Time of My Life
Wolf Patrick Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I tongue the roof of my mouth
To new days of doubt without you
First gear
I face the trouble ahead
Final word has been said
I tell myself to
Hold on
It won't be long
Till I grow through this struggle
Time to wake up
Find my soul
Happy without you
Happy without you
Happy without you
Happy without you
Happy without you
Not called for weeks now
Six days without sleep means
I am a slave to my early grave
If I do not be brave, behave
Seize myself out of this mess
I have created of myself, yet again
Yet again I say
Hold on
It won't be long
till I grow through this struggle
Time to wake up
Find my soul
Happy without you
Happy without you
Happy without you
Happy without you
Happy without you
We go on
Heart beats strong
Still whole
Unbroken
As we divide
Our love, goodbye
Thanks for the time
Time of my life
Happy without you
Happy without you
Happy without you
Happy without you
Time
Time
Of my life
Time
Time
Of my life (So happy without you)
Time
Time
Of my life
Thanks for the time of my life (Happy without you)
Happy without you
Happy without you
The lyrics of Wolf Patrick's song, "Time of My Life," express the singer's resolve to move on from a past relationship that has caused him pain. Throughout the song, we see him struggling to let go of his feelings for his ex-partner and learn to be happy on his own. The first verse sees the singer reflecting on the vast geographical distance between himself and his ex-lover, and he tries to silence the memory of their time together. In the chorus, he repeatedly declares his newfound happiness in being without his former partner.
The second verse of the song highlights the singer's lack of sleep and feeling of despair, which has led him to realize that he must take control of his life and move on. The expression "Slave to my early grave" implies that the singer has been consumed by his own grief, and he now needs to take action to break free. The repetition of the chorus throughout the song provides continuity and emphasis on the singer's determination to move on and be happy without his former partner.
In conclusion, "Time of My Life" is a song that deals with the complex emotions of heartbreak and moving on. Through the lyrics, Wolf Patrick portrays the struggle of letting go of someone who has been an essential part of one's life and the journey towards finding happiness and peace within oneself after a significant emotional upheaval.

I can’t believe this song is 11 years old. That he is back and releasing new music makes me so happy. Such an icon. This is one my favourite songs of all time and I can’t wait for the day I get to see him live again
@demy.c
Hearing this, is like a magic spell.. Can't stop replaying it after I start listening to it. It becomes kind of haunting in a pleasant way...
@richardinthailand1
3:15 - 3:25 "thanks for the time of my life".. Makes me want to cry every time. And I've listened to it many many times. It is the most beautiful and heartbreaking thing I have heard in a song all year.
@MCRKilljoy4Life333
I'm so glad I discovered Patrick Wolf! He certain has an amazing voice.
@bridgetjones9183
Probably my favourite video, song and musician of all times. I just adore Patrick Wolf!
@shadow_finds_light
Nothing has encapsulated the mixed feelings of lost love and connection for me as much as this song. It’s true. You can be happy without them…. And have it be utterly ironic and sarcastic at the same time. “Thanks for the time of my life….” Sigh. The entire mantra in the middle… I’ve heard this hundreds of times yet it still makes my heart sink into my guts.
@tristessa1982
this has to be the best live performance ever! the sound is perfect, breathtaking!
@bluephoenixcos6082
I love the classical sound of this. The violin and piano together in the beginning are so soothing and beautiful! Partick Wolf certainly has a uinqie way of expressing himself.
