Every Now And Then
Noisettes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I get a feeling
Like I've left something behind me
But I don't know what it is yet
Like I tied a piece of string
Round my finger
And I hope this will remind me
When I'm down, down, down
When I'm down, down, down
Every now and then
When I'm feeling lonely
I turn on my radio
Because I'm hoping that you're out there
It seems so long ago
I would see your writing
On a postcard or a note
And your stories would excite me
When I was down, down, down
When I'm down, down, down
Wherever you stop along the way
I hope the wind blows you
Back into my life
At the end of the road
And if I'm only dreaming
Then won't you tear the curtains down
And let the light back into this empty room?
Kissing in your room
Climbing out the window
Trying not to make a sound, but
With my first love on my mind
You see, we were never through
I never said I loved you
Even when we said goodbye
Never thought it was the last time
Down, down, down
And I'm down, down, down
Wherever you stop along the way
I hope the wind'll blow you
Back into my life
At the end of the road
And still, every now and then I hear a voice
Singing to me softly
Deep inside my head
And it sings till I fall asleep
If I'm only dreaming
Won't someone tear the curtains down?
Tear the curtains down
Every now and then
I get a feeling
It's like I've left something behind
But I don't know what it is yet
Every now and then
When you're feeling lonesome
Just sing this melody
And remember where your going
When you're down, down, down
When you're down, down, down
When you're down, down, down
When you're down, down, down
When you're down, down, down, down
When you're down, down, down, down, down
Oh I said
The lyrics of Noisettes' "Every Now And Then" talk about feelings of nostalgia and the longing to reconnect with a lost love. The singer reminisces about the past and wonders if they left something important behind that they can't remember. The image of tying a string around their finger serves as a metaphor for trying to hold onto memories of the places they have been and the people they have known. The singer then turns to the radio to listen to music, hoping to hear the voice of their lost love. They imagine that the wind will bring them back together and sing a melody that will guide them home. The final verse suggests that the singer is thinking back to a specific moment in their past when they were with their first love, kissing in a room and trying to be as quiet as possible. Though they never openly expressed their feelings, the singer still holds onto hope that they will reunite someday.
The song explores themes of nostalgia and the power of memories over time. It expresses the bittersweet feelings of looking back on the past and realizing how much has been lost, as well as the hope of reconnecting with someone who was once important. The melody is both wistful and optimistic, conveying a sense of longing through the use of minor chords and a slow tempo.
Overall, "Every Now And Then" is a poignant reminder of how important it is to cherish the people and moments we have in our lives, as they may not be there forever. It encourages listeners to hold onto their memories and pay attention to the small things that make life meaningful.
Line by Line Meaning
Every now and then
Occasionally, I experience a certain feeling
I get a feeling
I feel a certain way
Like I've left something behind me
It’s as if I’ve forgotten something or someone important to me
But I don't know what it is yet
I’m unsure about the thing or person that I’ve forgotten
Like I tied a piece of string
Similar to tying a reminder on my finger
Round my finger
I use this reminder to jog my memory
And I hope this will remind me
I hope this remembrance will jog my memory
Of the places I have been through
I hope to remember the places I’ve been to
When I'm down, down, down
When I’m feeling low, sad and unhappy
When I'm feeling lonely
When I’m feeling isolated and without companionship
I turn on my radio
I switch on the radio looking for a connection
Because I'm hoping that you're out there
I hope that someone can identify with my feelings
It seems so long ago
It feels like a long time has passed
I would see your writing
I remember seeing your letters
On a postcard or a note
The letters I remember were on postcards or notes
And your stories would excite me
I would get excited by the stories that you wrote
Wherever you stop along the way
Wherever your journey takes you
I hope the wind blows you
I hope that fate takes you to me
Back into my life
I hope that you re-enter my life
At the end of the road
When your journey is over
And if I'm only dreaming
If this is just a dream
Then won't you tear the curtains down
Could you make my dream a reality?
And let the light back into this empty room?
Could you fill this emptiness I feel with your presence?
Kissing in your room
We would kiss in your room
Climbing out the window
We would sneak out the window
Trying not to make a sound, but
Attempted to avoid making any noise
With my first love on my mind
Thinking about my very first love
You see, we were never through
In truth, our relationship has never really ended
I never said I loved you
I realized that I’ve never actually expressed my love to you
Even when we said goodbye
We both knew that our goodbye was not really the end
Never thought it was the last time
We both knew we were going to see each other again
And still, every now and then I hear a voice
Even after all this time, I sometimes hear your voice
Singing to me softly
Speaking sweetly and gently
Deep inside my head
In the depths of my mind
And it sings till I fall asleep
It continues singing until I fall asleep
When you're feeling lonesome
When you’re feeling alone
Just sing this melody
Sing this song
And remember where your going
Remember the direction you're headed in
