Your Time Will Come
Amy Macdonald Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm sick and tired of playing it off, sick of this parade.
And your eyes are gently weeping as the sun begins to shine.
The end is coming far too soon, I wish i had more time.
So soon your time will come. Let it out while you're still young.
May all your dreams come true for someone like you.
So soon your time will come. Let it out while you're still young.
And my eyes are getting tired as the day begins to break.
I left it oh so far behind, my biggest mistake.
And your sign is unlike mine, it disappears from time to time
And I believe in you and everything you'll ever do.
So soon your time will come. Let it out while you're still young.
May all your dreams come true for someone like you.
So soon your time will come. Let it out while you're still young.
May all your dreams come true, so happy for you.
So soon your time will come. Let it out while you're still young.
May all your dreams come true, for someone like you.
So soon your time will come. Let it out while you're still young.
May all your dreams come true, so happy for you.
In "Your Time Will Come," singer-songwriter Amy Macdonald reflects on the fleeting nature of time and encourages the listener to chase their dreams while they still can. The opening verse describes a calming scene of a gentle wind blowing and the fading light, but the singer is tired of pretending to be something they're not and tired of going through the motions. The second verse describes how the day is starting to break, and the singer acknowledges that they've left something important behind, referencing their "biggest mistake." In contrast, the person they're singing to has a different path, symbolized by their disappearing sign, and the singer believes in them and all they will accomplish.
The chorus repeats the central message: "May all your dreams come true for someone like you...Let it out while you're still young." The repetition of "so soon your time will come" emphasizes the urgency of pursuing one's dreams before it's too late. It's a reminder that life is short and unpredictable, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't strive for success and happiness.
This song is a reminder to live life to the fullest and not let opportunities slip away. It's a message that resonates with people of all ages, as we all have dreams and aspirations that we may be putting off for various reasons. "Your Time Will Come" encourages us to take risks and pursue our passions, because we never know when our time will run out.

I love all of the songs of Amy Macdonald. Her song Don't Tell Me That's Over is one of my favourite songs. I got to know about Amy by watching the YouTube video in which she sings Springsteen's song Dancing In The Dark. Dancing In The Dark is also one of my favourite songs.
