It Feels So Good
John Kirby and His Orchestra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It just stops talkin'
There's no good-bye
You just start walkin'
Out into the chill of the night
Wonderin' if your timin' was right
But you still can't deny
We had it all for a minute or two
And there's no other place
Where the best that two dreamers can do
Turns out too good to be true
We really did it this time
There's no returning
We lit up the sky
And went down burnin'
If we're burned a little too bright
You showed me what beautiful light
You still can't deny
It was good while it lasted
We had it all for a minute or two
And there's no other place where the best of two dreamers can do
Turns out too good to be true
There's a star (up above the world so bright)
Fallin' fast (will we ever get it right)
Make a wish (wish I may I wish I might)
Have you back again for one more night
It was good while it lasted
We had it all for a minute or two
And there's no other place where the best of two dreamers can do
Turns out too good to be true
Too good to be true

Line by Line Meaning
Love doesn't die
Love may fade but it never truly dies
It just stops talkin'
People stop expressing their feelings and communicating with each other
There's no good-bye
There's no formal farewell or ending to the relationship
You just start walkin'
One person leaves without a final conversation or goodbye
Out into the chill of the night
Stepping out of the comfort zone and into an unfamiliar territory, possibly feeling lonely or isolated
Wonderin' if your timin' was right
Questioning whether the decision to leave was the right one
But you still can't deny
Despite everything, the love once shared cannot be denied or forgotten
We really did it this time
The relationship has ended for good this time
There's no returning
There's no going back to the way things were before
We lit up the sky
The relationship was passionate and intense like fireworks lighting up the night sky
And went down burnin'
The relationship ended badly and painfully, like a fire burning out of control
If we're burned a little too bright
The passion and intensity of the relationship may have been too much to handle
You showed me what beautiful light
Despite the ending, one person brought light and beauty into the other's life
There's a star (up above the world so bright)
A symbol of hope and aspiration, something to reach for
Fallin' fast (will we ever get it right)
The star may represent another chance at love, but the fear of repeating past mistakes lingers
Make a wish (wish I may I wish I might)
Hoping for something, but unsure if it will come true
Have you back again for one more night
Yearning for another chance to be with the person who has left
And there's no other place where the best of two dreamers can do
The relationship may have been the best two people could have imagined, but it still ended
Turns out too good to be true
What seemed like a perfect relationship was ultimately not meant to be
