Am I On Pause
Jan Johnson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

running down that street,
heading for the void,
just to catch a moment,
you stole the,
love so fragile,
will it break,
into a million pieces,
will you forsake me?
Time is an infinite place,
but it may pause,
the time to fall,
my time is an infinite space,
AM I ON PAUSE?,
or will I fall... In love again?,
in love again?,
in love again...
I thought this place was lonely,
still i breathe,
a new sense of freedom,
in me,
as i walk forward into the light,
i look it into aqua,
and feeling so high.
time is an infinite place,
but it may pause,
the time to falll,
my time is an infinte space,
am i on pause,
or wil i fall...
Time,
is an infinite place,
but it may pause,
the time to fall,
my time is an infinite space,
am i on pause or will i fall in love again,




in love again,
in love again...

Fantastic track, this is the best that can be

@epyonv8108

Always wondered why a version like this, Of a beast of a track wasn't released. Because there was none. Couldn't be more blessed to see him and Carl play multiple times 20+ years ago. Quality mix, Bravo.

This is unbelivable buddy!! I have left a post on the private facebook group called the "Oakenfolk" regarding your reconstruction! Simply incredible, a true masterpiece. Thank you so much for all the Perfecto People who have ever been after a full mix of this!! Take a bow kind sir x

@@thefirstladyoftrance it's a reconstruction which is probably the closest you will get.

@deepconnection1169

You are just the best! Thank you so very much. I was worried about giving it the proper homage it deserved. Thanks so much for your very kind words. I’m so happy you like it. 😎😎😜πŸ₯°

@@deepconnection1169 Do you have a high quality mp3 that you could share of this please? :)

@mp-kg5lb

awesome job, it sounds just like the mix on miami!

@Cykelpump33

Absolutely sublime this. While i understand why Oakie didn't release this (perhaps the main melody was a bit too cheesy) it's still another fantastic remix.
