Can
Zara Larsson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This is something new to me, ooh
I think I miss you everytime you're gone
And it's so hard to believe, ooh
You're right here with me all along
Don't know how I could deny
The magic that I feel when you're near me
It's so clear
I can let you walk away
I need you to stay by my side
Stay right here
It's too late now
Think I'm lost in your love
Your chemistry and energy got me feeling the rush
It's too late now
Got me breathing your love
There's a fire between us you're filling in with your touch

Oh oh oh
Can't hold back, can't hold back, can't hold back
Can't hold back, no
Oh oh oh
Can't hold back, can't hold back, can't hold back, can't hold back

Is it true for me, oh
You are everything I want and more
Maybe I was too naive, oh
Just so you were just the same before
I still want your mind, that you never gonna leave my arms, my arms
'Cause it's right this time
And I'm gonna show you you're the one, oh, oh
It's too late now
Think I'm lost in your love
Your chemistry and energy got me feeling the rush
It's too late now
Got me breathing your love
There's a fire between us you're filling in with your touch

Oh oh oh
Can't hold back, can't hold back, can't hold back
Cant hold back, no
Oh oh oh
Can't hold back, can't hold back, can't hold back

I don't know what it is
Just know that I can't hold back
I don't know where you came from
All I know is I'm ready for more
Oh oh
Don't know where you came from
All I know is I'm ready for more
Oh oh
Don't know where you came from
All I know is I'm ready for more
It's too late now
Think I'm lost in your love
Your chemistry and energy got me feeling the rush
It's too late now
Got me breathing your love
There's a fire between us you're filling in with your touch

Oh oh oh
Can't hold back, can't hold back, can't hold back
Cant hold back, no
Oh oh oh




Can't hold back, can't hold back, can't hold back
No, I can't, I can't, I can't oh
