Turn Around
Onlap Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't turn around
I'm here and now
Don't you see that I am blind
Don't think about
Tomorrow night
Don't you see that's our last time

Will you remember everything
'Til the night is ending
We know it's leading to nothing
And I feel like it's fading

There was a time I had enough
And I came here for the summer
Didn't know what I would find at all
But I was about to break
Have you ever felt like this before?

I wasn't looking for anyone
I had nothing left to give
Convinced that I was really done
With love and everything
Have you ever felt like this before?

But you came with a smile that couldn't be true
And I knew that I was there for you
Don't you see that I am blind

We lived a kind of miracle
We locked the world outside the door
Day after day without a doubt
Now it's time to see the truth
Have you ever felt like this before?

But you came with a smile that couldn't be true
And I knew that I was there for you
Don't you see that I am blind

Just give us one more night
To feel what we're feeling
Just give us one more night
There's so much to say

'Cause we just can't go now
I will find a way




'Cause we just can't go away
Don't you see that I am blind

There are so many things I want to express to you before our time together ends

We can't bear the thought of parting just yet


I will find a way
I will do whatever it takes to try and make this connection last


'Cause we just can't go away
We can't fathom the thought of saying goodbye

J'admire vos musiques et vous suit depuis quelques années... Depuis
cette chanson "The Awakening"! Bravo pour les 1 millions de vues sur YT!
Je suis impressionné par votre liberté et votre indépendance, très peu
d'artistes ont ces points forts.
Je ne serai donner des mots, mais merci .

J'aimerai connaître votre parcours, votre indépendance, votre liberté,
votre amour pour la musique et le "rock". (je mets ces guillemets car
c'est un rock très différent de la définition du rock ou pour les fans
de rock "vrai rock". Et pour mon point de vue, du changement dans le
rock ne fait pas de mal tant que la musique est belle, paroles avec un
sens, votre musique je décris!)
Je suis un futur musicien qui veut découvrir et toucher le monde de la
musique, être indépendant des Labels, industries musicales, être libre.
Comment faites-vous avec les droits d'auteur?
Marketing digital?
Comment réussir à être indépendant, autonome et
avoir l'argent (lorsqu'on commence, cela doit être dur! enfin ce qui est
mon cas....)?
Que faites-vous comme jobs à côté (ou faites-vous que de la musique?)
 Bref, si vous pouvez raconter votre histoire, votre parcours et me donner des conseils, je suis preneur!

Cordialement, avec amour, de la France!
