Only this moment
Holds us together
Close to perfection
Nothing else out there
No one to guide us
Lost in our senses
Deep down inside I know our love will die
Only this moment
Holds us together
Lost in confusion
Feelings are out there
Scared of devotion
Doubting intentions
Deep down inside I know our love will die
Stay or forever go
Play or you'll never know
What heaven decided
You can't deny it's
All you've been waiting for
Stay or forever go
Play or you'll never know
Your spirit's divided
You will decide if I'm
All you've been waiting for
Clouds in my head have been parted with grace
By the force of an angel revealing her face
and her words they make sense 'n' I do understand
Falling in love isn't part of the plan
Forces within me mix reasons with lust, but
I'll try to accept it and not make it worse
'cause I know I might loose you by taking the chance,
But love without pain isn't really romance
Only this moment
Holds us together
Close to perfection
Nothing else out there
Always beside her
Trusting my senses
Deep down inside I know love will survive
Only this moment
Holds us together
Close to the other
Nothing else out there
Always beside her
Trusting my senses
Deep down inside I know love will survive
Holds us together
Close to perfection
Nothing else out there
No one to guide us
Lost in our senses
Deep down inside I know our love will die
Only this moment
Holds us together
Lost in confusion
Feelings are out there
Scared of devotion
Doubting intentions
Deep down inside I know our love will die
Stay or forever go
Play or you'll never know
What heaven decided
You can't deny it's
All you've been waiting for
Stay or forever go
Play or you'll never know
Your spirit's divided
You will decide if I'm
All you've been waiting for
Clouds in my head have been parted with grace
By the force of an angel revealing her face
and her words they make sense 'n' I do understand
Falling in love isn't part of the plan
Forces within me mix reasons with lust, but
I'll try to accept it and not make it worse
'cause I know I might loose you by taking the chance,
But love without pain isn't really romance
Only this moment
Holds us together
Close to perfection
Nothing else out there
Always beside her
Trusting my senses
Deep down inside I know love will survive
Only this moment
Holds us together
Close to the other
Nothing else out there
Always beside her
Trusting my senses
Deep down inside I know love will survive

Another meaning could be (which I find to be the real meaning):
The man is doubting if he is the right one for the woman to make love to. He fears if he goes rough on her, that it will be the end of their relationship. The woman is saying "Stay of forever go. Play or you never know. Your spirit's divided. You will decide if I'm all you've been waiting for." Meaning to either to stay and make love to her if he think she's the one or to leave. The angel comes and talks to the man but he believes if he ends up being rough in the love making, that will put an end to their relationship. So he decides to take it easy so their love will survive.
and i think the meaning is clear , u ll see ur soulmate one day and u hav to choose right now or NEVER !
but i try to accept it and not think it works
'cause I know I might lose you by taking the chance,
But love without pain isn't really romance"
This part makes me think it's some type of sexual reference of two people in bed at an intimate "moment". You know how there are certain ways to "treat" a girl while having sex, well I think this guy is lacking confidence or is worried about self restraint. I know some people go crazy in bed, but when it's your first time you try to take things slow. Being in bed intimately can bring both pleasure and pain. This is why I think the last line says "love without pain isn't really romance" it could mean that he's still trying to convince himself that perhaps the girl will forgive him for hurting her. Also it could mean how a couple's romance has it's worst and good times. Like arguments, doubts etc.
it's goes with married people who can't fall in love with other people ..
and gays ... guy can't love this guy coz it's not right for him but he can't help it ...
I love this song .... make me fly ...
I think (and this is probably partly based on what is going on in my life and therefore head at the moment) that the song is about two friends that harbour secret feelings for each other, but that see barriers to their relationship. However they get themselves into a situation where they are forced to confront their feelings (out dancing, up the eifel tower, what ever). In my head i have them ooking into each others eyes and guessing at what the other is feeling.
At the start the guy is overly concerned with the consequences of the relationship, what ever they may be, the entire second verse seems to me to be about him backing away, attempting to convince himself that what hes seeing from the girl isnt real, that its all in his head. he's possibly convinced himself that if he can ride out his feelings for her for longer they will eventually fade, "deep down inside i know our love will die"
The girl then sees the indecision, and steps up her part, forcing him to accept that what hes seeing is true. to me "play or you'll never know" is a refernce to the gamble he has to take to find out whether he has the chance to make something happen. She introduces the idea of fate, and that they were pre-ordaned to be together somehow, before repeating the original plea to him to take the chance, but a little uncertain of whether he will or wont, she tells him that the choice is totally his to make, a kind of 'im here if you want me' moment.
The guy then sees whats being communicated, the clouds parting is a pretty standard term for clarity taking the place of confusion, the angel obviously needs no description, and he accepts that they do have a chance at being together. The "falling in love isnt part of a (the?) plan" line, to me, seems to say that this wasnt what either of them set out for, that it has just happened, mabye it complicates their lives somewhat.
the mixing of reason with lust is his last shred of doubt. the situation is difficult and hard to work around, so therefore can it happen, will the relationship work? the lust is what he feels for her, the part of him that wants to surrender to what is happening. he decides to 'go with the flow' and take his chance despite that fact that doing so could cause irrevicable damage to their current relationship, he accepts that love can hurt.
Finally they kiss and the moment is complete, they each know where the other stands, they are ready to fight past the problems their relationship throws up.
probably wrong, but thats what i think :)
When I hear songs, I usually think of a story that goes with them, but I guess you're supposed to find a meaning here, so:
It's just an encounter "only this moment", with the narrator being wary because they know "our love will die"-
they know that love isn't a pretty, perfect thing and know it's safer to stay away.
But as it goes on, it seems the love interest is also reluctant to commit. ""scared of devotion"
Yet attraction wins, calling this girl an angel, preparing for "pain" and hoping "our love will survive"
SUMMARY- knowing better but loving despite it
1)The guy falls in love with someone he doesn't think he can have, reasonably, then he comes to the realization that he shouldn't be letting reason decide who he can and can't see, so he goes for it, and it works out.
2)The guy enters into a doomed relationship by deluding himself into thinking that it'll work.
also
"Falling in love isn't part of [a] plan"
the "the" to "a" change is rather important here, as it changes it from "our/God's plan doesn't include falling in love" to "you can't plan for falling in love" which is a key difference.
Clouds in my head have been parted with twist
by the force of an angel revealing her face
and her words they make sense and I do understand
Falling in love isn't part of the plan
Forces within me mix reason with lust,
but i try to accept it and not think it works
'cause I know I might lose you by taking the chance,
But love without pain isn't really romance
The song describes a story. A story of how two people who meet and go along with whatever chemistry they find between them. The guy apparently assumed that they were not supposed to fall in love, he shouldn't feel this way because falling in love wasn't part of the plan.
After she sings her verse stating that she's waiting and that he should play or he'll never know, he responds by saying that he's seen the light - parted by grace by the voice of an angel revealing her face (maybe the girl?). He realizes that he does want to be with her, hence why the last verse is extremely important and should not be left out as uncledub commented. The verse here changes from "scared of devotion, feeling so out there. deep down inside i know our love will die" to "always beside her. trusting my senses. deep down inside i know love will survive."
In the end he has made the decision to be with her. There are so many layers to this song, and if you watch the video and try to analyze that, there are so many more. My friends and I have come up with half a dozen scenarios and hypotheses as to what is going on in the video and how it relates to this song.
