Never Enough
Cimorelli Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm trying to hold my breath
Let it stay this way
Can't let this moment end

You set off a dream in me
Getting louder now
Can you hear it echoing?
Take my hand
Will you share this with me?
'Cause darling without you

All the shine of a thousand spotlights
All the stars we steal from the night sky
Will never be enough
Never be enough
Towers of gold are still too little
These hands could hold the world but it'll
Never be enough
Never be enough

For me
Never, never
Never, never
Never, for me
For me
Never enough
Never enough
Never enough
For me
For me
For me

All the shine of a thousand spotlights
All the stars we steal from the night sky
Will never be enough
Never be enough
Towers of gold are still too little
These hands could hold the world but it'll
Never be enough
Never be enough

For me
Never, never
Never, never
Never, for me
For me
Never enough
Never, never
Never enough
No, never, never
Never enough
For me
For me
For me





For me

Overall Meaning

The opening lyrics of "Never Enough" by Cimorelli evoke the sense of exhilaration and anxious anticipation that comes with being on the cusp of a new experience. The singers of the song are trying to savor this moment, to make it last, to not let it slip away. They are acutely aware that what they are feeling right now is rare and precious, and they long for it to continue. The image of holding one's breath is a potent metaphor for this desire to freeze time and live in the moment.


As the song progresses, we see that this moment is not just a fleeting sensation but a transformative experience. The dream that has been ignited inside the singers is becoming louder and more insistent, and they want to share it with someone who can appreciate its power. The lyrics use grandiose imagery to convey the magnitude of this dream- the shine of spotlights, the stars in the night sky, the towers of gold- yet ultimately, they maintain that even these things are not enough. The beauty and wonder of the world can only be truly experienced when it is shared with someone special.


"Never Enough" is a song about the boundless nature of human desire, and how the thrill of life comes not from acquiring more and more material things, but from experiencing deep connections with others. It encourages listeners to seize the moment and invest in the people who matter most, rather than getting caught up in the endless pursuit of wealth and status. The song is a reminder that in a world where so much seems fleeting and insubstantial, the power of human relationships endures.
