Beautiful Now
Zedd Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I see what you're wearing, there's nothing beneath it
Forgive me for staring, forgive me for breathing
We might not know why, we might not know how
But baby, tonight, we're beautiful now

We're beautiful now
We're beautiful now
We might not know why, we might not know how
But baby, tonight, we're beautiful now
We'll light up the sky, we'll open the clouds
'Cause baby, tonight, we're beautiful now, we're beautiful

We're beautiful

Wherever it's going, I'm gonna chase it
What's left of this moment, I'm not gonna waste it
Stranded together, our worlds have collided
This won't be forever, so why try to fight it?

We're beautiful now
We're beautiful now

We might not know why, we might not know how
But baby, tonight, we're beautiful now
We'll light up the sky, we'll open the clouds
'Cause baby, tonight, we're beautiful now, we're beautiful

We're beautiful

Let's live tonight like fireflies
And one by one light up the sky
We disappear and pass the crown
You're beautiful, you're beautiful

We're beautiful now
We're beautiful now (beautiful)
We're beautiful now
We're beautiful now

We're beautiful
We're beautiful, we're beautiful now
We're beautiful now
We're beautiful now
We're beautiful now
We're beautiful now, we're beautiful

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Zedd's song "Beautiful Now" speak of being present in the moment and embracing the beauty of life while it lasts. The first verse begins with the singer taking note of what his love interest is wearing, implying a sense of closeness between the two. He asks for forgiveness for staring at her and breathing, which suggests that the sight of her takes his breath away. The second line may also express a sense of vulnerability, where the singer is at the mercy of the sight of his love interest.


However, the chorus, which repeats itself twice, emphasizes the beauty of the moment, despite not knowing why or how it happens. The singer speaks of "lighting up the sky and opening the clouds" – which may symbolize the possibility of a life filled with magic and wonder when we embrace our present circumstances. He repeats the phrase "we're beautiful now" to emphasize the temporary nature of the moment, encouraging everyone to be present and appreciate the beauty of their surroundings.

@salamanther

Okay, here goes nothing.

I remembered this song after 2 years not listening to it. I was like, "what's it's title again? Beautiful day or something?" so I searched every possible title I could remember but some WEIRD results came out. Really weird... So, I try to remember in which YT video I heard this song and it lead me to a memeory of this song in a SLITHERIO video I once liked to watch so I searched and rememberd that the YTr's name was weird AF so I searched for a weird AF name on YT that did slitherio videos a while back and couldn't find anything. I then finally found it...

In an Agario video ;-;

I spent half an hour searching for this.

And it. Was. Worth. It.

2018 anyone?
