Fascination
Hugo Winterhalter and His Orchestra Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It was fascination
I know
And it might have ended
Right then, at the start
Just a passing glance
Just a brief romance
And I might have gone
On my way
Empty hearted

It was fascination
I know
Seeing you alone
With the moonlight above
Then I touch your hand
And next moment
I kiss you
Fascination turned to love

It was fascination
I know
Seeing you alone
With the moonlight above
Then I touch your hand
And next moment




I kiss you
Fascination turned - to - love

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Hugo Winterhalter and His Orchestra's song Fascination depict a fleeting moment of love at first sight. The singer acknowledges that it could have just been a passing fancy, a brief romance that ended right then and there, leaving them empty-hearted. However, the spark was there, and as they saw their love interest alone in the moonlight, they couldn't resist reaching out to them. With a simple touch and a kiss, fascination turned into love, and thus, the beginning of an enduring romance.


The lyrics, although simple, perfectly capture the emotions of falling in love unexpectedly. The singer's admission that it could have just been a passing fancy is a relatable sentiment, as sometimes we meet someone who we think could be the one, but things don't quite work out. The lyrics also convey the idea that sometimes love comes in unexpected ways and that it is beautiful when it happens.


Line by Line Meaning

It was fascination
There was a sense of intense attraction


I know
I am aware of this feeling


And it might have ended
This feeling could have stopped


Right then, at the start
At the very beginning of this experience


Just a passing glance
A brief moment of noticing


Just a brief romance
A short-lived affair


And I might have gone
I could have left


On my way
Continued with my journey


Empty hearted
Without any passion or love


Seeing you alone
Observing your solitude


With the moonlight above
Illuminated by the moon's glow


Then I touch your hand
Physical contact was made


And next moment
Immediately after


I kiss you
We kissed each other


Fascination turned to love
The attraction became a deep feeling of affection and care
