On and On
Thirdstory Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Moonlight to do drops
Dancing around until the warning sunlight came
When the sun had reached the sky
Almost wished that we would die
So we never have to see these moments end
Staring out the window pane as midnight turns to dawn
Let′s pretend the sun won't rise keep dancing till the warn
Please don′t go
You hold me like a mother's child and treat me with a lie
"When the night is over every thing will be all right"
So I kiss you underneath the stars
While tears are falling from our eyes
I won't let go
You should know
If I could a write you a love song
It would go on and on and on and on
Cause I′d sleep forever in your arms
So keep on holding on and on and on and on and on
Wondering when the winds will let me see your face again
Holding on but we both know that this might be the end
Wish for the moon as light shines
Through and the skies are glowing red
I won′t let go
You should know
If I could a write you a love song
It would go on and on and on and on
Cause I'd sleep forever in your arms
So keep on holding on and on and on and on and on
Bridge?????
If I could a write you a love song
It would go on and on and on and on
Cause I′d sleep forever in your arms
So keep on holding on and on and on and on and on
The lyrics of Thirdstory's song "On and On" depict a passionate and intense love that transcends time and circumstances. The song begins with a sense of adventure and freedom, as the singers dance and enjoy each other's company under the moonlight. They wish for the moment to last forever, even going as far as expressing a desire for death so they don't have to see it end. This showcases the depth of their connection and the fear of losing it.
As the night turns to dawn, reality starts to set in. They are aware that the fleeting nature of their time together means it might be the end. Despite this looming possibility, they hold on tightly to each other and engage in a moment of denial. The singer addresses their lover, acknowledging the lies they tell to make the situation more bearable. Tears fall from their eyes as they share a bittersweet goodbye under the stars.
The lyrics express a yearning for everlasting love and a desire to be wrapped in the arms of the person they care for. They understand that their love may not have a happy ending, but they would still choose to be with that person regardless. The bridge and last refrain reinforce this sentiment, emphasizing the enduring nature of their love and their willingness to hold on, even if it means defying reality.
