Like Im Gonna Lose You ft. John Legend
Meghan Trainor Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I found myself dreaming
In silver and gold
Like a scene from a movie
That every broken heart knows

We were walking on moonlight
And you pulled me close
Split second and you disappeared
And then I was all alone

I woke up in tears
With you by my side
A breath of relief
And I realized
No, we're not promised tomorrow

So I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
And I'm gonna hold you like I'm saying goodbye
Wherever we're standing
I won't take you for granted
'Cause we'll never know when, when we'll run out of time

So I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you

In the blink of an eye
Just a whisper of smoke
You could lose everything
The truth is you never know

So I'll kiss you longer baby
Any chance that I get
I'll make the most of the minutes
And love with no regrets

Let's take our time to say what we want
Here's what we got before it's all gone
'Cause no, we're not promised tomorrow

So I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
I'm gonna hold you like I'm saying goodbye
Wherever we're standing
I won't take you for granted
'Cause we'll never know when, when we'll run out of time

So I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you

I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
I'm gonna hold you like I'm saying goodbye
Wherever we're standing
I won't take you for granted
'Cause we'll never know when, when we'll run out of time





So I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you

Overall Meaning

The song "Like I'm Gonna Lose You" by Meghan Trainor featuring John Legend is a beautiful ballad about cherishing the present moment with a loved one because we're never promised tomorrow. The first verse describes how the singer was dreaming in silver and gold, which is a metaphor for a perfect and happy time with the loved one. However, the happiness is short-lived as the person disappears in a split second, leaving the singer all alone, which is a heartbreaking moment every broken heart knows. The sudden disappearance is symbolic of how we can lose someone dear in a blink of an eye, and this realization is the central idea of the song.


The chorus declares that the singer will love the person like they are going to lose them and hold them like they are saying goodbye. The idea is to make the most of the time they have together because they never know when time might run out. The second verse continues this theme, stating that one can lose everything in just the blink of an eye, and the truth is, we never know what the future holds. Therefore, the singer promises to kiss the person longer, cherish every moment, and love them with no regrets.


The song has an impactful message that reminds us to appreciate the people we love and never take them for granted. It urges listeners to live in the present moment, love deeply and cherish every moment because life is unpredictable. The lyrics are accompanied by a guitar, piano, and drum, which adds to the emotional depth of the song.

I found myself dreaming
I imagined something in my mind


In silver and gold
The dream was very beautiful


Like a scene from a movie
It was like a perfect and romantic moment


That every broken heart knows
It was a dream that is familiar to those who have had their hearts broken before


We were walking on moonlight
We were in a very romantic setting


And you pulled me close
You hugged me tightly


Split second and you disappeared
You vanished quickly


And then I was all alone
I was left by myself


I woke up in tears
I cried when I opened my eyes


With you by my side
You were beside me when I woke up


A breath of relief
I felt relaxed and relieved


And I realized
I suddenly understood something


No, we're not promised tomorrow
We don't know what the future holds


So I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you

In the blink of an eye
In an instant


Just a whisper of smoke
Something can disappear as quickly as smoke


You could lose everything
Anything can happen and you could lose all that you have


The truth is you never know
We can't predict the future


So I'll kiss you longer baby
I'll make sure to kiss you for a longer time

Whenever I have the opportunity

Like I'm Gonna Lose You
Seperti Aku Akan Kehilangan Kamu
- Meghan Trainor (ft. John Legend)-

I found myself dreaming
Saya menemukan diri saya bermimpi

It's over and gone
Sudah berakhir dan pergi
 
Like a scene from a movie
Seperti adegan dari film

That every broken heart knows
Bahwa setiap patah hati tahu

We were walking on moonlight
Kami berjalan di bawah sinar bulan

And you pulled me close
Dan Anda menarik saya mendekat 

Split second and you disappeared
Berpisah kedua dan Anda menghilang
 
And then I was all alone
Dan kemudian aku sendirian

I woke up in tears
Saya bangun menangis 

With you by my side
Dengan Anda di sisiku 
 
A breath of relief 
Nafas lega

And I realized
Dan saya sadar 
 
No, we're not promised tomorrow
Tidak, kami tidak berjanji besok

So I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you 
Jadi aku akan mencintaimu seperti aku akan kehilanganmu 

And I'm gonna hold you like I'm saying goodbye
Dan aku akan memelukmu seperti aku mengucapkan selamat tinggal 

Wherever we're standing
Dimanapun kita berdiri
 
I won't take you for granted
Saya tidak akan menerima Anda begitu saja 
 
'Cause we'll never know when, when we'll run out of time
Karena kita tidak akan pernah tahu kapan, kapan kita akan kehabisan waktu

So I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
Jadi aku akan mencintaimu seperti aku akan kehilanganmu 
 
I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
Aku akan mencintaimu seperti aku akan kehilanganmu

In the blink of an eye
Dalam sekejap mata 

Just a whisper of smoke 
Hanya bisikan asap

You could lose everything
Anda bisa kehilangan segalanya 
 
The truth is you never know
Yang benar adalah Anda tidak pernah tahu

So I'll kiss you longer baby
Jadi aku akan menciummu lagi sayang
 
Any chance that I get
Setiap peluang yang saya dapatkan

I'll make the most of the minutes
Saya akan membuat sebagian besar menit 
 
And love with no regrets
Dan cinta tanpa penyesalan

Let's take our time to say what we want
Mari kita luangkan waktu untuk mengatakan apa yang kita inginkan

Here's what we got before it's all gone 
Inilah yang kami dapatkan sebelum semuanya hilang

'Cause no, we're not promised tomorrow
Karena tidak, kita tidak dijanjikan besok

So I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
Jadi aku akan mencintaimu seperti aku akan kehilanganmu 
 
I'm gonna hold you like I'm saying goodbye
Aku akan memelukmu seperti aku mengucapkan selamat tinggal 

Wherever we're standing
Dimanapun kita berdiri 
 
I won't take you for granted
Saya tidak akan menerima Anda begitu saja 
 
'Cause we'll never know when, when we'll run out of time
Karena kita tidak akan pernah tahu kapan, kapan kita akan kehabisan waktu

So I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
Jadi aku akan mencintaimu seperti aku akan kehilanganmu

I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
Aku akan mencintaimu seperti aku akan kehilanganmu

I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
Aku akan mencintaimu seperti aku akan kehilanganmu 

I'm gonna hold you like I'm saying goodbye
Aku akan memelukmu seperti aku mengucapkan selamat tinggal 

Wherever we're standing 
Dimanapun kita berdiri 

I won't take you for granted 
Saya tidak akan menerima Anda begitu saja 

'Cause we'll never know when, when we'll run out of time
Karena kita tidak akan pernah tahu kapan, kapan kita akan kehabisan waktu

So I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
Jadi aku akan mencintaimu seperti aku akan kehilanganmu 
 
I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you
Aku akan mencintaimu seperti aku akan kehilanganmu

My husband really love this song and he can listen to this for hours, sadly he passed way 2 years ago, and it was always played on the radio after his passing, it makes me emotional everytine I hear this song. We’ve married for 15 years..but everytime I watch this video, it always makes me 😭
