Again And Again
Bridges Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Feeling numb, can't feel
Removed from what I'm in
But closing my eyes, I feel closer to you
I find peace in the valley of your truth
I try to be still, chasing the memories inside
Feeling born again, feeling joy again
Your love will last forever
Your love will last forever
Sit still, take it slow, soak it in
Even though I miss the people that I love
But it feels good to be alone
Feeling born again, feeling joy again
When all else fails
Your love will last forever
Your love will last forever
Feeling born again from end to end
When all else fails
Your love will last forever
Forever
Sit still, take it slow, soak it in
Even though I miss the people that I love
But it feels good coming home, yeah
The lyrics of Bridges's song "Again and Again" portray a sense of disconnectedness and desolation that the singer is feeling, but at the same time, the lyrics also suggest a hope for the future. The opening lines "spinning around, spinning around, feeling numb, can't feel, removed from what I'm in" paint a picture of disorientation and detachment. The singer seems lost in the world, unsure of where to go or what to do. However, as the chorus states, they find solace in the fact that "your love will last forever". The love Bridges sings about seems to be a stable force in the singer's life, something they can hold onto when everything else falls apart. The lyrics "I try to be still, chasing the memories inside" indicate that the singer is searching for a sense of peace, and through love, they find it.
The second verse speaks of the singer's desire to "sit still, take it slow, soak it in", highlighting the importance of enjoying the present moment. Though they miss the people they love, they find comfort in being alone. These lyrics convey the idea that sometimes, we need to take time for ourselves to recharge and find our way back to a place of love and joy. Furthermore, the phrase "feeling born again, feeling joy again" suggests that this time of solitude and reflection brings a sense of renewal and hope for the future.
Overall, "Again and Again" speaks to the universal experience of feeling lost and disconnected, but finding hope in the steady presence of love. The song provides a reminder to take time for oneself and find joy in the present moment.
