Like Heaven
Endanger Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm keeping my head
But emotions paralyze my little soul
It's so hard to say but I'm not the same
Since the moment I saw you

And I can't tell you how
You make me feel when you're standing by my side
Everything I want is so close at hand

But I know you still need time

I'm keeping my head
But emotions paralyze my little soul
It's so hard to say but I'm not the same
Since the moment I saw you

You turn me inside out
And you rule my world from the oceans to the skies
Everything I want is to be with you
But I know you still need time

And I say
It is alright
So letÂ´s just stay awake all night
I watch the moonlight in your eyes
And I say

Don't surrender to me now
It's alright it feels like heaven
Like heaven, when you are coming around
This tension in the air

Don't surrender to me now
It's alright it feels like heaven

Like heaven, when you are coming around
And stay a little while

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Endanger's song Like Heaven express the emotional turmoil of someone who has fallen in love with a person who may not be ready for a commitment. The emotional rollercoaster seems to cause a sense of paralysis in the singer's soul, making it difficult to keep their head above water. Despite this, the singer is unable to deny the way they feel when the person is by their side, and how they would like nothing more than to be with them. However, the singer understands that this person still needs time and that they shouldn't rush things. Ultimately, the singer asks the person not to surrender to them now, but to stay a little while longer as it feels like heaven when they are around.

The emotions of the singer reflect a common struggle of people experiencing new love. The vulnerability and emotional intensity can cause a person to feel paralyzed or frozen in time. The lyrics also convey the feeling of uncertainty that often comes with waiting to hear back from someone you've fallen for. The rhythm of the song and the repetition of some phrases bring a sense of urgency and need for resolution to the situation. The reference to the moonlight in the person's eyes offers a romantic touch that elevates the song's contemplative feel.

I'm keeping my head
I'm trying to stay composed

But emotions paralyze my little soul
But my feelings overwhelm me

It's so hard to say but I'm not the same
It's difficult to admit, but I've changed

Since the moment I saw you
Ever since I met you

And I can't tell you how
I can't put into words

You make me feel when you're standing by my side
The way you affect me when you're close

Everything I want is so close at hand
All my desires seem within reach

But I know you still need time
But I respect that you're not ready yet

You turn me inside out
You completely consume me

And you rule my world from the oceans to the skies
You have complete control over me

Everything I want is to be with you
All I crave is to be by your side
