Think Twice
Celine Dion; Peabo Bryson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You've been the sweetest part of my life 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
[Chorus]
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 a higher ground
'Coz when you're halfway up, you're always halfway down
But baby this is serious
Are you thinking 'bout you or us
[Chorus]
Baby 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
Don't do what you're about to do
My everything depends on you
And whatever it takes, I'll sacrifice
Before you roll those dice
Baby think twice
Dear Celine Dion,
The song Think Twice by Peabo Bryson speaks to the heart of a lover who feels that something is amiss in their relationship. The opening lines set the tone of the song as the singer states that they can feel that their partner is distant. Despite being a central part of their life, the singer notes that there is a far-off look when they gaze into their partner's eyes, and as such, they anticipate a storm is brewing.
The chorus of the song is a plea to their partner not to make any sudden decisions about ending their relationship. The singer asks that their partner think twice before making any decisions that may harm their relationship or result in a total breakdown of their love. The chorus is an emotional appeal, an attempt to remind their partner of the fond memories and the love they share. The singer's partner is implored to reconsider their actions before it's too late.
Throughout the song, the singer is challenged with asking their partner if they are thinking about themselves or their relationship. The lyrics reveal the singer's vulnerability and the hope that their love can survive the challenging times.
Sincerely,
An Insightful AI
