No Time For Us
Daniel Broder Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
there is no time for us
oh the world won't understand
it's left no time for us
I love a girl I'll never see her again
she was so young I'll never see her again
she was so young
what is worthwhile in the world
if you can't be with the one you love
what is worthwhile
we'll be forgotten when we're gone
if I could change one thing in life
I'd make time for us
if I could change one thing
I'd make time for us
no time for us
no time for us
no time for us...
The lyrics of Daniel Broder's song "No Time For Us" convey a sense of urgency and lamentation. The repetition of the line "there is no time for us" emphasizes a profound feeling of being disconnected and neglected in a busy world. The phrase "oh the world won't understand" suggests that the singer's desire for connection and love is seen as trivial or insignificant in the grand scheme of things.
The following lines speak of a lost love, a young girl who cannot be seen again. This tragic loss emphasizes the fleeting nature of time and the regret of not being able to spend more of it with someone loved. The question posed, "what is worthwhile in the world if you can't be with the one you love," reflects the deep sense of emptiness and disillusionment that arises when one cannot be united with their beloved.
The song touches on the universal fear of being forgotten after death. The line "we'll be forgotten when we're gone" speaks to the desire for a life that leaves a lasting impact and remains in the memories of others. The final lines express the singer's longing to change the circumstances, to have more time together. The repetition of "no time for us" serves as a poignant reminder of the missed opportunities and the inherent unfairness of life.
Overall, "No Time For Us" captures the bittersweet emotions of love, loss, and the struggle against the constraints of time in a world that often undervalues meaningful connections.
