Voice
C.N.Blue Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Won't you take me back to school
I need to learn the golden rule
Won't you lay it on the line
I need to hear it just one more time
Oh, oh, won't you tell me again
Oh, oh, can you feel it?
Oh, oh, won't you tell me again, tonight
Each and every heart it seems
Is bounded by a world of dreams
Each and every rising sun
Is greeted by a lonely one
Oh, oh, won't you tell me again
Oh, oh, can you feel it?
Oh, oh, won't you tell me again, tonight
Tonight

'Cause out on the ocean of life my love
There's so many storms we must rise above
Can you hear the spirit calling
As it's carried across the waves?
You're already falling
It's calling you back to face the music
And the song that is coming through
You're already falling
The one that it's calling is you

Make a promise, take a vow
And trust your feelings it's easy now
Understand the voice within
And feel the change already beginning
Oh, oh, won't you tell me again
Oh, oh, can you feel it?
Oh, oh, won't you tell me again, tonight

Oh, oh, won't you tell me again
Oh, oh, can you feel it?
Oh, oh, won't you tell me again, tonight
Tonight

And how many words have I got to say?
And how many times will it be this way?
With your arms around the future
And your back up against the past
You're already falling
It's calling you on to face the music
And the song that is coming through
You're already falling
The one that it's calling is you

Each and every heart it seems
Is bounded by a world of dreams
And each and every rising sun
Is greeted by a lonely, lonely one
Won't you tell me again
Oh, oh, can you feel it?
Oh, oh, won't you tell me again, tonight

Oh, oh, won't you tell me again
Oh, oh, can you feel it?
Oh, oh, won't you tell me again, tonight
Tonight




Oh, oh, can you feel it, tonight?
Oh, oh, won't you tell me again, tonight?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Voice" by C.N.Blue are a call to return to the simplicity and purity of childhood. The singer longs to go back to school and learn the "golden rule" again. The repetition of "oh, oh, won't you tell me again" emphasizes the desire to hear this message repeated, for it is one that has been forgotten over time. The opening stanza is a plea for the listener to "lay it on the line," to speak the truth plainly and openly. There is a sense of urgency in this plea, as if the singer is afraid that time is running out.


The second stanza speaks to the loneliness that plagues each person, despite the fact that we are all part of a larger world. Each of us is "bounded by a world of dreams" and greets the rising sun as if we are the only one in the world. The third stanza shifts to a more spiritual tone, imagining each person as a boat on the "ocean of life," facing storms that we must rise above. The call to hear the spirit is both haunting and comforting, as though there is a source of guidance and strength that is available to us if we are willing to listen.


The final stanza speaks of making a promise, taking a vow, and trusting our feelings. The repetition of "oh, oh, won't you tell me again" makes it feel as though the singer is trying to convince themselves as much as they are trying to convince the listener. The line "you're already falling, the one that it's calling is you" is almost ominous, as though there is no escaping the destiny that is laid out for each of us.
