Jonas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But nothing remains the same, Lord knows why I do
Senseless conversations float around the room
My mind is on something else like falling in love with you
Can't remember who said it
That love is just a game
It's gone in a minute
Life has it ups and downs, a wild and lonely ride
I'm sure you've had your doubts 'bout coming out alive
Just listen to your conscience telling you to hold on
I know that you will find that nothing is really wrong
Love's gone in a minute
Oh, at least that what they say
And you know that when you're in it
That your poor heart is gonna break
Let it go, let it flow like a river, like a river
I've often sat and wondered
Am I wrong or am I right?
But the time I discover
You'll be gone and outta sight
Baby, I believe in you, oh, you know that I do
But nothing remains the same, Lord knows why I do
Senseless conversations float around the room
My mind is on something else, like falling in love with you
Can't remember who said it
That love is just a game
It's gone in a minute
And you wonder why you didn't play
Let it go, let it flow like a river, like a river
Let it go, let it flow like a river, like a river
In Jonas's song Like a River, the lyrics describe the ups and downs of a romantic relationship. The singer professes their belief and love for their partner, but acknowledges that things change and they don't always know why. The senseless conversations surrounding them make it hard for the singer to focus on their love, but they know that falling in love is worth it.
The lyrics also touch on the idea of love being seen as a game - something fleeting that can be lost at any moment. The singer acknowledges this, but still encourages their partner to hold on and let their love flow like a river. The chorus repeats this sentiment, imploring the listeners to let go and go with the flow of love, no matter where it may take them.
Overall, the song is an exploration of the uncertainty and risk that comes with being in love, but also the reward and joy that can be found when we allow ourselves to be swept up in its current.
