I'll See You Again
B.A.N.G! Lyrics

I'll see you later
This line is a refrain that indicates the singer's confidence that they will reunite with the person they are addressing

We all stars
The singer is acknowledging that everyone has value and potential, likening them to celestial bodies

But us two makes one
Despite the individual nature of people, the bond between the singer and the addressed person creates a sense of unity

Know we've come so far
The artist recognizes the progress they have made with the addressed person in their relationship or life journey

But we're still not done
Despite the progress, there is still more to be done in their journey together

Know I can't wait
The singer is eager for the day when they will be reunited with the addressed person

Until the day comes
The singer is anticipating a future point in time, which signals their confidence that they will see the addressed person again

Ignorance is bliss
Sometimes not knowing is preferable to the harshness of reality or the pain of losing someone

And that's why I can't say nothing
The artist's inability to speak or express themselves is rooted in the comfort of not knowing the worst-case scenario or outcome

When I fell so deep
The artist is referencing an emotional state where they were overwhelmed, possibly by love or a traumatic event

Saw my hands turn old
The impact of the emotional weight on the singer is so great it causes physical changes that symbolize the passage of time

I saw fire freeze
The artist witnessed something seemingly impossible, like the reversal of the natural order, further emphasizing the emotional turmoil they are experiencing

That's when my heart went cold
The preceding events have caused the singer's emotions to become numb and cold, leading to a sense of detachment and isolation

I saw stars die
The singer experienced something deeply saddening or tragic, leading to a loss of hope or joy

Put tears in my eyes
The events described were so painful that they caused the singer to cry

Cause after last words
Referring to a final conversation that occurred before the person being addressed passed away

All the angels cry
A metaphor suggesting that the loss of the addressed person was so great, that even angels mourned

Then everything went dark
Potentially referring to a moment of near-death experience or a moment of deep despair

Felt the last beat of my heart
Suggests a moment where the singer is close to death and reflecting on what may be their last moments on earth

But with death came life
An acknowledgment that death is part of the natural cycle of life, and can potentially lead to new life and renewed hope

Like how night turns light
A metaphor for how darkness can eventually give way to light and hope

What a sight to see
A moment of awe and wonder related to the afterlife or new beginnings

All these memories
The singer is reflecting on shared memories they had with the person they are addressing

Ones we've never seen
The potential for new experiences and memories that they will never have together

Saw the most amazing thing you'll ever see
A moment of supreme joy or wonder that the singer witnessed in the afterlife, potentially related to the addressed person

That's when I shot into the sky
Potentially describing leaving the afterlife and soaring upwards towards heaven

Like a shooting star
A simile that likens the singer's upward journey to a shooting star's path in the sky

Baby always said that I could fly
The addressed person was supportive of the artist's dreams or potential, possibly related to a specific talent or ability

Knew you wasn't far
The artist has a sense that the addressed person is nearby, or still connected to them in some way

In my heart
A sense of emotional connection or closeness

This little light of mine
A metaphor for the singer's soul or inner self, a part of which is thought to live on after death

Baby let it shine
A request for the addressed person to continue to be a positive influence in the artist's life, even after death

Like a lullaby
The artist is comforted by the thought of the addressed person watching over them like a soothing lullaby

Singing every night
A method of coping or finding comfort, by imagining the addressed person singing over them while they sleep

Guess we do this every time
A sense that this experience of losing someone and hope for reunion is something that happens often in life

Like the butterflies
A simile that suggests the artist is feeling a sense of nervousness or anticipation, like butterflies in their stomach

Lived a couple lives
The singer has had multiple life experiences, potentially with the addressed person

Known a couple times
A shared experience of going through difficult times or hardships

Look me in my eyes
The singer is requesting a physical connection or emotional intimacy with the addressed person

Cause you know they never lie
The artist recognizes that the eyes are a window to the soul, and that the addressed person understands them deeply

This world was made for you and I
An acknowledgment that the world was made for all people, including the artist and the addressed person

And we don't even have to try
The singer and the addressed person have a natural and effortless connection and ability to coexist in the world

It's in our hearts and on our minds
The connection between the singer and the addressed person is deeply ingrained in their emotional and mental states

Let me know when you know why
The artist is searching for deeper understanding or meaning related to their connection with the addressed person, possibly related to life after death
