Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Call my name)
(Call my name, call my name, call my name, call my name)

Close your eyes
Give me your hand, darling
Do you feel my heart beating
Do you understand
Do you feel the same
Or am I only dreaming?
Is this burning
An eternal flame?

I believe
It's meant to be, darling
I watch you when you are sleeping
You belong with me
Do you feel the same
Or am I only dreaming?
Is this burning (burning)
An eternal flame?

Say my name, sun shines through the rain
A whole life so lonely, then come and ease the pain
I don't want to lose this feeling
Oh
Oh (call my name)

(Call my name, call my name, call my name, call my name)

Say my name, sun shines through the rain
A whole life so lonely, then come and ease the pain
I don't want to lose this feeling
Oh

Close your eyes
Give me your hand, darling
Do you feel my heart beating
Do you understand
Do you feel the same
Am I only dreaming?
Or is this burning (burning)
An eternal flame?

Close your eyes
Give me your hand, darling
Do you feel my heart beating
Do you understand
Do you feel the same
Or am I only dreaming?
Or is this burning
An eternal flame?

Close your eyes
Give me your hand, darling (give me your hand)
Do you feel my heart beating
Do you understand (give me your hand)
Do you feel the same
Or am I only dreaming?




Or is this burning
An eternal flame?

Overall Meaning

The song "Eternal Flame" by Atomic Kitten is a romantic ballad about an eternal love that is burning like a flame. The lyrics are simple yet intense, as they convey the depth of the singer's feelings towards their lover. The song starts with a request to call the name of the singer, followed by an invitation to close the eyes and give their hand. The singer then asks if the other person feels their heart beating and understands the intensity of their emotions. There is a question if the other person feels the same or if the singer is just dreaming of an eternal connection that burns like a flame.


The second verse has the singer professing their love and their belief that it's meant to be. The singer watches the lover while they are sleeping and feels that they belong together. The last verse repeats the request to call the name of the singer and offers the consolation of easing their pain. The song stays true to its theme of eternal love and a flame that never dies.


Overall, "Eternal Flame" is a tribute to the power of love and the intensity of emotions that come with it. It speaks of a love that transcends time and space, a love that is eternal.
