Calm Down
Cosmic Gate & Emma Hewitt Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

As your life falls away from view
As the time runs away
Whatever will you do
Do you want me to again my dear
I will wait for you

As your thoughts turn to prey on you
I will keep them away, so far away
Through the dark night I'll stay with you
I will comfort you
Oh, I will

Calm down
Your nervous state
I'll sing you a lullaby

Calm down
Cause no mistake
Should keep you up all night

Fall down
Here with me
Baby we'll be alright
Baby we'll be alright





Calm down

Does your life fall away from view?
As the time runs away
Whatever will you do
Do you want me again, my dear

If your thoughts turn to prey on you
I will keep them away, so far away
Through the dark night I'll stay with you

Oh, I will

I'll sing you a lullaby

Calm down
There's no mistake
To keep you up all night

Fall down

Baby, we'll be alright
Baby, we'll be alright

Calm down, oh

i saw her live. this woman has incredible energy

@Extrememdp

This video relays a deep message of a wife/girlfriend being there for her husband/boyfriend when he is going through a rough time. She wants to take away his pain by calming him with touch and emotional physical bonding (and I'm sure other things). To me, the paint means his worries (blue) and her love and comfort (pink). They mix near the middle. Near the end, the paint (his worries and her taking them away) starts to remove itself. An endearing video full of tender emotion. GREAT song!

@kunekune88

Some people say trance is dead. I think that this amazing song (which I can't stop listening to) proves that it is not dying

@johnarmas9884

This song is 3 years old though. A lot has changed in 3 years, for the worse. 

@raymondleggs5508

lol not much has changed in years for trance, sure some tracks sound a bit more popish but its not gone the way of big room ouse with vocals by akon and stuff like that.

@storaker88

Emma Hewitt has the voice of a angel <3

@sameeraftab5684
