Now Or Never
Die Happy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I tremble when I lay in your arms
But it's hard to believe that you'll stay
I will not hold you back
You will always be free
I know that
I don't wait for a chance anymore
I hope you leave before I, I start to ache
you are now or never
you could stay forever
but I feel now
that I can't go on
you are now or never
you could stay forever
i still love you
but i can't go on
I burned passionately for your love
I gave you all my warmth, I thought I had enough
But I slowly burn low, disappear
I can't feed the flames alone
It wasn't meant for us both.....
To be
The time and the place were wrong
Why do I ache
When I always knew
It isn't a game for me to lose
Not my intention to get confused again
You made it happen and I walk away...... overthrown
I can't go on
Passionately
It's all gone
The Die Happy song "Now or Never" is a power ballad with emotional lyrics about a relationship that has reached its breaking point. The opening lines of "I burn passionately for your love, I tremble when I lay in your arms" speak of the intense physical attraction between the singer and their partner. However, the following lines reveal a sense of insecurity in the relationship, as the singer struggles to believe that their partner will stay with them. The chorus repeats the refrain "you are now or never, you could stay forever", with the singer acknowledging that the decision about the future of the relationship is in their partner's hands.
The second verse continues to describe the singer's feelings of uncertainty and vulnerability, as they realize that they have given their all to the relationship and are now running on empty. The line "I can't feed the flames alone" suggests that the passion and intensity has faded, and that the relationship is no longer sustainable without mutual effort. The final lines suggest that despite the pain and heartbreak, the singer needs to let go and move on.
Overall, the lyrics of "Now or Never" express a sense of desperation and urgency, with the singer pleading for their partner to make a decision about the future of their relationship. The emotive vocals and powerful instrumentation underscore the intensity of the emotions described in the lyrics, making this a standout track on Die Happy's album.
