Before
Wolf & Moon Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Place we haven't been
Place we haven't been Before
All these memories
Tasting better now
Better than they have before
We were signing out
Singing like we were young
So let's go back to
A place we've never seen
Place we never seen before
Before its going
Before its going
Before its going
To get dark
Before its going
Before we're growing
Before its going
To get dark
Before its going
Before we're growing
Before we know
How we end up
So!
Let's go back to
Place we haven't seen
Place we haven't been Before
All these memories
Tasting better now
Better than they have before
And all these melodies
We were signing out
Singing like they were young
Let's go back to
Place we haven't seen
Place we haven't been before
Before its going
Before its going
Before its going
To get dark
Before its going
Before we're growing
Before its going
To get dark
Before its going
Before we're growing
Before we know
How we end up
So!
Let's go back to
Place we haven't seen
Place we haven't been before
All these memories
Tasting better now
Better than they have before
And all these melodies
We were signing out
Singing like we were young
So let's go back to
A place we've never seen
Place we never seen before
Let's go back to
Place we haven't been
Place we haven't seen before
All these memories
Tasting better now
Better than they have before
The main theme of Wolf & Moon's song "Before" is the longing to return to a place the singer has never been to with a sense of nostalgia. The song's lyrics are open to interpretation, but the theme of wanting to go back to somewhere that is both real and imaginary is evident in lines like "Let's go back to a place we've ever seen" and "All these memories, tasting better now, better than they have before." The lyrics hint that this place has the potential to be a new beginning and encourage the listeners to take this opportunity to create more memories, reminiscent of their youth.
The song's repetition of the line "before it's going to get dark" creates a sense of urgency to return to a place that is becoming increasingly difficult to reach. The line also suggests that there is an imminent danger creeping up on the singer, their memories, and their youth. Finally, the chorus encourages the listener to return to a place they've never seen before, which one could interpret as being an energy or feeling that is yet to be experienced.
In conclusion, "Before" is a song that inspires the listener to reflect on the past, present, and future, simultaneously. The lyrics are poetic and open-ended, leaving the message up to the listener's interpretation.
