Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Turn your magic on, to me she'd say
Everything you want's a dream away
We are legends, every day
That's what she told him

Turn your magic on, to me she'd say
Everything you want's a dream away
Under this pressure, under this weight
We are diamonds

I feel my heart beating
I feel my heart beneath my skin
I feel my heart beating
Oh, you make me feel
Like I'm alive again
Alive again
Oh, you make me feel
Like I'm alive again

Said I can't go on, not in this way
I'm a dream, I die by light of day
Gonna hold up half the sky and say
Only I own me

I feel my heart beating
I feel my heart beneath my skin
Oh, I can feel my heart beating
'Cause you make me feel
Like I'm alive again
Alive again
Oh, you make me feel
Like I'm alive again

Turn your magic on, to me she'd say
Everything you want's a dream away
Under this pressure, under this weight
We are diamonds taking shape
We are diamonds taking shape
(Woo hoo, woo hoo)

If we've only got this life
This adventure oh then I
If we've only got this life
You'll get me through, oh
If we've only got this life
And this adventure, oh then I
Wanna share it with you
With you, with you
Sing it, oh, say yeah!

Overall Meaning

In Coldplay's "Adventure of a Lifetime", the singer is being encouraged by someone he cares about to turn his "magic" on and pursue his dreams. They remind him that everything he wants is within reach, but he needs to believe in himself and make it happen. The chorus emphasizes the feeling of being alive and inspired, thanks to this person's encouragement. The lyrics suggest that the singer has been held back in some way, and that he is ready to break free and take on the challenge of pursuing his dreams.


The second verse continues this theme of breaking free from limitations. The singer declares that he can't continue living in a way that doesn't allow him to pursue his dreams. He is willing to take on the responsibility and the weight of his own life, and he wants to be with the person who has encouraged him throughout this journey. The bridge reinforces the idea that this adventure of a lifetime is something to be cherished and shared with someone special.


Overall, the song is an uplifting anthem about the power of believing in oneself and pursuing your dreams. It encourages listeners to break free from limitations, take risks, and live life to the fullest.
