About the song
The song “Back in Time” by Glow is about longing for a love that once felt deep and real but has now changed or faded. It shows the pain of missing someone, the confusion of mixed feelings, and the wish to return to better days. The main theme is heartbreak, emotional struggle, and the desire to relive the past.
In the beginning, the singer holds on to the hope that the connection can still be saved. They remember how strong the love used to feel—like flying high and touching the sky—but now that feeling is slipping away. They don’t want to lose their mind over it, but the memories are strong and hard to let go.
As the song continues, the mood shifts. The singer remembers being left alone and starts to question if the love was ever real. The other person now feels distant and cold, and trust is broken. Even though there’s still a part of them that wants to go “back in time,” they’re also hurt by the way things turned out. The song captures that push and pull between holding on and letting go.
Lyrics
Slowly,
Will you promise me that I′ll be one and only
Can’t you feel the rush?
Don′t leave me
All the memories of you are fading slowly
Will the time pass by?
Everytime you pick me up
I fly
Through the night touch the skies so high
I don’t wanna lose my mind
Tonight
Fill me up hold me down
So, don’t you wanna
Follow me through
All the days we′ve
Been so into
One another
Can′t you take me
Back in time when
I couldn’t breath without you
I don′t wanna lose my mind
Tonight
Fill me up hold me down
So don’t you wanna
Follow me through
All the days we′ve
Been so into
Slowly,
I remembered all the times you left me lonely
Was it all enough
Can’t feel
Anything you say it sounds like you′re lying
I don’t want your love
Everytime you pick me up
I fly
Through the night touch the skies so high
I don’t wanna lose my mind
Tonight
Fill me up hold me down
So, don′t you wanna
Follow me through
All the days we′ve
Been so into
One another
Can’t you take me
Back in time when
I couldn′t breath without you
I don’t wanna lose my mind
Tonight
Fill me up hold me down
So, don′t you wanna
Follow me through
All the days we’ve
Been so into
Playing the games you′ve made
But it made me hate you instead
Why do you feel so cold
Like I want you but your love is sold
So, don’t you wanna
Follow me through
All the days we’ve
Been so into
One another
Can′t you take me
Back in time when
I couldn′t breath without you
I don’t wanna lose my mind
Tonight
Fill me up hold me down
So don′t you wanna
Follow me through
All the days we’ve
Been so into
