Soon
Margaux Avril Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Soon
We will live and dream the same
There′s forgotten love that's just a name
It′s what we do to numb the pain
We'll
Cast aside the damaged days
We won't be found, we won′t be saved
We′ve come this far through storms we've braved
Everyone who knows you saw the tears
Cause everything you hide is oh so clear
We′ve already been through doubts and fears
And I know with you they disappear
It's
A stain of sand that lies for days
On a fading coast, at war with waves
Eventually it drifts away
The
Paradise of hopeless fools
We live inside without a clue
Of how the earth still moves with you
Everyone who knows you saw the tears
Cause everything you hide is oh so clear
We′ve already been through doubts and fears
And I know that with you they disappear
Even if you think the world forgives you
Forgives you this time
Even if you think the world forgives you
There's memories flowing through you
And everything we′ve said will stay true
Everyone who knows you saw the tears
Cause everything you hide is oh so clear
We've already been through doubts and fears
And I know that with you they disappear
Everyone who knows you saw the tears
Cause everything you hide is oh so clear




We've already been through doubts and fears
And I know that with you they disappear

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Margaux Avril's song Soon are filled with a sense of acceptance of past mistakes and hurts, moving on from the pain and looking towards a more hopeful future. The first stanza seems to focus on the idea that the singer and the person they are speaking to will live and dream together, sharing common experiences. They also acknowledge that there is a history of forgotten love and that people often use distractions or "numbing" activities to cope with pain. The second stanza expands on this theme, stating that they will "cast aside" the past and move forward together. They will not be found or saved by anyone else, but rather they have weathered storms and will continue to do so. The repetition of the line "everyone who knows you saw the tears" speaks to a form of shared vulnerability and possibly a sense of community. The third stanza uses the metaphor of a "stain of sand that lies for days" to describe the transience of pain and how it eventually fades away. The idea of a "paradise of hopeless fools" describes a situation where they are not aware of what is going on, but despite this, they are moving forward. The chorus repeats several times, emphasizing that the past is in the past and that memories will remain, but have no power over them anymore.


One of the interesting things about this song is Margaux Avril's unique voice, which effortlessly switches between French and English. She is a French singer-songwriter who rose to fame through the television talent show, The Voice France. The song was written by Avril herself and produced by Matthieu Mendes. It was released on her album "10 Am" in 2015. The song has a pop-infused sound that is both catchy and introspective. It is a song that speaks to those who have experienced hurt or loss in the past and are looking for a way to move on. The lyrics also touch on themes of self-discovery, shared experiences, and the power of vulnerability. The repetition of certain phrases and the use of metaphors create a dreamy atmosphere that draws the listener in.


In terms of the chords for the song, they are as follows: G - D - Am - C for the verse, and G - D - C - Am - D - G for the chorus. These chords are relatively simple, but they work well with the melody and allow Avril's voice to take center stage. Another interesting fact about the song is that it has been performed in both French and English, showcasing Avril's bilingual talent. It has also been covered by several other artists, including Karima Francis and the band Love in October. Overall, "Soon" is a beautiful and powerful song that speaks to the universal experience of moving on from the past and looking towards a brighter future.
