Here on Earth
Tiësto Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That you want to hear, and you want to hear again
And the closer that you get, with the force of all the weight
And it's also clear, do you want to feel her
Want to feel her, want to feel her
For as long as you are, here on this earth
For as long as you are, here on this earth
I feel alive
And you take your time, because we've got all night
Saturday or nothing, we can do what we want
I'm a sucker for your game, it's the way you tease
And it's so unreal, when we touch the ceiling
For as long as you are, here on this earth
I feel alive
For as long as you are, here on this earth
I feel alive
Make it so, it shakes your heart
Nice and slow, but can you let it go
And you feel life fall away, and you have no fear
And you let it go, just let it go
And you feel life fall away, and you have no fear
Can you let it go, let it go
For as long as you are, here on this earth
I feel alive
Feel alive, feel alive, feel alive, feel alive
Feel alive, feel alive, feel alive, feel alive

Line by Line Meaning
And the sun has fallen, and the backbeat's telling truths
The night has come, and the music is speaking the honest truth
That you want to hear, and you want to hear again
The words are so captivating, you can't help but listen to them repeatedly
And the closer that you get, with the force of all the weight
As you approach, the intensity of the moment becomes more overwhelming
And it's also clear, do you want to feel her
It's evident that your desire to feel her is strong
Want to feel her, want to feel her
You desire to feel her touch so intensely, the thought repeats in your mind
For as long as you are, here on this earth
I feel alive
As long as you exist, I feel a sense of vitality and enthusiasm for life
And you take your time, because we've got all night
There's no need to rush, we have endless time to spend together
Saturday or nothing, we can do what we want
We have complete freedom to do anything we desire
I'm a sucker for your game, it's the way you tease
I'm powerless to resist your seductive tactics
And it's so unreal, when we touch the ceiling
The experience is surreal and breathtaking, like reaching the highest possible point
Make it so, it shakes your heart
Let the experience be so profound, it moves you emotionally
Nice and slow, but can you let it go
Take your time, but can you let go of any lingering inhibitions?
And you feel life fall away, and you have no fear
You're able to forget about everything else and feel completely unafraid
And you let it go, just let it go
Allow yourself to experience the moment without any resistance or hesitation
Can you let it go, let it go
Can you release any fears or doubts and fully embrace the moment?
Feel alive, feel alive, feel alive, feel alive
Feel alive, feel alive, feel alive, feel alive
The feeling of being alive is so intense, it's worth repeating over and over again.
