Only This Moment

Genius song, rediscovered it and I am completly addicted to it at the moment.

I think (and this is probably partly based on what is going on in my life and therefore head at the moment) that the song is about two friends that harbour secret feelings for each other, but that see barriers to their relationship. However they get themselves into a situation where they are forced to confront their feelings (out dancing, up the eifel tower, what ever). In my head i have them ooking into each others eyes and guessing at what the other is feeling.

At the start the guy is overly concerned with the consequences of the relationship, what ever they may be, the entire second verse seems to me to be about him backing away, attempting to convince himself that what hes seeing from the girl isnt real, that its all in his head. he's possibly convinced himself that if he can ride out his feelings for her for longer they will eventually fade, "deep down inside i know our love will die"

The girl then sees the indecision, and steps up her part, forcing him to accept that what hes seeing is true. to me "play or you'll never know" is a refernce to the gamble he has to take to find out whether he has the chance to make something happen. She introduces the idea of fate, and that they were pre-ordaned to be together somehow, before repeating the original plea to him to take the chance, but a little uncertain of whether he will or wont, she tells him that the choice is totally his to make, a kind of 'im here if you want me' moment.

The guy then sees whats being communicated, the clouds parting is a pretty standard term for clarity taking the place of confusion, the angel obviously needs no description, and he accepts that they do have a chance at being together. The "falling in love isnt part of a (the?) plan" line, to me, seems to say that this wasnt what either of them set out for, that it has just happened, mabye it complicates their lives somewhat.

the mixing of reason with lust is his last shred of doubt. the situation is difficult and hard to work around, so therefore can it happen, will the relationship work? the lust is what he feels for her, the part of him that wants to surrender to what is happening. he decides to 'go with the flow' and take his chance despite that fact that doing so could cause irrevicable damage to their current relationship, he accepts that love can hurt.

Finally they kiss and the moment is complete, they each know where the other stands, they are ready to fight past the problems their relationship throws up.

probably wrong, but thats what i think :)

This song definitely captures romance as it truly is.

Correct me if the lyrics are wrong.

I think this song is alot about the feeling of lust being mixed up with love. The two people are really unsure what's going to happen past this moment that they have together but they are willing to enjoy it while it lasts. The guy is pretty unsure about what his feelings are but the girl is just waiting for him to make his decision about her.

Beautiful song. Fell in love with it as soon as I saw it. The video clip is pretty awesome as well.

yup, i agree this is a very amazing song. 'the understanding' is growing on me loads. "but love without pain isn't really romance" - such a true line, i love it.

I've been addicted to this song ever since I first heard it... beautiful lyrics and vocals.

Clouds in my head Have been parted with grace By the voice of an angel Revealing her face And her words, they make sense, and I do(n't) understand Falling in love isn't part of the plan Forces within me Mix reason with lust But I'll try to accept it and not make it worse Cause I know I might lose it by taking the chance But love without pain isn't really romance

I listened a bunch of times and cross-referenced with other sites, and this is what i came up with.

Lovely song about guys who can't read girls' emotions and feelings.

this song is simply beautiful.

this song describes my life.

a couple things wrong with your lyrics, second verse, the ocean should be devotion.

then We haven't decided should be What heaven decided

then the last verse before the last part that is repeated is:

Clouds in my head have been parted with grace By the voices of an angel revealing her face and her words they make sense 'n' I do understand Falling in love isn't part of a plan

Forces within me mix reason with lust, but I'll try to accept it and not make it worse 'cause I know I might loose it by taking the chance, (But) love without pain isn't really romance

and the last repeated part most importantly is:

Only this moment Holds us together Close to perfection Nothing else out there Always beside her Trusting my senses Deep down inside I know love will survive

true. this song is addictive.

it totally describes my feeling when i'm with someone i'm deeply in love with -- close to perfection, nothign else out there.
