Lyrics
Ooo there was a time you loved me
There was a time when you loved me.
Ooo just tell me I'm not crazy
Requesting reassurance that feelings aren't irrational or unfounded.
If only for a heartbeat
Desiring a connection even if temporary or fleeting.
If only for a moment
Wishing for a brief period of closeness or unity.
And if you saw me tonight
If you were to see me tonight...
You would find the love again
You'd rediscover affection repeatedly.
And over again
Emphasizing the continuous nature of rediscovering love.
And if the forces collide
If conflicting elements come together...
We could end the fight within
Possibility of resolving conflicts within.
And we'd understand
Understanding achieved momentarily.
If only for a heartbeat
Yearning for a brief connection.
Ooo I thought that I had you for myself
Belief that the speaker had the person exclusively.
Just say I wasn't crazy
Asking to confirm sanity in the situation.
If only for a moment
Longing for a fleeting instance.
A moment
Emphasizing brevity or ephemerality.
And if you saw me tonight
If you encountered me tonight...
You would find the love again
You'd rediscover affection repeatedly.
And over again
Stressing the cyclical nature of rediscovering love.
And if the forces collide
If conflicting elements come together...
We could end the fight within
Possibility of resolving conflicts within.
And we'd understand
Understanding achieved momentarily.
If only for a heartbeat
Desiring a brief connection.
It's up to you it's up to me
Decision or outcome depends on the individuals involved.
Gotta get ahold of myself
Need to regain control of emotions or situation.
There's never an answer
There may not always be a clear solution.
It's up to you it's up to me
Outcome depends on the involved individuals.
Takin' out your fine young self
Critically evaluating oneself in a difficult situation.
A total disaster
Perceived as a complete disaster or failure.
It's up to you it's up to me
Outcome depends on the involved individuals.
Gotta get ahold of myself
Need to regain control of emotions or situation.
You can't understand her there's never an answer
Difficulty in understanding someone with no clear solution.
And if you saw me tonight
If you were to see me tonight...
You would find the love again
You'd rediscover affection repeatedly.
And over again
Emphasizing the cyclical nature of rediscovering love.
And if the forces collide
If conflicting elements come together...
We could end the fight within
Possibility of resolving conflicts within.
And we'd understand
Understanding achieved momentarily.
And if you saw me tonight
If you were to see me tonight...
We could let the fires win
Possibility of resolving conflicts by yielding.
And we'd understand
Understanding achieved momentarily.
If only for a heartbeat
Desiring a brief connection.
