Stop the World
Max.Well Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Seems like the moment has come and I'm gonna get you girl
The shadows are forming across your parts the vision looks absurd
No one around to interrupt the feelings, you stir babe
[Chorus]
Imagine if it was, if this was you, if this was I
So perfectly designed to be here all night
The world stops for me, the world stops for me
And then extraordinary, ordinary things
Things I can't explain, with subtext, the world stops for me
And girl you know just what I mean, I need you girl
Sing me a song, sing it soft, sing it long, girl stop my world, oh
[Chorus]
Someone stop the world, stop it, stop it, stop
Someone, someone stop the world, stop the world
We about to stop the world tonight
We're about to love we ain't got no worries, no battles
I'm gonna be with my girl tonight
We about to stop the world, stop the world, stop the world
We about to stop the world tonight
We're about to love we ain't got no worries, no battles
You are my own, yeah
We about to stop the world tonight
Make yourself at home
I'm gonna be with my girl tonight
And lay here all night long
We about to stop the world tonight
Oh yeah
In Max.Well's song "Stop the World," the singer expresses a desire to escape the chaos and distractions of the world and focus solely on the person he loves. He asks for someone to "stop the world" so that he can be fully present with his partner. The use of "shadows" and "absurd vision" paints a picture of the world encroaching on their intimate moment, and the lack of interruption from anyone else adds to the intensity of the moment. The chorus suggests that being with this person is so perfect that the world around them fades away, and only their love exists. The singer admits that he can't explain the way he feels in this moment, but it's clear that he needs his partner and wants to be with them.
The bridge of the song reinforces the idea that their love is extraordinary and special, even if it can't be fully articulated. The repetition of "stop the world" highlights the singer's urgency and desperation to focus on their love and nothing else. The final verse and chorus reaffirm the idea that the singer and his partner are the most important things in their world, and they plan to spend the night appreciating each other without any distractions.
