Serenade
M-Clan Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Did you see the lights
as they fell all around you
did you hear the music
serenade from the stars
Wake up, wake up
wake up and look around you
we're lost in space
and the time is our own
Whoa, whoa
iiiiiiiiii
Did you feel the wind
as it blew all around you
did you feel the love
that was in the air
Wake up, wake up
wake up and look around you
we're lost in space
and the time is our own
Whoa, whoa
iiiiiiiiii
The sun comes up
and it shines all around you
you're lost in space
and the earth is your own




Whoa, whoa
whoa

Overall Meaning

The song "Serenade" by M-Clan is a beautiful tribute to the beauty of the universe and our place within it. The lyrics take the listener on a cosmic journey through space, encouraging them to look up and appreciate the magic of the stars. The song begins with an invitation to witness a falling star and to hear the music of the universe - it is as though the whole world is singing a song just for you.


The lyrics then urge the listener to "wake up" and look around at the world they inhabit. Though we may feel lost and alone, floating through space, we are really in control of our own journey. The refrain "whoa, whoa" adds a sense of wonder and awe to the song. There is a sense of mystery and excitement in the air, as if anything could happen.


As the song progresses, we are reminded of the power of love and the joy of experiencing it in a world filled with possibilities. The sun rises, shining light on everything around us, and we are reminded that we are, in fact, not lost at all - the Earth is our home, and we are exactly where we need to be.
