer asking the listener to have a conversation before they get lost in a relationship. The singer acknowledges that they want something from the relationship, but they don't know what that is yet. They want to know where the relationship is headed before committing themselves.


The verses of the songs reflect the longing of the singer to connect deeply with the person they are singing to. The Singer wants to be open to the other person, and they want the same in return. They want to explore each other's desires, and the Singer wants to satisfy them in every possible way. The Singer is sure that they want to be with the other person because they have been dreaming about them.


In the chorus, the Singer reiterates the need for conversation to figure out where they are going. The bridge indicates that the Singer is en route to meet the other person, and they will open the door for the Singer. Thus, the song conveys a message of honesty and vulnerability in relationships and highlights the importance of communication.
