The Final Countdown
Chiara Galiazzo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But still it's farewell
And maybe we'll come back,
To earth, who can tell ?
I guess there is no one to blame
We're leaving ground
Will things ever be the same again?
We're heading for Venus and still we stand tall
Cause maybe they've seen us and welcome us all
With so many light years to go and things to be found
I'm sure that we'll all miss her so
It's the final countdown...
Will things ever be the same again?
It's the final countdown...
The song "The Final Countdown" by Chiara Galiazzo is about the end of a journey, possibly the end of the world. The opening lines, "We're leaving together, but still it's farewell, and maybe we'll come back to Earth, who can tell?" suggest that a group of people are leaving their planet, possibly forever. The uncertainty of returning to Earth creates a sense of sadness and finality. The next line, "I guess there is no one to blame, we're leaving ground," acknowledges that this journey is a choice and inevitability.
The following lines shift the focus to the journey itself, "Will things ever be the same again?" suggesting that the passengers are leaving behind everything they have ever known, and the past will never be the same. The chorus, "It's the final countdown" is a reference to the final moments of the journey, possibly the end of the world, or perhaps the end of a life. The line, "We're heading for Venus, and still we stand tall, Cause maybe they've seen us and welcome us all," creates a sense of hope and a new beginning. The final lines, "I'm sure that we'll all miss her so, it's the final countdown," are a tribute to the planet left behind and a recognition of the finality of the moment.

We're leaving together,
We are all departing together
But still it's farewell
However, we bid farewell
And maybe we'll come back,
Perhaps we may return
To earth, who can tell?
The destination is uncertain, maybe Earth?
I guess there is no one to blame
No one holds responsibility, I assume
We're leaving ground
Moving away from where we stand
Will things ever be the same again?
Will everything go back to the way it used to be?
It's the final countdown...
This is the ultimate countdown
We're heading for Venus and still we stand tall
Journeying towards Venus while remaining upright
Cause maybe they've seen us and welcome us all
Perhaps Venus' inhabitants saw us and accepted us
With so many light years to go and things to be found
There are still many light years to travel and discoveries to make
I'm sure that we'll all miss her so
Absolutely sure that we will miss this place tremendously
Will things ever be the same again?
Will everything go back to the way it used to be?
It's the final countdown...
This is the ultimate countdown
