Slipping Away
★Moby Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All that we needed was right
Les ombres ce soir nous menacent
Open to everything happy and sad
Seeing the good, même si tout va si mal
Voir le soleil quand la nuit nous accable
Oh, pour un jour croire aux dieux, croire aux fables
Crier la vie quand tout autour se tait
Hold on to people that slipping away
Hold on to this while it's slipping away
All that we needed tonight
Are people who love us and like
Je sais les douleurs et les doutes
Oh, partir est ce qu'on redoute
Aussi
Open to everything happy and sad
Seeing the good, même si tout va si mal
Voir le soleil quand la nuit nous accable
Oh, pour un jour croire aux dieux, croire aux fables
Focus on everything better today
Crier la vie quand tout autour se tait
Hold on to people that slipping away
Hold on to this while it's slipping away
So long
Mais l'ombre
Open to everything happy and sad
Seeing the good, même si tout va si mal
Voir le soleil quand la nuit nous accable
Oh, pour un jour croire aux dieux, croire aux fables
Focus on everything better today
Crier la vie quand tout autour se tait
Hold on to people that slipping away
Hold on to this while it's slipping away
The song "Slipping Away" by Moby is a reflective and melancholic song about holding on to the good things and people in life that seem to slip away as time goes by. The chorus repeats the phrase "All that we needed was right" emphasizing that the things that really matter in life are often right in front of us, but we need to hold on to them before they slip away. The song is sung in both French and English which adds a layer of emotional depth to the already poignant lyrics.
The verses capture the feelings of hopelessness and despair that come when everything seems to be falling apart, and the only thing left to do is hold on. Moby sings about seeing the good in everything, even when it seems like everything around us is going wrong. The line "Hold on to people that slipping away" is a reminder to cherish our relationships, and not take the people we love for granted. The song is both a lamentation for the things that have slipped away and a call to action to hold onto what we have while we still can.
Overall, "Slipping Away" is a beautifully emotive song that speaks to the human experience of loss and the importance of cherishing the good things in life.
