LOVE AGAIN
Carly Rae Jepsen Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Open up your heart to the ceiling
Don't you know it hurts for a reason
Time will take you back to believing
You'll learn to love again
You'll learn to love again

Stars, won't you shine on me
Won't you dance with me
Me and my baby
Life, is enough to cry
It's a lot to give and it's driving me crazy

I never meant to fight with you
I wanted us to stay together
And even now my love is true
I know that we can't be together

Open up your heart to the ceiling
Don't you know it hurts for a reason
Time will take you back to believing
You'll learn to love again you'll learn to love again

Somewhere out there someone is breathing
Just for you their heart keeps on beating
Time will take you back to believing
You'll learn to love again you'll learn to love again

Moon, where's the man in you
Show the way to us
The sky is turning black now
Moon, what you trying to do
It's too late for us and there's no turning back now

I never meant to fight with you
I wanted us to stay together
And even now our love is true
I know that we can't be together

Open up your heart to the ceiling
Don't you know it hurts for a reason
Time will take you back to believing
You'll learn to love again you'll learn to love again

Somewhere out there someone is breathing
Just for you their heart keeps on beating
Time will take you back to believing
You'll learn to love again you'll learn to love again

You'll learn to love again you'll learn to love again

Open up your heart to the ceiling
Don't you know it hurts for a reason
Time will take you back to believing
You'll learn to love again you'll learn to love again

Somewhere out there someone is breathing
Just for you their heart keeps on beating
Time will take you back to believing
You'll learn to love again you'll learn to love again





You'll learn to love again you'll learn to love again

Overall Meaning

Carly Rae Jepsen's song "Love Again" is a poignant and emotional message about love and relationships. The lyrics encourage the heartbroken to keep an open mind and have hope for the future. The song starts with the line "Open up your heart to the ceiling," suggesting that the person should be honest with themselves and allow themselves to feel vulnerable. It then goes on to say, "Don't you know it hurts for a reason," highlighting that there was a purpose why their heart was broken, and they will eventually find someone who makes it worthwhile. The following line, "Time will take you back to believing," sends the message that healing takes time and that they should not rush the process.


The second verse talks about the stars and the moon, as the singer tries to find solace in the beauty of nature. She sings about how at least the stars and moon are constants, even though her heart is broken. In the bridge, she calls out to someone who might have the answers, the 'man in the moon,' asking him to show them the way. However, the moon remains silent, reflecting the person's unchanging fate. Nonetheless, the song concludes with a message of hope, with the chorus repeating that the person will learn to love again.


Overall, "Love Again" is an excellent message for those who have lost faith in love. Through this song, Carly Rae Jepsen reminds them that their love story is not over yet and reassures them that they will learn to love again.
