Overgaan
Will Tura Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Laat me nu maar liefst alleen
Ik wil niemand om me heen
Ik wil alles vergeten
Maar het doet toch zo'n pijn
Sinds je wegging van mij
Gaat er geen dag voorbij
Zal die kwelling dan nooit overgaan
Het moet toch ooit eens overgaan
Zoals nu kan het niet verder gaan
Langzaamaan breekt de nieuwe morgen aan
Vroeg of laat zal het wel overgaan
Voorbij
'T is allemaal voorbij
'T was zo mooi voor jou en mij
Maar de wereld blijft niet stilstaan
Als verliefden uit mekaar gaan
Want het leven gaat door
Al weet ik soms niet waar ik loop
Toch heb ik nog een beetje hoop
Dat die pijn eens zal overgaan
Het moet toch ooit eens overgaan
Zoals nu kan het niet verder gaan
Langzaamaan breekt de nieuwe morgen aan
Vroeg of laat zal het wel overgaan
Overgaan
Het moet toch ooit eens overgaan
Vroeg of laat zal het wel overgaan
"Overgaan" by Will Tura is a poignant reflection on the pain and turmoil one experiences after a relationship has ended. The lyrics open with a plea to be left alone, expressing the desire to isolate oneself from others and forget everything that has transpired. The overwhelming sense of heartbreak is revealed through the singer's admission that since their loved one departed, not a day goes by without thoughts of them lingering in their mind. This constant ache serves as the central theme throughout the song, highlighting the depth of the emotional wounds left behind.
As the verses progress, the singer questions whether this torment will ever cease, longing for relief from the anguish that occupies their every thought. The repetition of the phrase "Het moet toch ooit eens overgaan" emphasizes the desperation for the pain to subside, showcasing a glimmer of hope that this suffering cannot endure indefinitely. The lyrics convey a sense of resignation to the inevitable process of healing and moving on, acknowledging that time will eventually bring a new dawn and alleviate the rawness of the current emotional turmoil.
The concept of transition and change is further explored in the lyrics, underscoring the inevitability of life continuing despite the pain of separation. The acknowledgment that even the most beautiful moments eventually come to an end serves as a reminder of the transient nature of relationships and the resilience required to navigate through loss. Despite the uncertainty of the future and the disorientation that follows a breakup, the singer maintains a sliver of optimism, clinging to the belief that the intensity of their suffering will eventually diminish with time.
In the final repetition of the chorus, the declaration that "Vroeg of laat zal het wel overgaan" encapsulates the core message of the song - that despite the overwhelming grief and heartache, there is a fundamental belief in the inevitability of healing and closure. The cyclical nature of emotions, from despair to hope, echoes the universal experience of navigating through the aftermath of a breakup. "Overgaan" ultimately serves as a poignant exploration of the complexities of loss, resilience, and the gradual journey towards acceptance and moving forward.

Laat maar
Leave me be
Laat me nu maar liefst alleen
Let me be alone now, please
Ik wil niemand om me heen
I don't want anybody around me
Ik wil alles vergeten
I want to forget everything
Maar het doet toch zo'n pijn
But it still hurts so much
Sinds je wegging van mij
Since you left me
Gaat er geen dag voorbij
Not a day goes by
Zonder dat ik aan jou denk
Without me thinking of you
Zal die kwelling dan nooit overgaan
Will this torment never end
Het moet toch ooit eens overgaan
It has to come to an end at some point
Zoals nu kan het niet verder gaan
It can't continue like this
Langzaamaan breekt de nieuwe morgen aan
Slowly the new morning comes
Vroeg of laat zal het wel overgaan
Sooner or later it will pass
Voorbij
It's over
'T is allemaal voorbij
It's all over now
'T was zo mooi voor jou en mij
It was so beautiful for you and me
Maar de wereld blijft niet stilstaan
But the world keeps moving forward
Als verliefden uit mekaar gaan
When lovers part ways
Want het leven gaat door
Because life goes on
Al weet ik soms niet waar ik loop
Even though I sometimes don't know where I'm going
Toch heb ik nog een beetje hoop
I still have a little bit of hope
Overgaan
Passing
Het moet toch ooit eens overgaan
It has to come to an end at some point
Vroeg of laat zal het wel overgaan
Sooner or later it will pass
