Novah Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The morning light tells me how to
forget the night and leave it all behind
Tell me where to go
when it's over
no way out
the circle has go in
all those days are gone
ohh ohh ohh oh
A restless soul cause for accion
in control but always under rong
where higher love in the way we go
a blood red sky
is tearing us apart
all those days are gone
all those days with you
ohh ohh ohh
I wan't you to know
wherever i go
life goes on
Won't let this walls
standing my way
won't be coming back
ohh ohh ohh
"Alaska" by Novah is a song about moving on from a past relationship and trying to find a new direction in life. The opening lines "The morning light tells me how to forget the night and leave it all behind" sets the tone for the song as it is about leaving the past behind and starting anew. The singer is lost and is seeking guidance as she asks "Tell me where to go when it's over, no way out, the circle has gone in." She cannot find a way out of the situation she is in.
The song talks about a "restless soul" that is in control but always under "rong" (wrong). The singer wants to move towards a higher love, but she is held back by the memories of her past relationship. The blood red sky signifies the pain and hurt that the singer is going through. The chorus talks about finding a new direction in life and moving on by saying "I want you to know wherever I go life goes on." The singer is determined to leave the past behind and does not want to be held back by any obstacles, which is evident when she sings "Won't let these walls stand in my way, won't be coming back."
Overall, the song is about finding the strength to move on from past relationships and finding a new direction in life. The lyrics are emotive and showcase the singer's vulnerability and strength.
