Lyrics meaning
The song is about a couple who still value their life and love together, but feel they have let too much time pass without giving each other attention. The speaker suggests making time to be alone and reconnect. The mood moves from gentle regret toward hope and excitement: seeing the beloved makes the relationship feel new again, and the couple is urged not to delay.
โFly awayโ and โspread our wingsโ suggest leaving ordinary routines behind, not necessarily escaping the relationship. A trip somewhere far away becomes a way to focus on each other. โTime fliesโ means that time passes quickly, while โno-oneโs to blameโ softens the regret: the distance seems to have grown without either person being at fault. โStarting overโ means renewing their closeness, rather than erasing their shared past.
The lyrics hold both comfort and urgency. The coupleโs love is described as still special, and they have grown together, so this is not simply a story of love lost. Yet the repeated invitation implies that affection alone may not be enough; they need to act and make time for one another. โStarting overโ could mean returning to the easy intimacy of their early days, or creating a fresh phase in a relationship that has changed.
