It's Time
09. Ferry Corsten Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

A week or a day since you took your touch away
A second that was mine is now in the past
I've been tryin' to hide all that you left behind
I'm protected by hope that one day you'll be back

Spendin' my time waitin' for your heart to find a moment that is mine
I'm countin' on time to bring your love back to me
Don't let it pass you by

It's Time

Every word that you said is still alive inside my head
The footprints of your eyes were deep in my mind
I want to move on but history is hard in me still
I'm trapped in the loop still I give us a chance

Spendin' my time waitin' for your heart to find a moment that is mine
I'm countin' on time to bring your love back to me
Don't let it pass you by





It's Time

Overall Meaning

In Ferry Corsten's song, "It's Time", the singer is reflecting on a past relationship that has ended. They lament the passing of time since their partner left them, and how that loss has affected their present. The lyrics suggest the singer is trying to move on, but they are unable to do so due to the memories of the relationship and the hope that their partner might return. The line "I'm protected by hope that one day you'll be back" shows the singer's reluctance to give up on their lost love.


The chorus of the song uses repetition to emphasize the importance of time, both in the context of the relationship and in life in general. The singer is "countin' on time to bring your love back to me" but also warns "don't let it pass you by" implying that they need to take action before it's too late. The repeated use of "It's Time" can also be interpreted as a call to action, a reminder to the singer that they need to move on and let go of the past.


The second verse reinforces the idea that the memories of the relationship are still a powerful force in the singer's life. They admit that they want to move on, but are "trapped in the loop" of their history with their partner. The line "The footprints of your eyes were deep in my mind" is a particularly potent image, suggesting that the former partner's influence is indelibly imprinted on the singer's psyche.
