Turn It Around
Sub Focus Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't know what they're telling you
But I know we can turn it around
I know I've hurt you, and I've not been true
But I know I can turn it around

A song of desperation, but I'm not letting go
I'll be with you in the hour, I'll be with you
They said we were too young, to keep our love so strong
You said you want devotion, look no further

I don't know what they're telling you
But I know we can turn it around
I know I've hurt you, and I've not been true
But I know I can turn it around

A song of desperation, but I'm not letting go
I'll be with you in the hour, I'll be with you
They said we were too young, to keep our love so strong
You said you want devotion, look no further

Keep our love so
Keep our love so
Keep our love so
Keep our love so
Keep our love so
Keep our love so
Keep our love so
Keep our love so
Keep our love so
Keep our love so
Keep our love so
Keep our love so

It's inside
It's all around you




I'm going to put these arms
All around you

I don't know what they're telling you
But I know we can turn this around
I know I've hurt you and I've not been true
But I know I can turn this around

I saw her desperation but I'm not letting go
I'll be with you in the hour,
I'll be with you
They say we were too young to keep my love so strong
If you say you want devotion, no further

This is incredible man..... i feel bad that you cant hear the quality of this tune. It's just different and you hate that. Not calling you a bad person, just saying, he's opening his horizons, and he wants that with his listeners too.

This song is spreading happiness to the world
