Royksopp Only This Moment

This song from Royksopp has an amazing combination of modern electronic sounds, singable melodies, and emotional lyrics. It is a song of two lovers, caught up in the moment, so attracted, enraptured, intrigued with one another, however, scared of the other person's intentions, they dare not let themselves get carried away to fall in love for fear of being hurt.



This song admits the dangerous comination of lust and insecurity. However, I am unsure of the ending of the lyrics, is it "Deep down inside I know our love will survive" or "Deep down inside I know I will survive?" The first resolves their insecurity and the second accepts it.




Only This Moment



Only this moment (Holds us together)
Close to perfection (Nothing is out there)
No one to guide us (Lost in the senses)
Deep down inside I know our love will die


Only this moment (Holds us together)
Lost in confusion (Feelings are out there)
Scared of the ocean (Doubting intentions)
Deep down inside I know our love will die

Stay or forever go
Play or you'll never know
We haven't decided
You can't deny it's all you've been waiting for


Stay or forever go
Play or you'll never know
Your spirit's divided
You will decide if I'm all you've been waiting for

Clouds in my head have been parted with grace
By the voice 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, makes reason with lust
But I try to accept it and not think it works
Because I know I might lose you by taking the chance
But love without pain isn't really romance


Only this moment (Holds us together)
Close to perfection (Nothing is out there)
Always beside us (Ttrusting my senses)
Deep down inside (I know i will survive)

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