This Must Be It Lyrics

Waiting for a beam
To break through here
A chain way vision
All bright and clear

And they talk
And they dance

I was expecting something pure
With a golden hair
Arms full of bracelets
And smoke in the air

And they talk
And they dance

Here comes darkness
Just afternoon
Waiting for a sign
If I survive, I’ll worship the moon
Or something
Anything

This must be it
Long for bliss
First it was so quiet
Now I know I’m not alone in here
And they talked
And they danced

Two omens collide in my open hand
Making me a viewer
I am what I have seen

And they talk
And they dance

Your hand on my hips
Speak friendly to me
I’ve been studying for years
Patiently
Is this as far as you can take me?

This must be it
Long for bliss
First it was so quiet
Now I know I’m not alone in here
And they talked
And they danced

This must be it
Long for bliss
First it was so quiet
Now I know I’m not alone in here
And they talked
And they danced

This must be it
Long for bliss
First it was so quiet
Now I know I’m not alone in here

This must be it
Long for bliss
First it was so quiet
Now I know I’m not alone in here
And they talked
And they danced

Cover art for This Must Be It lyrics by Röyksopp

First stanza: Concert goer arriving at the venue, in line talking and dancing with another fan of the opposite gender. Closing on a third person reference of self action.

Second stanza: The expectation of the person they hoped they find "love" with.

Third stanza: Reference to the time of day, waiting for evening to come when the concert really gets going. Anticipating the excitement of the concert. Faithless worship of anything.

Fourth stanza: Concert has finally started!

Fifth stanza: A self-reference using an analogy of two elements, sand and water, in the hand, with an existential realization of self with the partner finally found.

Sixth stanza: with partner finally found, the question is posed, "I've studied a long time, can you give me more? Can you exercise my knowledge, strengths, etc.?"

Chorus: With the partner having satisfied the voice, they've reached (dancing) bliss, and we hear the refrain of memory, self and partner realization, and current situation.
