Now or Never
Now or Never: A Heartfelt Plea for Love's Timely Embrace
Lyrics
Hey girl
Expressing a greeting to the girl
You're runnin away from me
Noticing the girl is distancing herself
I can't give you any more than honesty
Unable to offer more than honesty
I must read like an old love letter
Comparing oneself to an old love letter
Little girl
Referring to the girl as "Little girl"
Its now or never
Emphasizing the urgency of the situation, it's now or never
We've had
Reflecting on shared experiences and lessons
Some time to learn the rules
Acknowledging difficulty in understanding others
I'm so bad at wearing other peoples shoes
Expressing discomfort in someone else's situation
I really thought that we could be together
Expressing hope for a future together
And that's why
Stating the reason for the urgency
It's now or never
Reiterating the urgency, now or never
(It's now or never)
Repeating the urgency for emphasis
I can't live this life without you
Declaring dependency on the girl for life
And I don't care if they say
Disregarding others' opinions about sanity
I'm off my head
Addressing potential criticism of being irrational
Cause baby when it's now or never
Highlighting the critical moment of decision
It's now or never
Reiterating the urgency, now or never
We both know
Recalling a recent phone call
You called my phone to speak
Acknowledging the call but not responding
But I was freakin so I turned the other cheek
Explaining the reason for not answering
I know now was less than clever
Admitting a lack of cleverness in handling the situation
Little girl, it's now or never
Reiterating the urgency, now or never
If you
Expressing the desire for understanding
Could read my troubled mind
Wishing for telepathic communication
If only you could feel my heart beat overtime
Describing intense emotional and physical feelings
I'd make it known on this earth forever
Declaring eternal commitment
I want you
Expressing a strong desire for the girl
And it's now or never
Reiterating the urgency, now or never
It's now or never
Repeating the urgency for emphasis
And like a candle burning
Using a metaphor of a burning candle to represent limited time
Both ends are melted all through
Describing the depletion of time and resources
My hourglass is turning
Using an hourglass metaphor for the passage of time
I can't live this life without you
Reiterating dependency on the girl for life
And I don't care if they say
Disregarding criticism of sanity
I'm off my head
Addressing potential criticism of being irrational
'Cause baby when its now or never
Reiterating the critical moment of decision
It's now or never
Repeating the urgency for emphasis
It's now or never
-I'm not off my head
Asserting sanity, contrary to others' opinions
I'm not off my head
Reiterating sanity, contrary to others' opinions
I'm not off my head
-I'm not off my head
