On & On
Gil Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Remember lyin' side by side all through a summer night
Time goes by - oh how it flies
The memories of crazy nights, are they just a dream ?
Did the feeling grow - feelin' high and low ?
You didn't want to change, you're poisoned by a fairy tale
Stolen from your sleep, stolen from your destiny
On and on, for more and more
Heaven is a place for no-one or everyone
On and on, for more and more
Heaven is a place for no-one or everyone
Remember when we used to say, our ways should never part
I thought you were the one - but now those days are gone
Now we're runnin' out of time, who knows the reason why
And I'll hear you say - the things I say today
You didn't want to change, you're poisoned by a fairy tale
Stolen from your dreams, stolen from your destiny
On and on, for more and more
Heaven is a place for no-one or everyone
On and on, for more and more
Heaven is a place for no-one or everyone
On and on, for more and more
Heaven is a place for no-one or everyone
On and on, for more and more
Heaven is a place for someone else
Heaven is a place for no-one else
Heaven is another place for you and me
On and on, for more and more
Heaven is a place for no-one or everyone
On and on, for more and more
Heaven is a place for someone else




Heaven is a place for no-one else
Heaven is another place for you and me

Line by Line Meaning

Remember lyin' side by side all through a summer night
I remember us lying close to each other on a warm summer night.


Time goes by - oh how it flies
Time passes so quickly, I can hardly believe it.


The memories of crazy nights, are they just a dream ?
I wonder if the wild moments we shared were only a figment of my imagination.


Did the feeling grow - feelin' high and low ?
Did our emotions surge up and down, wax and wane in intensity over time?


You didn't want to change, you're poisoned by a fairy tale
You resisted altering your beliefs, and were misled by a romantic myth.


Stolen from your sleep, stolen from your destiny
Your dreams and fate have been robbed from you.


On and on, for more and more
We persist and continue pursuing endless desires.


Heaven is a place for no-one or everyone
There may not be a heaven, or it can be accessible to all.


Remember when we used to say, our ways should never part
We promised that we would never separate, that we would stay together forever.


I thought you were the one - but now those days are gone
I believed you were my soulmate, but now that connection is gone.


Now we're runnin' out of time, who knows the reason why
We are rapidly losing time, without knowing why or understanding the cause.


And I'll hear you say - the things I say today
You'll echo back to me the same words I'm saying now.


Heaven is a place for someone else
Maybe heaven exists, but it's reserved for other people, not us.


Heaven is a place for no-one else
Perhaps no one else has access to heaven, if it even exists.


Heaven is another place for you and me
Heaven, if it's there, could be a unique experience that only we two share.
