Now Or Never
Electric Pineapple Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don’t look back now
The past is in the past
And nothing ever lasts
Oh
So come what may
Searching for the day
Leaning into change
So open your eyes

It’s gotta be
Now or never
This moment won’t last forever
’Cause I would trade all my days
To live this on and on
Before we’re gone
It’s now or never

Somewhere, somehow
The stars have all aligned
And doubts are left behind
Oh
Take on new faith
And trust that there is more
See the path before

So open your eyes
It’s gotta be
Now or never
This moment won’t last forever
’Cause I would trade all my days
To live this on and on
Before we’re gone
It’s now or never

Hey, it’s now or never
This won’t last forever
Hey, it’s now or never
This won’t last forever
Hey, it’s now or never
This won’t last forever
Hey, it’s now or never
This won’t last forever

It’s gotta be now or never
This moment won’t last forever
’Cause I would trade all my days
To live this on and on
Before we’re gone
It’s now or never

Woah-oh
Woah-oh

’Cause I would trade all my days
To live this on and on




Before we’re gone
It’s now or never
