Every Time I Touch You
Metro Station Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can’t keep my hands to myself
Can’t keep my eyes off you
Let’s set this off right now
Take this the whole night through
Can't wait one minute more
Let’s take it somewhere else
Girl, I don’t mean to push
But I can’t help myself

So let’s turn it up, turn it up
So I can turn you on

Because every time I touch you, oh oh
I gotta get your body, heart, and soul
And every time I touch you, oh oh
Girl, you know I’ll never let you go
Never gonna stop, I'm gonna make you rock, oh!
C’mon, let it drop, I'm gonna make it pop
Because every time I touch you, oh oh
Every time I touch, touch you
Let me touch, touch you, oh!

I got that one-track mind
I move too fast, go slow
I’ll take it down, down, down
Until you’re begging for more

I know just what you need
So let me give it to you
C’mon give it up
I know you want this too

So let’s turn it up (turn it up)
So I can turn you on

Because every time I touch you, oh oh
I gotta get your body, heart, and soul
And every time I touch you, oh oh
Girl, you know I’ll never let you go
Never gonna stop, I'm gonna make you rock, oh!
C’mon, let it drop, I'm gonna make it pop
Because every time I touch you, oh oh
Every time I touch, touch you
Let me touch, touch you, oh!

Tell me where to take this
Where are we gonna go?
Let’s change tonight together
You’ll never be alone

Because every time I touch you, oh oh
I gotta get your body, heart, and soul
And every time I touch you, oh oh
Girl, you know I’ll never let you go
Never gonna stop, I'm gonna make you rock, oh!
C’mon, let it drop, I'm gonna make it pop
Because every time I touch you, oh oh




Every time I touch, touch you
Let me touch, touch you, oh!

Laura Bodewig

James Dowling

stop hating on this song, it is pretty good. on the other side be happy that mason is making music!!!!

Andrew Butler

im glad he is aswell

Sexual Tyrannosaur

Im would say he sampled the song but the song is so repetitive that its literally what he sampled on loops

Sexual Tyrannosaur

@callie scott Its not the tempo or the beat its the notes the only difference being that they have an electronic sound. If you cant hear the same notes from both songs and same note progression then its pointless discussing it with you.

callie scott

@Sexual Tyrannosaur how?! i literally don't hear it at all? cheryl is a british female singer, fight for this love was popular a long time ago, it is a slow song for her voice and does not have the beat that this song has? They are literally completely different? I really doubt metro station even know who cheryl is, vice versa.

Sexual Tyrannosaur

The song itself is just cheryl coles fight for this love though :/

Sonny Andersson

I really like this sound! It has a positive vibe and I also like this video, it's intense!
I was pretty sad when the band broke up, but I think Mason did the right thing by keeping the name and I think the new sound is actually really good.
Metro Station FTW!
