When Can We
KYLE Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
While the years keep slippin' away
Holding close to the vest and excusing myself from living my best days
But now the words are flowing, and the music's going
I'm meeting them both on the way
And when we get together
There ain't no other place to be
Me and my baby both work all day, halfway into the night
You know I barely get to see daylight
But once she gets home and our troubles are gone, I know it's 'bout to be alright
Cause when we get together
There ain't no other place to be
I said, when we get together
There ain't no other place to be
So tell me why can't I place it
When I'm traveling through time and space just thinking
If I could get everybody that I want to, in the same room
Bring back the good memories
When we get together
There ain't no other place to be
I went down to Texas
And Texas made me see
That it never would matter how far we scatter from Texas to Tennessee
Me and my friends are gonna do it again
If you need a little company
When we get together
There Ain't no other place to be
So tell me why can't I place it
When I'm traveling through time and space just thinking
If I could get everybody that I want to, in the same room
Bring back the good memories
When we get together
There ain't no other place to be
We've lost so many people, and I know that we all have to leave
But knowing don't make it any easier, no matter what you believe
But I believe there's light across the other side
And again, one day we will meet
And when we get together
There ain't no other place to be
When we get together
There ain't no other place to be

Line by Line Meaning
When we are dancing and you're dangerously near me
When we dance and you're close to me, my mind starts to wander
I get ideas, I get ideas
I start to have different thoughts and desires
I want to hold you so much closer than I dare to
I desire to hold you closer than what may be socially acceptable
I want to scold you 'cause I care more than I care to
I want to express my feelings to you but I am afraid of how you might react
And when you touch me and there's fire in every finger
Your touch sets my body ablaze and ignites my passions
I get ideas, yes, I get ideas
I get all sorts of ideas and desires when we are intimate
And after we have kissed goodnight and still you linger
Even though we have said goodnight, you still stick around
I kinda think you get ideas too
I think you have similar desires and ideas as me
Your eyes are always saying the things you're never saying
Your eyes give away your emotions that you are not verbally expressing
I only hope they're saying that you could love me too
I hope that your eyes are telling me that you have feelings for me
For that's the whole idea; it's true
That's the main concept behind everything that's happening, it's real
Lovely idea that I'm falling in love with you
It's a beautiful concept that I am falling for you
And after we have kissed goodnight and still you linger
Even though we have said goodnight, you still stick around
Babe, I kinda think you get ideas too
I think you are feeling the same way I am
