Put Your Hands Up
Kylie Minogue Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But no one's looking in my eyes
It takes a minute when I'm in these different places
To realize
All we need is love in this life--it's true
All I need is the love I get from you
And I want to scream it out
Put your hands up
If you feel love tonight
If you feel love
Now put your hands up
If you feel love tonight
If you feel love
No matter what we're gonna take this moment
Now, come on, baby, you can show me
So put your hands up
If you feel love tonight
If you feel love
Everybody knows how life can get so twisted
But I won't let it bring me down
There's no point in ever trying to resist it
Just work it out
All we need is love in this life--it's true
All I need is the love I get from you
So put your hands up
If you feel love tonight
If you feel love
Now put your hands up
If you feel love tonight
If you feel love
No matter what we're gonna take this moment
Now, come on, baby, you can show me
So put your hands up
If you feel love tonight
If you feel love
If you call it out tonight
Let me hear it now
Said, if you call it out tonight
Let me hear it
Now put your hands up
If you feel love
Now put your hands up
If you feel love
So put your hands up
If you feel love tonight
If you feel love
Now put your hands up
If you feel love tonight
If you feel love
No matter what we're gonna take this moment
Now, come on, baby, you can show me
So put your hands up
If you feel love tonight
If you feel love

Look around, I see a million different faces
I am surrounded by many different people
But no one's looking in my eyes
But nobody seems to genuinely care about me

It takes some time for me to adjust to my surroundings
To realize
But eventually I do
All we need is love in this life--it's true
Love is the most important thing in life
All I need is the love I get from you
The love I get from you is all I need

Everybody knows how life can get so twisted
Everyone knows life can be challenging

We need to find a solution
