So Little Time
Arkana Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Took a while to drag me out of bed
Aim some coffee at my head
Saw tha clock im running late
It's an ordinary day.
And I'm like a dog on heat
Knock one out and then fall asleep
It's sad but true
Don't you forget about me
When your're a celebrity
It will be only you and me
Before too long.
So little time so much to do
I'd rather spend my days with you
So little time so much to do
I' like to spend one day with you
And if that day is not enough
May be can stay and touch
But i'm not making plans
For tomorrow, For tomorrow
Never comes...
(For tomorrow)
(Ohhh)
Said I've been celibate for years
Not out of choice thares no - one here
See i can't give my end away
Another ordinary day
And I've love to see
A little more of you
You're clothes would look better
On my beed room floor
Don't you forget about me
When you're a celebrity
It will be only you and me
Before too long.
So little time so much to do
I'd rather spend my days with you
So little time so much to do
I'd like to spend one day with you
And if that day is not enough
May be can stay and touch
But I'm not making plans
For tomorrow, For tomorrow
Never comes...
In Your eyes, in your eyes
It's in your eyes
So little time so much to do
I'd rather spend my days with you
So little time so much to do
I'd like to spend one day with you
And if that day is not enough
May be can stay and touch
Bat I'm not making plans
For tomorrow, For tomorrow
Never comes...
The opening lines of Arkana's song "So Little Time" seem to reflect the everyday humdrum of modern life; it's a typical day, and the singer is a little bit behind schedule, but finally up and out of bed. With lines such as, "it's sad but true, I'd rather be with you," the song is one of yearning for something more than just the monotony of everyday life. The song's refrain, "so little time so much to do," could be interpreted as both a reflection on the singer's busy life, but also more metaphorically for the limited time we have to spend with those we care about. There is a sense of urgency to the song, as if the singer is aware that time is slipping away from them, and they want to make the most of it.
Throughout the song, the singer expresses their desire for physical intimacy with the object of their affection, but acknowledges that they are not making plans for the long term. The song's final lines, "never comes," suggest that the singer might believe that they'll never achieve the level of intimacy they crave. However, the song is not entirely pessimistic; there is an undercurrent of hope and positivity within the lyrics, as the singer acknowledges that they would rather spend their time with this person than anyone else. Ultimately, "So Little Time" is a song about the preciousness of time and the need to live in the moment.
