This Town
J.R. Vautour Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It covers all this washed up town
And as for you
It makes you glow
I see a light that shines on you
It lights the dark that you walk through
And as for me
You're all I need
Take my hand, we will be okay
Trade the old for something new
Because the best part of this town
Is you
I see a life for us two
A way to make our dreams come true
I swear to you
We can have it all
Let's leave this place, go far away
Take my hand, we will be okay
Trade the old for something new
Because the best part of this town
Is you
You deserve so much more
Than what you've had before
It's just you and me
I see the rain falling down
It covers all this washed up town
We won't look back
And we can go
The song "This Town" by J.R. Vautour is all about escaping the confines of one's hometown and exploring new horizons. The lyrics tell of a desire to break free from the monotony of everyday life and see what the world has to offer. The opening lines speak of a desire to understand one another's world and dreams, and the longing for adventure. The desire to be anywhere and experience everything is a theme that recurs throughout the song.
The chorus speaks of the power of the crowd and the collective spirit of the people in the town. The call to stand up, put your worries down, and take the town is a rallying cry for everyone to come together and make something of their lives. The song emphasizes the importance of community, and how much can be accomplished when people work together towards a common goal.
The final lines of the song are a call to action, urging listeners to take their lives into their own hands and make their dreams come true. The repetition of the phrase "we're taking on the world today" emphasizes the power of collective action and the determination to make a difference in the world.

In the morning wake me up
Please wake me up in the morning
And tell me everything
And let me know all about it
So I can understand your world
So that I could understand your perspective
And you can understand my dream
And you could comprehend my goals
Yeah I could be anywhere
I could be anywhere in the world
And you could be there with me
And you could be there beside me
But I just want to be a ghost
But I prefer to be unnoticed
And see everything
And watch everything that happens
I don't want it to be the way they want it
I do not want it to be as per their plans
This town, this night, this crowd
This city, tonight, and gathered people
Come on put them up, let me hear it loud
Come on, raise your hands and shout
Stand up on your feet put your worry down
Stand on your feet and forget your concerns
And everyone of you all around
And all of you that are around here
Let's take this town
Let's take control of this city
It's better that we keep this close
It's better if we keep this private
Keep you close to me
I want to keep you near me
Walking under every sky
Walking under all the skies
Over every sea
Crossing every sea
You can be my modern girl
You can be my modern significant other
And I can be the one you found
And I can be the one you discovered
If we're taking on the world today
If we are battling the world today
I know we got to leave this town
I am aware that we have to exit this town
Come on yall let's take it down
Let's take down the town
On our own let's get away
Let's escape by ourselves
Nothing more left here to see
There is nothing left to see here
Come on love make it perfect
Come on love, let's make it ideal
More and more I will believe
I will believe more and more
Like a child I must believe
I must believe like a child
Come on y'all make it worth it
Come on, everyone, make it worthwhile
Everyone of you in this crowd
All of you present in this crowd
We're taking on the world today
We are challenging the world today
Come on put them up, and every one of you all around
Come on, raise your hands, and all of you around
We can be anyway, take this town
We can be anywhere, let's take over this city
Come on y'all let's take it
Let's take the town, everyone

If this was in 1998 why wasn’t “don’t mean maybe” single on his “new me” album?
