Sandra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All your wishes on a feather
Floating in the athmosphere
They might be drifting there forever
While you're wishing and waiting down here
Picking petals off a flower
To see if he's the one for you
Won't really give you a clue
Cuz you'll know it in a heartbeat
When somebody says your name
In one moment you will feel it
Things will never be the same
It's like standing (it's like standing)
On a mountain (on a mountain)
Above the clouds, above the rain
You'll look back and (you'll look back and)
You'll see clearly (you'll see clearly)
It was meant to be this way
In a heartbeat
Making up a million questions
Trying to get to know someone
You don't really have to ask them
Anything if they are the one
Cuz you'll know it in a heartbeat
When somebody says your name
In one moment you will feel it
Things will never be the same
It's like standing (it's like standing)
On a mountain (on a mountain)
Above the clouds, above the rain
You'll look back and (you'll look back and)
You'll see clearly (you'll see clearly)
It was meant to be this way
In a heartbeat
Just when you expect it the least
When you're happy being where you are
Out of the blue someone walks up to you
And you know it
Yeah you know he's the one
In a heartbeat
Cuz you'll know it in a heartbeat
When somebody says your name
In one moment you will feel it
Things will never be the same
It's like standing (it's like standing)
On a mountain (on a mountain)
Above the clouds, above the rain
You'll look back and (you'll look back and)
You'll see clearly (you'll see clearly)
It was meant to be this way
In a heartbeat
The lyrics of the song "In a Heartbeat" by Sandra reveal the idea of love at first sight. The song is primarily focused on exploring the feelings of falling in love quickly and irresistibly. The initial verses of the song depict the struggle of waiting for someone special and trying to find out if they are the one. The singer suggests that while trying to predict the future, the time is wasted on waiting and wishing.
However, the chorus brilliantly encapsulates the essence of the song. The culmination of the intense and sudden feeling that comes after seeing someone, hearing someone say your name, and recognizing that it is meant to be. That feeling is compared to standing on top of a mountain, above the clouds, and rain. This metaphor represents the feeling of ecstasy, excitement and happiness that one feels, whereas the clouds and rain symbolize any negative thoughts or external disturbances. The song concludes asserting, even though people generally have a million questions when trying to get to know someone, being in love comes naturally and is hard to miss when the right person appears.
