Think Twice
C�line Dion Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't think I can't feel that there's something wrong
You've been the sweetest part of my life for so long
I look in your eyes, there's a distant light
And you and I know there'll be a storm tonight
This is getting serious
Are you thinking 'bout you or us?

Don't say what you're about to say
Look back before you leave my life
Be sure before you close that door
Before you roll those dice
Baby think twice

Baby think twice for the sake of our love, for the memory
For the fire and the faith that was you and me
Baby I know it ain't easy when your soul cries out for higher ground
'Cause when you're halfway up, you're always halfway down
But baby this is serious (this is serious)
Are you thinking 'bout you or us?

Don't say what you're about to say
Look back before you leave my life
Be sure before you close that door
Before you roll those dice
Baby think twice

Baby this is serious (this is serious)
Are you thinking 'bout you or us?

Baby, don't say what you're about to say (no, no, no, no)
Look back before you leave my life (don't leave my life)
Be sure before you close that door
Before you roll those dice

(Baby think twice) don't do what you're about to do
My everything depends on you (I depend on you)
Whatever it takes, I'll sacrifice
Before you roll those dice (don't you leave, baby, no don't you leave baby)

Don't say what you're about to say
Look back before you leave my life (don't leave my life)
Be sure before you close that door




Before you roll those dice
Baby think twice

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Celine Dion's "Think Twice" are a plea from someone to their lover not to make a hasty decision that could end their relationship. The song begins with the singer acknowledging that they can feel that something is wrong between them and their partner, who has been a significant part of their life for so long. They can see in their partner's eyes that they are distant, and the singer knows that a storm is coming. The situation is getting serious, and they wonder whether their partner is thinking about themselves or their relationship. The chorus urges the partner to think twice before ending things, for the sake of their love, the memories they share, and the faith and fire that have kept them together.


The singer acknowledges that it's not easy to resist the call of something greater when your soul cries out for a higher purpose. They know it's hard being halfway up, always halfway down, but they implore their partner not to make any rash decisions that could hurt them both. They say that their everything depends on their partner, and they're willing to sacrifice whatever it takes to keep their love going. They end the song by again urging their partner not to say what they're about to say, to look back before they leave, and to be sure before they close the door and roll the dice.
