Don't Look Back
Télépopmusik Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sit still and close your eyes
What's behind the other door?
Ooh, no more silence
Don't kill this thing we got called love
Just searching for the perfect drug

When love comes calling
Don't look back
When love comes calling
Don't look away
When love comes calling
Don't look back
When love comes calling
Don't look away

And I'm standing over here
Watching you over there
Smiling, happy, unaware
Oh, life is spinning 'round
You're going underground
Forgetting who you are
Let's try and keep it
Just one more day

When love comes calling
Don't look back
When love comes calling
Don't look away
When love comes calling
Don't look back
When love comes calling
Don't look away

You take your love, throw it all around
Like it's nothing special, just a sound
Let me say one more thing:
I don't think you realize
That a day is like a year sometimes

When love comes calling
Don't look back
When love comes calling
Don't look away
When love comes calling
Don't look back
When love comes calling
Don't look away

When love comes calling
Don't look back
When love comes calling
Don't look away
When love comes calling
Don't look back




When love comes calling
Don't look away

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Télépopmusik's song "Don't Look Back" are primarily about maintaining love through its various ups and downs. The opening lines describe the need to calm the mind and focus on the present moment, rather than dwelling on the unknown future. The chorus encourages the listener to be open to love when it appears, rather than turning away from it due to uncertainty or fear. The second verse looks at the experience of watching someone else move through life without fully understanding their inner world, and the third and final verse urges the listener to embrace love in the present moment, recognizing that time is precious and love is fleeting.


Overall, the song is a tender and nostalgic meditation on the importance of love and connection in life. It emphasizes the need to let go of fear and uncertainty, and to be open to the possibility of love whenever it appears, no matter the circumstances.
