Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Believe me
I'm not afraid
Teach me
To learn your ways
Carry me
Under your wings
In your perfect time
Only you
Can make me shine
Only you
Can days be right
In your perfect time

I know You told me that I'm not alone
You know I couldn't do it on my own
See my eyes are older now
Broken dreams behind
Fill my heart with precious love
I know it's there to find

Believe me
I'm not afraid
Teach me
To learn your ways
Carry me

In your perfect time

Only you
Can make me shine
Only you

In your perfect time

precious love
You gave me
precious love
I know forgiveness is the key not pride
I want to heal this pain I hide inside
Free my fears and promise me
That you won't let me go
You're the one to comfort me
The past my God You know

Believe me
I'm not afraid
Teach me
To learn your ways
Carry me
Under your wings
In your perfect time

Only you
Can make me shine
Only you




Can days be right
In your perfect time

Overall Meaning

Moya Brennan's song Perfect Time is a soulful ballad that expresses the singer's longing and desire to be led by a higher power. The opening lines of the song, "Believe me, I'm not afraid," set the tone for a message of trust, hope, and faith. The singer acknowledges that she needs help and guidance to "learn [His] ways." She surrenders herself and entrusts herself to Him, to "carry [her] under [His] wings" in what she trusts to be His perfect timing.


The song's lyrics convey the singer's gratitude for the love that God has given her. She acknowledges that her past has been difficult, with "broken dreams behind" her, but she looks forward to a brighter future with God's love filling her heart. With her older and wiser eyes, she recognizes that she cannot do it alone, but she knows that God will be with her every step of the way.


The chorus of the song declares that only God is capable of making her "shine" and that only He can set her "days" right. The singer's reliance on God's "perfect time" is a recurring theme throughout the song. She acknowledges that even though God has promised not to let her go, she still needs to be taught and to learn His ways. Perfect Time is a heartfelt message of trust, hope, and faith in God.

Hope is your survival
A captive path I lead

Joao Sousa

Enya ,, Seus olhos revelam coisas que já vi ..Suas musicas contam algo que também já vivi .Sua expressão mostra uma alma que já possa ter conhecido ,apenas não lembro .Enya canta sonhos que já sonhei ..Enya fala de lugares em suas musicas , lugares que já vi .Enya sopra como um vento leve que refresca e acalma a alma .Não existe ventos tempestuos na melodia calma dos olhos da Enya .....

Adara
