Listen To Your Heart
Through Fire Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know there's something in the wake of your smile
I get a notion from the look in your eyes, yeah
We've built a love, that love falls apart
A little piece of heaven turns too dark

Listen to your heart when he's calling for you
Listen to your heart, there's nothing else you can do
I don't know where you're going, and I don't know why
Listen to your heart before you say goodbye

Say goodbye

Sometimes you wonder if this fight is worthwhile
The precious moments are all lost in the tide, yeah
They're swept away, nothing is what is seems
A feeling of belonging to your dreams

Listen to your heart when he's calling for you
Listen to your heart, there's nothing else you can do
I don't know where you're going, and I don't know why
Listen to your heart before you say goodbye

Listen to your heart when he's calling for you
Listen to your heart, there's nothing else you can do
I don't know where you're going, and I don't know why
Listen to your heart before you say goodbye

Say goodbye





Listen to your heart
Listen to your heart before you say goodbye

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Through Fire's song Listen To Your Heart are about a failing love and the need to listen to one's heart before making a decision to end the relationship. The opening verse talks about something being off in the relationship - a feeling that is accurately deciphered from the look in the eyes of the lover. The chorus advises listening to one's heart when it is calling out for help, and there is nothing else the person can do. The second verse alludes to the rarity of precious moments in life and how easily they are swept away, leaving behind a feeling of emptiness and longing for dreams that we might never belong to.


The culmination of the chorus repeats the advice to listen to your heart, go wherever it leads you, and make your own choices before saying goodbye. The overall message arrives at the importance of following one's instinct and intuition to make better decisions, especially when it comes to love and relationships that inevitably dictate a significant portion of our lives. Through Fire's song Listen To Your Heart reminds us to not ignore the little whispers and the call for help from our heart before making any essential life-changing decisions.

I agree 100%.... I'm not really a big fan of bands doing covers, especially songs that are already perfectly fine the way they are.... However, they did an amazing cover of this and true be told.... I think I might actually like this version better
