Without Warning
Thomas Ian Nicholas Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Slow down
Life will pass you by inside the
Blink of your eyes
But don't look
You will never find what you want
Until it finds you

Ooh it comes without warning
There's no time for caution
Nothing to fear and nothing you'd see
It comes without warning
Like something familiar
But nothing that I was expecting to need

Watch out
Just beware that what you want is
waiting for you
But don't stop
Keep on moving toward tomorrow
There's more then you Know

Oh it comes without warning
There's no time for caution
Nothing to fear and nothing you'd see
It comes without warning
Like something familiar
But nothing that I was expecting to need

Life has everything that you've been waiting for
All you've got to do is just keep wanting more

Oh it comes without warning
There's no time for caution
Nothing to fear and nothing you'd see
It comes without warning




Like something familiar
But nothing that I was expecting to need

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Thomas Ian Nicholas's song Without Warning speak to the importance of living in the present moment and being open to unexpected opportunities that may come our way. The first few lines caution listeners to slow down and pay attention to the world around them because life can pass by in the blink of an eye. However, the song also suggests that we can't force opportunities to come our way, and we may not even know what we truly want until it finds us. The chorus emphasizes that these opportunities may come without any warning and with no time for caution or fear. They may be familiar in some way, but not something we were expecting or even knew we needed. The song encourages listeners to keep moving forward and wanting more out of life, because there is so much that we have yet to discover.


Overall, the message of the song is one of hope and optimism - we should live in the moment and stay open to unexpected opportunities, rather than letting fear or uncertainty hold us back. By embracing uncertainty and keeping our minds open, we can find ourselves in new and exciting situations that we never even imagined were possible.

Great song! I got turned on to your music by my son who met you last night in Sacramento and promised to buy 2 CD's from you if you did the rookie of the year "hen en ree ee row oh eh en gar ar tner er" with him. It was funny when you were like, no... lemme show you how to do it right. I know it was a big deal for him because when he was younger he watched Rookie of the year at least once a day. His mom and I got a kick out of the video his fiance shot of you guys doing the echo. Thanks for being cool about it.
