Never More
Laurent Voulzy Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Et plus jamais mes doigts dans ses boucles d'or
Plus jamais dans mes bras son corps
Ni plus jamais la nuit, le feu des météores
Quand on dit qu'on dort.
Quand on dit ...
Mais Never more

Plus jamais ses fous rires dans les boutons d'or

Et ses sanglots derrière le store
Ni plus jamais tout bas, encore...
Dieu l'amour et fort,
Si fort
Mais Never more

Ouh ouh ouh ouh

Au fond de la mer au milieu des amphores,
Mon coeur jeté par-dessus bord,
Chante pour les sirènes, les pêcheurs de trésor
Ah ! Je l'aime encore.
Plus jamais
Never more
Plus jamais
Oh oh oh donc jamais

Plus jamais
Oh oh oh donc jamais.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Laurent Voulzy's song Never More convey a sense of nostalgia and loss over a past love. The singer laments that he will never again be able to touch his lover's golden curls, hold her body in his arms, or experience the magic of meteor showers together. He reflects on their shared moments of joy and sorrow, laughter and tears, but realizes that they are now all in the past, never to be relived again.

The repetitive phrase "Never more" underscores the finality of the breakup and the sense of resignation that the singer feels. Even though he still loves his former partner and sings for her from the depths of the sea, he recognizes that they can never be together again. The haunting melody and sparse instrumentation create a sense of melancholy that echoes the feelings expressed in the lyrics.

Overall, the song expresses a deep sense of longing for something that is gone forever but also a sense of acceptance that comes with the passage of time.
