Waste of Time
Silke Bischoff Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I wanna know if you're the one
The only moon behind the sun
We will walk into the light
When I close my eyes
I wanna know
I wanna know if you're the one
To lead me through the darkest night
When I close my eyes
I'm here on my own again
Dreaming of you
I'm dreaming of you
So please leave me now
Please leave me now
All in all it's just a waste of time
So please leave me now
Please leave me now
All in all it's just a waste of time
The lyrics to Silke Bischoff's "Waste of Time" carry a deep sense of longing for someone to share the journey of life with. The lyrics convey a sense of searching for a soulmate, someone who will lead the singer through the darkest night and into the light. The repeated line "I wanna know if you're the one" shows the singer's desperate need for clarity and certainty about this person. The metaphor used in the line "the only moon behind the sun" implies that this person is the light that illuminates the singer's life.
The chorus states that, despite the longing for this person, it's all just a waste of time because the person is not there. The line "I'm here on my own again" emphasizes the feeling of isolation and longing. The singer dreams of being with this person, but it remains unfulfilled. The repetition of "please leave me now" in the chorus is a plea for the obsession with this person to end, acknowledging that it's just a waste of time.
