Brighter Days
Ronan Keating Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Chased my share of rainbows in the sky
Before I stopped to ask the question why
I've fallen out of love too many times
But now I see
The possibilities
Of how my life could be
[Chorus]
From any other love I'd walked away
Love is temporary I would say
Now each night I find a reason to stay
With you there's always brighter days
I've broken a heart, a heart or two
I've let the curtain fall I guess, it's true
The thought of something borrowed,
Something blue
Was something that I never could pursue
But now you're here
My doubt has disappeared
The clouds are gone, it's clear
[Chorus]
Even on the coldest nights
Even when the sun won't shine
It's sweeter in the morning time
Just knowing that you're there
[Chorus]
The lyrics of Ronan Keating's "Brighter Days" speaks about a man who has experienced love's ups and downs, but with the coming of his present lover, he has come to discover the possibilities of a beautiful life they could have together. He highlights that he has lived a lot in his life and has chased after rainbows without ever questioning why he did so. He also admits to falling out of love many times and breaking a heart or two. He reflects on how he couldn't pursue a love that truly mattered to him because of his doubts and fears. However, the coming of his present lover has erased all his doubts, and there's a new beginning with the possibility of brighter days.
The lyrics, "From any other love, I'd walked away, Love is temporary, I would say." seem to suggest that the singer had only experienced fleeting romance in the past, and possibly never found a love that was worth holding onto. However, with his present lover, he sees that there is something worth holding onto, and he finds a reason to stay each night. Even on the coldest and darkest nights, the presence of his lover gives him hope, and he knows that there are brighter days ahead.
