There Goes The Fear Lyrics
Out of here
We're out of here Out of heartache Along with fear There goes the fear again There goes the fear And cars speed fast Out of here And life goes past Again so near There goes the fear again There goes the fear Close your brown eyes And lay down next to me Close your eyes, lay down 'Cos there goes the fear Let it go You turn around and life's passed you by You look to ones you love to ask them why You look to those you love to justify You turned around and life's passed you by Passed you by again And late last night Makes up her mind Another fight left behind There goes the fear again Let it go There goes the fear Close your brown eyes And lay down next to me Close your eyes, lay down 'Cos there goes the fear Let it go You turn around and life's passed you by You look to ones you love to ask them why you look to those you love to justify, why you turned around and life's passed you by Think of me when you're coming down But don't look back when leaving town Oh think of me when he's calling out But don't look back when leaving town Think of me when you close your eyes But don't look back when you break all ties Think of me when you're coming down But don't look back when leaving town today There goes the fear again Let it go There goes the fear Let it go Think of me when you close your eyes But don't look back when you break all ties Think of me when you're coming down But don't look back when leaving town today |

This could be a love triangle song.

It's about a woman fleeing her relationship, and makes reference to dance culture and youth. When it says "Think of me when you close your eyes, but don't look back when you break the ties," it's like it's saying GO! But don't forget the good times.

I think the lyrics warn us not to let this happen. The song is very much a mournful cry about growing old and life passing by in a flash, but at the same time it’s also about embracing change and letting go of a youth that is no longer yours. Yes, treasure these memories with all your heart but don’t hold on to them too tightly or they will consume you. Accept the inevitable and grow old graciously.

ANYWAY, so no one thought that maybe "the fear" referred to people's fear of dying? A lot of you seem to have hit on the fact that the song is about memories. Of course, as humans we have no control over our memory; however, we do have control over how it affects us in the present. Memories can give us the joy of re-living past experiences, or they can plague us with regret.
And that's where I think "the fear" - fear of dying - comes in. We all know that we're gonna go sometime, and that it's most likely a one-shot deal. That knowledge makes a lot of people feel pressured to make sure they "do everything right", which in turn makes them look back at their past and FEAR that maybe they took a wrong turn somewhere. This is what the chorus is about - you start questioning things and trying to come up with justifications for things as a substitute for your inability to change the past.
But you don't need to - just "let it go", like the singer says. He drives the point home with the "think of me" part - enjoy the memories, but don't let them paralyze you. Don't let fear of death become fear of life in the present moment.

I just can't tell if "there goes the fear" means he's getting rid of it, or like "here it comes again." ???
