24 Hours
Shawn Mendes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All it'd take is twenty-four hours
Sign the check and the place is ours
It's a little soon but I wanna come home to you

I don't know how this'll go
I promise that I'll love you so
I'll bet it all on me and you
I'll bet it all, you're bulletproof

Let's throw away our backup plans
And people might not understand
Who cares about if they approve
I'd face them all to be with you

All it'd take is twenty-four hours
Sign the check and the place is ours
It's a little soon but I wanna come home to you
All it'd take is twenty-four hours
We could dance, you could throw the flowers
It's a little soon but I wanna come home to you

I heard that once a wise man said
"Only fools go rushing in"
But I'm not the type to overthink
When something feels so right
And I promise I mean every word
I'll paint the world that you deserve
Every color you'd imagine
I can't wait for it happen

'Cause all it'd take is twenty-four hours
Sign the check and the place is ours
It's a little soon but I wanna come home to you
All it'd take is twenty-four hours
We could dance, you could throw the flowers
It's a little soon but I wanna come home to you

Heard that once a wise man said
"Only fools go rushing in"
But I'm not the type to overthink (I'm not the type)
I'm not the type to overthink

All it'd take is twenty-four hours
Sign the check and the place is ours
It's a little soon but I wanna come home to you
All it'd take is twenty-four hours




Sign the check and the place is ours
It's a little soon but I wanna come home to you

Traduccion:

Todo lo que tomaría son 24 horas
Firme el cheque y el lugar es nuestro
Es un poco pronto
Pero quiero volver a casa contigo
No sé, ¿cómo te va?
Te prometo que te amo
Así que apostaré todo por mí y tú
Apostaré todo, tú ' re a prueba de balas
Desechemos nuestros planes de respaldo
Y la gente quizás no entienda
¿A quién le importa lo que aprueban?
Los enfrentaría a todos para estar contigo
Todo lo que se necesita son 24 horas
Firma el cheque y el lugar es nuestro
Es un poco pronto
Pero quiero volver a casa contigo
Todo lo que tomaría son 24 horas
Podríamos bailar, podrías tirar las flores
Es un poco pronto
Pero quiero volver a casa contigo
Escuché que una vez un hombre sabio dijo
'Solo los tontos entran corriendo'
Pero no soy del tipo que piensa demasiado
Cuando algo se siente tan bien

Pinto el mundo que te mereces
Cada color que imaginas
No puedo esperar a que suceda porque
Todo lo que tomaría son 24 horas
Firme el cheque y el lugar es nuestro
Es un poco pronto
Pero quiero volver a casa contigo
Todo lo que hizo toma son 24 horas
Podríamos bailar, podrías tirar las flores
Es un poco pronto
Pero quiero volver a casa contigo
Escuché que una vez un hombre sabio dijo
'Solo los tontos entran corriendo'
Pero yo no soy del tipo que piensa demasiado
No soy del tipo que piensa demasiado
Todo lo que tomaría son 24 horas
Firme el cheque y el lugar es nuestro
Es un poco pronto
Pero quiero volver a casa contigo
Todo lo que necesitas es 24 horas
Firma el cheque y el lugar es nuestro
Es un poco pronto
Pero quiero volver a casa contigo

Shawn literally states that he doesn't care what people think about him and Camila. He's aware that some people don't approve, that they think it's all for press. But he says in this song that he doesn't care, he just wants to be able to go home to Camila. They're so lucky to have each other. They are perfect together, and nobody can change my mind.
