So Little Time
Arkarna Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Aim some coffee at my head,
Saw the clock I'm 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 you're a celebrity,
It will be only you and me
Before too long.
So little time so much to do,
I 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,
Maybe we can stay in touch,
But I'm not making plans for tomorrow,
For tomorrow never comes.
Said I've been celibate for years,
Not out of choice theres 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 bedroom floor,
Bedroom floor,bedroom floor.
Don't you forget about me,
When you're a celebrity
I know you're busy,
But we all need somebody - 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,
Maybe we can stay in touch,
But I'm not making plans for tomorrow,
For tomorrow never comes.
Never comes
Never comes
For tomorrow
Never comes
Arkarna's song "So Little Time" describes the singer's desire to spend time with someone they care about, rather than dealing with the pressures of everyday life. The song begins with the singer struggling to wake up and get ready for the day, feeling like an "ordinary" day. They then express feeling like a "dog on heat," unable to resist the urge to pursue their desires, even if it means falling asleep afterward. Despite their busy schedule and the social status of the person they care about, the singer hopes that they won't be forgotten and that they can spend time together. The bridge of the song reveals the singer's loneliness, having been celibate for years due to a lack of available partners.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the limited amount of time the singer has to spend with the person they care about, and their desire to spend their time together instead of focusing on other tasks. They express the hope that they can stay in touch, but make a point of not making plans for the future because "tomorrow never comes." Overall, the song seems to be a reflection on the value of time and the importance of making connections with people, even if they are fleeting.

Took a while to drag me out of bed,

I looked at the clock and realized I'm late.
It's an ordinary day.
Today is nothing special.
And I'm like a dog on heat,
I'm very eager for something.
Knock one out and then fall asleep,
I get tired after achieving one thing.
It's sad but true,
This is unfortunate but genuine.
I'd rather be with you
I wish to spend my time with you.
Don't you forget about me,
Please remember me.

Said I've been celibate for years,
I have not had sex for many years.
Not out of choice theres no-one here,
It's not by choice that I'm celibate, it's because there's no one around.

I cannot give myself away.
Another ordinary day,
Just another regular day.
And I've love to see a little more of you,
I would like to get to know you better.
You're clothes would look better on my bedroom floor,
I want to have sex with you.
Bedroom floor,bedroom floor.
I want to have sex with you in my bedroom.
I know you're busy,
I'm aware that you're busy.
But we all need somebody - before too long
We all need someone eventually.
Never comes
The future never arrives.
Never comes
The future never arrives.
For tomorrow
The future never arrives.
Never comes
The future never arrives.
