Lovers On The Sun
Sam Martin Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Let's light it up, let's light it up
Until our hearts catch fire
And show the world, a burning light
They've never shined so bright
We'll find a way, we'll find a way
To keep the cold night
From breaking in over the walls
Into the wild side
The hunger satisfies

We're burning up
We might as well be lovers on the sun
We might as well be lovers on the sun
We might as well be lovers on the sun

We'll never know, we'll never know
What stands behind the North
But I got a feeling
It's a feeling that's we're dying for
Just close your eyes, and hold your breath
Because it feels right
We'll keep it moving till we make it to the other side
And let's enjoy the ride

We're burning up
We might as well be lovers on the sun
We might as well be lovers on the sun
We might as well be lovers on the sun

Let's light it up, let's light it up
Until our hearts catch fire




And show the world, a burning light
They've never shined so bright

As he sings about their journey, the singer suggests that they don't know what stands behind the North or what they may find on the other side, but they have a feeling that's worth exploring. He encourages his lover to close their eyes, hold their breath, and embrace the thrill of the ride, because it feels right. In the chorus, they're burning up, and he suggests that they might as well be lovers on the sun, with all the heat and passion that implies. By lighting up their hearts, they can show the world a burning light they've never seen before, shining brighter and hotter than anything else.
