Round and Round
RAT Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Out on the streets, that's where we'll meet
You make the night, I always cross the line
Tightened our belts, abuse ourselves
Get in our way, we'll put you on your shelf
Another day, some other way
We're gonna go, but then we'll see you again
I've had enough, we've had enough
Cold in vain, she said

(Pre-chorus)

I knew right from the beginning
That you would end up winnin'
I knew right from the start
You'd put an arrow through my heart

(Chorus)

Round and round
With love we'll find a way just give it time
Round and round
What comes around goes around
I'll tell you why

Dig

Lookin' at you, lookin' at me
The way you move, you know it's easy to see
The neon light's on me tonight
I've got a way, we're gonna prove it tonight
Like Romeo to Juliet
Time and time, I'm gonna make you mine
I've had enough, we've had enough
It's all the same, she said

(Pre-chorus)

(Chorus)

Yeah!

Solo

Out on the streets, that's where we'll meet
You make the night, I always cross the line
Tightened our belts, abuse ourselves
Get in our way, we'll put you on your shelf

(Chorus)

Round and round
With love we'll find a way just give it time, time, time, time
Round and round
What comes around goes around




I'll tell you why, why, why, why
Round and round

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Rat Attack's "Round and Round" seem to be centered around love and relationships. The song begins with the two lovers meeting out on the streets, indicating that they are not averse to taking risks and are willing to step outside their comfort zones to find love. The line "tightened our belts, abuse ourselves" suggests that the two are already dealing with hardships and challenges that come with being in a relationship. However, this doesn't deter them from pursuing love.


The pre-chorus implies that the singer already knew that they were going to fall in love with the other person, regardless of the risks involved. The line "you'd put an arrow through my heart" seems to suggest that the singer knew that they were going to get hurt in the end, but they were willing to risk it all for love.


The chorus talks about love coming around full circle - what goes around comes around. It suggests that love is a cycle that we must all experience and endure. The line "with love we'll find a way just give it time" indicates that they are patient and willing to wait for love to run its course.


Overall, the lyrics of "Round and Round" suggest that love is not easy, but it is worth fighting for. It requires patience, risk-taking, and endurance.

The 80s are the best. It's what we all listened to right before we graduated.

Good song, lousy video.
