Now and Then
Oak Oak Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We found each other
And without you I don't know
Where I'd have been we have soothed each
Other's quiet desperations
And loved each other every now and then
We have made each other
You have sometimes felt my
Teardrops on your hand
And when we can't control our lonely feelings
We love each other now and then
We're a little less than lovers but
A little more than friends
Clinging to each other until
The darkness ends
We have held each other time and time again
And loved each other every now and then
Some day I'll find the one who's meant for me
And I that some day you'll find love again
But we'll always have the
Very special memories
Of the love we gave each other now and then
We're a little less than lovers but
A little more than friends
Clinging to each other until
The darkness ends
We have held each other time and time again
And loved each other every now and then
We have held each other time and time again
And loved each other every now and then
The lyrics of Oak Oak's song "Now and Then" convey the essence of a relationship between two people who are a little less than lovers but a little more than friends. The song describes the moments of support, comfort, and love that the two share, especially when they are going through the rough patches of life. The line "When we needed help the most / We found each other" is a testament to how they've been there for each other in their time of need. The phrase "quiet desperation" further suggests the relatable idea that we all go through our difficult times alone, but having someone by our side can make all the difference.
The song acknowledges that the two might not end up together in the long run, but the memories they share will always be special. The lines "Some day I'll find the one who's meant for me / And I that some day you'll find love again" suggest a certain bittersweet quality to their connection. However, the message of the song seems to be that even though they can't control their feelings and they might not end up together, they will always have each other's backs.
Overall, the song "Now and Then" is a reflection on a relationship that is not quite romantic but is still deeply meaningful. Oak Oak's lyrics are an accurate depiction of the comforting and supportive role that a friend can play in our lives, especially during times of hardship.
