Lyrics & Translation
You hear this song and suddenly see clear
Turn the music up!
Turn the music up!
I can't dance, but I want to
You share the same feeling
Turn the music up!
Turn the music up!
We don't have forever
This moment will be over soon
Let go, let go, let go!
Come on and give me this dance
Put your hand in mine
Turn the music up!
Turn the music up!
There's a rhythm that grabs us
I feel your heartbeat, it beats in time
Let this beat play!
Turn the music up!
How you move, how you spin
The euphoria that makes us live
Turn the music up!
Turn the music up!
We don't have forever
This moment will be over soon
Let go, let go, let go!
Come on and give me this dance
Put your hand in mine
Turn the music up!
Turn the music up!
Take three minutes for yourself
And give us your eternity
Turn the music up!
Turn the music up!
Turn the music up!
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Turn the music up!
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
We don't have forever
This moment will be over soon
Let go, let go, let go!
A song that sets us free
Play it again, I’m in
Let go, let go, let go!
Come on and give me this dance
Put your hand in mine
Turn the music up!
Turn the music up!
Take three minutes for yourself
And give us your eternity
Turn the music up!
Turn the music up!
Turn the music up!
Turn the music up!
Turn the music up!
