Lyrics & Translation

[English]

No time to stand out there

This night is something to care

We try to find somewhere to go

Its all we need

Its all we need

Its all we need

Its all we need

Its all we need right now

No time to stand out there

This night is something to care

We try to find somewhere to go

Too long the rhythm take

To come along

And get you awake

Going on, the music will make you know

Make you know

Its all we need

Its all we need

Its all we need

Its all we need

Its all we need right now

Its all we need

Its all we need

Its all we need

Its all we need

Its all we need

Too long the rhythm take

To come along

And get you awake

Going on, the music will make you know

Make you know

It's all we need

Oh, all we need

It's all we need

Oh, all we need

It's all we need

Oh, all we need

It's all we need

It's all we need

All that we need

All that we need

All that we need

Its all we need

Its all we need

Its all we need

Its all we need

Its all we need right now

Key Grammar Structures

• No time to stand out there

  ➔ Inversion/Existential 'there'

  ➔ The sentence begins with the negative adverb 'no' to emphasize the absence of time, followed by an inversion of the typical subject-verb order. 'There' functions as an introductory adverbial and is used to imply existence or presence.

• This night is something to care

  ➔ Infinitive of purpose

  ➔ 'To care' is an infinitive phrase that expresses the purpose or reason for the night's significance. It answers the question 'What is this night for?'

• We try to find somewhere to go

  ➔ Infinitive of purpose / Adverbial of place

  ➔ 'To go' is an infinitive of purpose, indicating the reason for finding a place. 'Somewhere' functions as an adverbial of place, specifying the location.

• Too long the rhythm take

  ➔ Inversion, Adverbial of degree + Subject-Verb Inversion

  ➔ This sentence structure is highly unusual and poetic. The phrase starts with the adverb 'too' (degree) followed by the subject 'the rhythm,' and then the verb 'take.' The inversion puts emphasis on how long the rhythm is lasting. This is grammatically incorrect in standard English.

• To come along

  ➔ Infinitive of purpose (implied)

  ➔ 'To come along' implies a purpose, answering the question: why is the rhythm taking too long? Its implicit purpose is to have someone 'come along,' indicating accompaniment.

• And get you awake

  ➔ Imperative + object + adjective (Subject omitted)

  ➔ This sentence, although grammatically simple, contains important features. The implied subject is 'the music' or 'the rhythm'. 'Get' functions as a causative verb, and 'awake' is an adjective modifying the object 'you.' It instructs, in effect, to become awake.

• Going on, the music will make you know

  ➔ Present continuous + Future Simple, Causative verb

  ➔ The sentence uses a blend of tenses and structures for emphasis. 'Going on' implies continuation, while 'will make you know' uses the future simple tense with the causative verb 'make' to show that the music will have an effect.

• Its all we need right now

  ➔ Pronoun 'Its' (contraction of it is) + Subject + Verb + Adverbial of time

  ➔ This is a concise and emphatic statement. 'Its' acts as a subject, followed by the verb 'is' (implied). 'All we need' is the subject complement, and 'right now' is the adverbial phrase indicating the present time.
