This Time
House/Electro Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm waiting to be shown
The words, unseen
Still wash right over me
For all of the moon and the stars
I give you all my heart
I see you but you're far away
Ill wait some more
It's hard to be so sure
These days away
And memories decayed
Overthrown
You didn't feel like home
Stay up before you know
It's too late
For all of the moon and the stars
I give you all my heart
I see you but you're far away
I'm hoping that this time you can stay
I hope you know
I need you home
Oh no
For all of the moon and the stars
I give you all my heart
I see you but you're far away
I'm hoping that this time you can,
You can,
Can...
The lyrics of the song "This Time" by House/Electro convey themes of longing, distance, and uncertainty in a relationship. The opening lines express a sense of anticipation and eagerness to be shown or told something important, but despite that desire, the words remain unseen or unheard, emphasizing a lack of communication or understanding between the individuals involved. The imagery of words washing over the singer suggests a feeling of being inundated with emotions or messages that they may struggle to fully comprehend.
The repeated phrase "For all of the moon and the stars, I give you all my heart" highlights the depth of the singer's feelings and their willingness to offer everything they have in the relationship. However, there is a lament for the distance that exists between them, symbolized by the mention of seeing the other person but feeling that they are far away. The hope expressed in the lyrics for the other person to stay this time suggests a history of transience or impermanence in their connection, with a longing for greater stability or commitment.
As the lyrics progress, the singer reflects on the challenges of waiting and remaining sure in the face of uncertainty. The passing of time is described as days away and memories decayed, hinting at a sense of loss or fading connection. The metaphor of feeling "overthrown" and the sentiment that the other person didn't feel like home convey a feeling of displacement or a lack of belonging in the relationship. The urgency in the line "Stay up before you know it's too late" underscores a fear of missed opportunities or irreversible consequences.
The final verses bring a sense of desperation and vulnerability to the forefront, with the repeated plea for the other person to know that they are needed at home. The imagery of the moon and the stars symbolize the vastness and romantic grandeur of the singer's emotions, contrasting with the stark reality of distance and separation. The repetition of the phrase "I'm hoping that this time you can" conveys a yearning for a breakthrough or a change in the pattern of temporary connections. The song ends with a sense of longing and unresolved tension, leaving the listener with a poignant reflection on the complexities of love and distance.

I hope you know
I want you to understand
I'm waiting to be shown
I'm ready to see for myself
The words, unseen
The words left unspoken
Still wash right over me
Still affect me deeply
For all of the moon and the stars
I'm willing to give everything
I give you all my heart
I pour out all of my love
I see you but you're far away
I see you but I feel distant
I'm hoping that this time you can stay
I'm hoping you won't leave this time
I'll wait some more
I'll be patient
It's hard to be so sure
It's difficult to be confident
These days away
The days spent apart
And memories decayed
And memories faded
Overthrown
Overpowered
You didn't feel like home
You didn't feel like where I belong
Stay up before you know
Remain awake before it's too late
It's too late
It's already too late
I need you home
I need you to come back
Oh no
Expressing disappointment or concern
