Harvest Moon
Magnificent Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've seen a glimpse of heaven
On those nights so long ago
Cast your bridge upon the water
Right towards us onto the shore

While it's all a long gone dream
I'm still there waiting
When I see you out there
When it's that time of the year
Bringing back the moments we shared
You don't need a reason
It's a change of the season
But I couldn't walk away
A part of me stayed
I'm still there waiting
Under the harvest moon

The nights were getting colder
I hoped your shine would never fade
But you told me it was over
You were leaving, and I cried in pain
Cried in pain

I know your still there
When it's that time of the year
Bringing back the moments we shared
You don't need a reason
It's a change of the season
But I couldn't walk away
A part of me stayed
I'm still there waiting
Under the harvest moon

They say that time will heal the pain
But when I see your face, it's all too real
Every time I look up in the sky
It makes me wanna cry after you

When it's that time of the year
Bringing back the moments we shared
You don't need a reason
It's a change of the season
But I couldn't walk away
A part of me stayed

I know your still there
When it's that time of the year
Bringing back the moments we shared
You don't need a reason
It's a change of the season
But I couldn't walk away
A part of me stayed
I'm still there waiting
I'm still there waiting
I'm still there waiting





Under the harvest moon

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Harvest Moon by Magnificent express the pain and longing of a person who has lost someone they love, but holds onto memories of the time they spent together. The opening lines speak of heaven, suggesting that the memories they share are precious and sacred. The metaphor of a bridge being cast upon the water, leading towards the shore, may represent the hope of reuniting with the person they have lost. Despite the fact that the relationship may be a distant memory, the singer is still waiting and holding onto the hope of rekindling it.


The chorus of the song describes the changing of the seasons and the memories that it brings back. This change of season could be referring to the autumn harvest season, which signifies a time of change and transition. It could also be interpreted as the change and transition of the relationship. The lyrics, "You don't need a reason, it's a change of the season" suggest that the memories are not solely associated with events or dates, but are instead a part of the natural rhythm of life.


The final lines of the song express the depth of the singer's pain and sense of loss. They cannot move on, and every time they see the face of the person they have lost, the pain feels raw and real.
