From Time to Time
Chris Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tear at my dreams
Sweeten the cream
Brew it up
I'm not feeling myself
Early-morning gospel
Head off to the hospital
We're all behind you
We're all behind you now
We're all behind...

Stargaze at the past
ct nothing
Might have been something
But nothing's here now

Cut at the seams, believe a belief
Hunker down, you'll be here awhile
c heart's beating fast
Just to make your high last
Blow it up, we're all behind you
We're all behind you now
We're all behind...

Stargaze at the past
ct nothing
Might have been something
But nothing's here now...

Nothing to find here but your innocence
Being tied down by your consciousness

Stargaze at the past
ct nothing
Might have been something
But nothing's here now...

Something
Might not be nothing
But something's here now
Something's around
Or nothing might not be something
But nothing's here now

Hand over your collection of
Thoughts and correlations
Mis-used words and your devastation

Stargaze at the past at nothing




Might have been something
But there's nothing's there now...

Overall Meaning

"From Time to Time" by Chris seems to be a contemplative song that delves into themes of nostalgia, loss, and the constant search for something meaningful. The opening lines, "Tear at my dreams, sweeten the cream, brew it up, I'm not feeling myself," evoke a sense of unease and dissatisfaction. It suggests that the singer is yearning for something more fulfilling, perhaps trying to find solace in their dreams or fantasies.


The mention of an "early-morning gospel" and heading off to the hospital could symbolize seeking spiritual or emotional healing. The repetition of "We're all behind you" reinforces a supportive presence, indicating that there are people who empathize with and support the singer's journey.


The chorus emphasizes the act of looking back at the past, implying a longing for something that may have been significant at one point but is now gone. The repetition of "nothing's here now" further emphasizes the void or emptiness that the singer feels.


The bridge emphasizes the search for meaning, with the lines "Nothing to find here but your innocence, being tied down by your consciousness." It suggests that the singer's innocence or purity is being hindered or restrained by the burden of their own consciousness and awareness.

Lyrics ⬇️

[Chorus]
Time after time, I tell you why again
Why won't you let me leave?
Fuckin' up more than the bag, you fuckin' up friends
If I told you the whole truth, would you lie?
If my heart is in your hands, will I die?
If your mama and your daddy don't like me
Would you stay in my corner when I fight?
Would you love me? (Love me)

[Verse 1]
Do you believe in life after love?
'Cause I've been thinkin' we both had enough
But I'm not sayin' that's the answer
Oh, I want her to tell me if it's real, if there really ain't no trust
I'ma make you bust, but I need you to be cool with yourself
Maybe we be goin' slow-mo (Yeah)
Maybe we should pick it up like on the go-go (Go-go)
Maybe change of pace is needed for the glow up
We can take it or we leave it or we show out

[Chorus]
Time after time, I tell you why again
Why won't you let me leave? (Lil' bitch)
Fuckin' up more than the bag, you fuckin' up friends (Fuckin' up friends, something is wrong, lil' bitch)
If I told you the whole truth, would you lie? (To me)
If my heart is in your hands, will I die? (Will I die?)
If your mama and your daddy don't like me (Don't like me)
Would you stay in my corner when I fight? (When I fight)
Would you love me? (Love me)

[Verse 2]
Don't start nothin' and it won't be nothin' (It won't be nothin')
Good love comes with a little bag and no strings (Little bag, no strings)
Say it now, if you ready, I can be your savior (Savior)
Say, oh, say you with it, I'ma see you later (Later)
Girl, you all up in my head, I keep my distance
I been wishin' for the better in an instant
I been handlin' all my shit 'cause it's the business
But I know if I let go that I will miss this (Miss this)
Miss this

[Chorus]
Time after time, I tell you why again (Why? Why?)
Why won't you let me leave? (Leave)
Fuckin' up more than the bag, you fuckin' up friends (Oh-oh)
If I told you the whole truth, would you lie? (To me)
If my heart is in your hands, will I die? (Will I die?)
If your mama and your daddy don't like me (No, woah)
Would you stay in my corner when I fight? (When I fight)
Would you love me ?

This mfer dont miss, bro is the coldest

@Bilaldinho1

This might sound selfish but I’m glad this song is underrated, cause not everybody deserves to hear this masterpiece.

@Max-unswayed

It just came out lol but I feel you it's gonna be underrated as usual his songs always have been but we don't care we love Chris and we streaming still

@johneudesndayisaba3301

This was on repeat the whole last night 😂

@NYCPinkBishhh

I agree. He has so many songs in his music volt. Songs like this don't get the praise that it deserves which is why he doesn't release them often. These are sort of like hidden gems. 😍😍

@jamesrobinson8516
