When The Feeling's Gone
Haddaway Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know you're all alone
And you're feeling strange
That you're standing there
Our best friend
And even when you think
That he's coming back
You hold onto your ring like a last wish
When the feeling's gone
You'll be feeling strange
When the feeling's gone
You know you're captivated

When the feeling's gone
When the feeling's gone
Baby, you know (Baby, you know)
(Repeat)

Now that's really cold
You got a broken heart
But you're changing fast like a fast train
Winter's coming soon
Should not go outside
A boy is passing by
With a brigh smile

When the feeling's gone
Someone stops to shine
When the feeling's gone
You walk with an open side

When the feeling's gone
When the feeling's gone
Baby, you know (Baby, you know)
(Repeat)

(When the feeling's gone) (repeat 6 times)
(Baby, you know, baby you know)

When the feeling's gone
Someone stops to shine
When the feeling's gone
You walk with an open side

When the feeling's gone
When the feeling's gone
Baby, you know (Baby, you know)
(Repeat)





When the feeling's gone
When the feeling's gone

Line by Line Meaning

I know you're all alone
I understand that you are by yourself


And you're feeling strange
And you are experiencing an unusual emotion


That you're standing there
That you are currently stationary


Our best friend
My close friend


And even when you think
And even in instances when you are convinced


That he's coming back
That he intends to return


You hold onto your ring like a last wish
You grip your ring tightly as if it is your final hope


When the feeling's gone
Once the sensation has vanished


You'll be feeling strange
You will experience unfamiliar emotions


You know you're captivated
You acknowledge that you are engrossed


When the feeling's gone
Once the sensation has departed


When the feeling's gone
Once the sentiment has vanished


Baby, you know (Baby, you know)
Darling, you are aware of this (Darling, you are conscious of this)


Now that's really cold
That is genuinely insensitive


You got a broken heart
You have suffered a heartbreak


But you're changing fast like a fast train
Despite that, you are quickly transforming like a high-speed locomotive


Winter's coming soon
Winter will arrive shortly


Should not go outside
You ought not to go outside


A boy is passing by
A young man is walking past


With a bright smile
Wearing a cheerful expression


Someone stops to shine
It feels as if somebody stops glowing


You walk with an open side
You roam around being unguarded


When the feeling's gone
When the sensation has dissipated


When the feeling's gone
When the emotion has faded
