Heaven
Urban Clearway Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Droplets of light
Piercing through this ever-lasting darkness
Searching for life
So we don't have to feel so alien
What is the price?
To send my soul back into the light
Would it feel right?
(Chorus:)
Come with me
I don't wanna be where you ain't gonna be
Fly with me
We can search the distant galaxies
Dream with me
Connect to our sub-conscious unity
Trust in me
Cos heaven's gonna be wherever we will be
Hold on tight
I don't want us to have separate destinies
I would fight
Against any force trying to tear us apart
Fate entwined
Is the only kind of fate I've ever dreamed
Love's divine
The bliss we have will push through any boundaries of time
(Chorus)
Be my light
Shine it upon me like a warm sun
Raise my heights
In spiritual bliss where we were meant to be
Take a dive
Swim in to the depths of eternity
You & I
In your arms is where I want to live and die
(Chorus)
The opening lines of "Heaven" by Urban Clearway describes the illusion of darkness that surrounds us, and how we seek answers to our existence. The singer searches for purpose and meaning in life, an escape from feeling like an outsider. They question what it takes to achieve that inner peace and whether it's worth it. The chorus invites the listener to accompany the singer on their journey to the unknown, to soar across the galaxies and unlock our subconscious unity. It's a plea to hold on tight and not let anything tear them apart. They long for a love that transcends the boundaries of time and space, where they can bask in spiritual bliss and experience the fullness of life.
The lyrics capture the human yearning to connect with something beyond ourselves, whether it be a higher power, the universe, or simply another person. It speaks to the desire for a life fulfilled by purpose, love, and meaning. The metaphor of light is used throughout the song, representing hope, truth, and enlightenment. The idea of heaven is not limited to a religious interpretation but opens up the concept of heaven as wherever we choose to be.
