On And On
Gloss Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Remember lying 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

Feeling high and low

You didn't want to change

You're poisoned by a fairy tale

Stolen from your sleep

Stolen from your destiny

[Chorus:]

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 thoose days are gone

Now we're running out of time

Who knows the reason why

And I hear you say

The things I said today

You didn't want to change

You're poisoned by a fairy tale

Stolen from your dreams

Stolen from your destiny

[Chorus:]

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

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song "On And On" by Gloss portray the feelings of regret and lost love. The song reminisces about the summer nights spent lying side by side and the memories of crazy times. The singer wonders if those memories were just a dream or if the feelings they once had for each other truly grew. The lyrics suggest that the other person did not want to change and was too caught up in a fairy tale stolen from their sleep and destiny.


The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "On and on, for more and more" and "Heaven is a place for no-one or everyone." The lyrics suggest that the search for more and more, the pursuit of higher and higher goals can be an endless cycle that takes away from the happiness and satisfaction that can be found in simple joys. The concept of heaven is also used as a metaphor for the search for happiness and fulfillment.


The song also touches upon the pain of a lost relationship. The singer remembers when they used to say that their ways should never part and how they thought the other person was the one for them. However, now those days are gone, and they are running out of time. The lyrics do not explicitly state the reason for their split, but the singer hears the other person repeating the things they said today, which suggests that there may have been hurtful words exchanged during their breakup.


Overall, "On And On" by Gloss is a reflection on lost love, regrets, and the endless search for happiness and fulfillment.

Experiencing a variety of emotions and moods

[Chorus:] On and on For more and more Heaven is a place for no-one or everyone

Recalling a time when we made promises to each other

Heaven doesn't belong to anyone else but us

We have our own personal definition of heaven
