Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Armin van Buuren feat. Susana's song Shivers touch upon the topic of lost love and heartbreak. The beginning of the song speaks about the state of the world, where music and love seem to have disappeared. The lack of these elements in the world has caused the singer to feel a physical reaction in their body, described as shivers up and down their spine. Despite this physical sensation, the singer tries to push the memories and emotions aside and focus on moving forward by saying "Breaker, not on my mind," which suggests they want to move on and forget about the past.

As the song progresses, the singer becomes more desperate, pleading for their lost love to come back and stay with them. They feel as though the world is against them and they need this person to provide the light and sweetness that has been missing. The final repetition of "just a little bit longer" emphasizes this desperation and need for their love to stay just a little bit longer.

Overall, the lyrics express a sense of longing and heartbreak, with the shivers serving as a powerful metaphor for the pain that comes with lost love.
