Heart Is King
Swedish House Mafia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Into the streets
We're coming down
We never sleep
Never get tired
Through urban fields
And suburban lights

Turn the crowd up now
We'll never back down
Shoot down the skyline
Watch it on primetime
Turn up the love now
Listen up now, turn up the love

Who's gonna save the world tonight?
Who's gonna bring it back to life?




We're gonna make it, you and I
We're gonna save the world tonight
