We the Kings Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My hands are tied, giving in
I know you can't see
But trust me
Believe
'Cause we're on the beach
Side by side
The moonlight, the waves
Chasing our feet
Take me down
My heart beats faster when I'm with you
'Cause I know that you, you want me too
I swear to hell I'll never leave
'Cause I know one thing
Love is all we need
Let's live tonight like our last
We'll streak through the town, living fast
'Cause naked we came
So, naked we leave
And we saw the world dying down
So we lived it up, stole the crown
And now we are free
Let's get out and breathe
Take me down
My heart beats faster when I'm with you
'Cause I know that you, you want me too
I swear to hell I'll never leave
'Cause I know one thing
Love is all we need
Are you ready?
We'll do this together
We'll make this forever
I know you don't want me to go
I can see you were waiting for me
You got love in your eyes
Now it's time to lose all our control
We're on the beach
Side by side
There's sand in our toes
We're alive
Feel the weight of your kiss
Crashing down on my lips
My heart beats faster when I'm with you
'Cause I know that you, you want me too
I swear to hell I'll never leave
'Cause I know one thing
Love is all we need
My heart beats faster when I'm with you
'Cause I know that you, you want me too
I swear to hell I'll never leave
'Cause I know one thing
Love is all we need
Love is all we need
Love is all we need
The song "We" by We the Kings is about two people who are deeply in love and enjoying their time together at the beach. The singer talks about how they're in the middle of a fight, but he knows that they can work it out because they have each other. He emphasizes that love is all they need and they should make the most of their time together because life is short. The chorus repeats the idea that his heart beats faster when he's with his loved one, and he promises to never leave her because he knows that they need each other.
The overall message of the song is about the importance of love and companionship, especially during difficult times. The imagery of the moonlight, waves, and sand in their toes creates a sense of intimacy and closeness between the two individuals. The singer's steady and mellow vocals add to the calming and romantic nature of the song.

This is the fight you can win
You have the ability to overcome this challenge
My hands are tied, giving in
I feel powerless to help
I know you can't see
You may not realize it
But trust me
Believe in my words
Believe
Have faith that things will work out
'Cause we're on the beach
We are together in a peaceful place
Side by side
Standing close, together
There's sand in our toes tonight

The moonlight, the waves
The natural beauty around us
Chasing our feet
Surrounding and enfolding us

We will have fun and be free
'Cause naked we came
We are all equal and vulnerable
So, naked we leave
We should live without pretense
And we saw the world dying down
We witnessed a decline in the world
So we lived it up, stole the crown
We made the most of life, taking control
And now we are free
We have achieved liberation
Let's get out and breathe
We should enjoy and explore the world
Are you ready?
Are you prepared for what's to come?
We'll do this together
We are united in this endeavor
We'll make this forever
We will make this last a lifetime
I know you don't want me to go
You want me to stay with you
I can see you were waiting for me
You have been anticipating my arrival
You got love in your eyes
You have deep affection for me
Now it's time to lose all our control
We should let ourselves go and be free
We're alive
We are filled with life and energy
Feel the weight of your kiss
Your kiss is meaningful and powerful
Crashing down on my lips
The sensation of your kiss is intense and overwhelming
Love is all we need
In the end, love is what is most important
