Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
to the twilight of our love
Oh lets have a smile
for the twilight of our love
I gave you my silver
you gave me your gold
You gave me your silver
We could make a fortune
ct the twilight of our love
We could wear the sunset
wear it like a thorny crown
bleed its colours in our heads
as the Light falls to the ground
we could wear the sunset
at the twilight of our love
oh now dont you cry babe,
dont you let your head hang down
we´d be so much better
when all our masks fall down
Could we take us as we are
at the twilight of our love?
So now lets walk proud babe
Lets dress ourselves in White
For were born again
Beyond the twilight of our love
In Charles Lavaigne's song "Twilight," the lyrics convey a sense of nostalgia and reflection on the ending of a romantic relationship. The first two lines, "Oh let's raise our glass to the twilight of our love. Oh let's have a smile for the twilight of our love," suggest a bittersweet toast to the fading love. The word "twilight" symbolizes the approaching darkness and end of the relationship.
The following lines, "I gave you my silver, you gave me your gold. You gave me your silver, I gave you my gold. We could make a fortune at the twilight of our love," refer to the exchange and value of their respective material possessions. It implies that they invested heavily in the relationship, hoping to create something prosperous and stable. However, this opportunity is now lost with the arrival of twilight.
"We could wear the sunset, wear it like a thorny crown. Bleed its colors in our heads as the Light falls to the ground. We could wear the sunset at the twilight of our love," suggests a desire to embrace the fading beauty and vibrant memories of their love. Wearing the sunset as a thorny crown represents both the pain and beauty they experienced, as they bleed its colors in their heads. It signifies their willingness to hold onto the remnants of their love, even as the light fades.
The line "oh now don't you cry babe, don't you let your head hang down" reassures the other person not to be saddened by the end of their relationship. It suggests that they will both be better off once they remove their masks, likely referring to the facades they put on during the relationship. "Could we take us as we are at the twilight of our love?" prompts a question about accepting each other for who they truly are, even as the relationship reaches its end.
Finally, the lyrics "So now let's walk proud babe, let's dress ourselves in white. For we're born again beyond the twilight of our love" encapsulate a sense of renewal and rebirth. Walking proud and dressing in white symbolize a fresh start, as they leave the twilight of their love in the past. It suggests that they can embrace a new beginning, free from the constraints and hardships of their previous relationship.
