Keep You Mine
NOTD Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Can we put it out?
'Cause we're both saying things that we're gonna regret and
Every word's too loud
We gotta slow, slow, slow down
Get out alone, lone, lone now
Yeah, we should go, go, go now
Things are always better
When you call me back in a little
When the dust starts to settle
All we need is a little time
To keep me yours and keep you mine
Don't be scared if we're falling
It hurts less in the morning
All we need is a little time
To keep me yours and keep you mine
To keep me yours and keep you mine
There's a cloud in this room and I can't cut the tension
'Cause we lost the knife
In the mountain of dishes that non of us mentioned
We eat out at night
We gotta slow, slow, slow down
Get out alone, 'lone, 'lone now
Yeah, we should go, go, go now
'Cause things are always better
Things are always better
When you call me back in a little
When the dust starts to settle
All we need is a little time
To keep me yours and keep you mine
Don't be scared if we're falling
It hurts less in the morning
All we need is a little time
To keep me yours and keep you mine
To keep me yours and keep you mine
Call me back in a little
When the dust starts to settle
All we need is a little time
To keep me yours and keep you mine
The lyrics of NOTD and Shy Martin's song "Keep You Mine" deal with the aftermath of a fight between two people in a relationship. The opening line refers to a heated fight that has turned physical, with the bedroom catching fire. The song's protagonist realizes that they need to slow down and take time away from each other to cool off, regretting the hurtful words that were exchanged. There's a palpable sense of tension and unease in the room as the two try to navigate their feelings, with the use of metaphors like the "mountain of dishes" representing unresolved issues.
As the chorus begins, the singer asks for a little time to allow the dust to settle and for the two to have space to think. This time apart could be the key to keeping the relationship alive, urging their partner to "call me back in a little" so they can work through their issues. The chorus also offers hope for the future, with the repeated phrases suggesting that they can keep their relationship together despite the difficulties they are facing.
The lyrics of "Keep You Mine" touch on several themes that are common in relationships, such as forgiveness, compromise, and the importance of communication. The song presents relationships as complex endeavors that require hard work, but also offers a sense of hope that these relationships can be repaired even when they seem to be falling apart.

[Verse 1]
Guess we started a fire
Now the bedroom is burning
Can we put it out
Cause we’re both saying things
That we’re gonna regret when
Every word’s too loud
We gotta slow slow slow down
Gotta lay low low low now
Yeah We should go go go now
Cause things are always better
Things are always better when you
[Pre Chorus]
Call me back in a little
When the dust starts to settle
All we need is a little time
To keep me yours and keep you mine
Don’t be scared if we’re falling
It hurts less in the morning
All we need is a little time
To keep me yours and keep you mine
[Chorus]
To keep me yours and keep you mine
[Verse 2]
There’s a cloud in this room
And I can’t cut the tension
Cause we lost the knife

Gotta lay low low low now
Yeah We should go go go now
Cause things are always better
Things are always better when you
[Pre Chorus]
Call me back in a little
When the dust starts to settle
All we need is a little time
