Gravity of Love (Enigma)

Hello all !
I love this song very much,and it's lyrics gave me a lot of headache...I've been trying to understand it's meaning . So is there anyone out there willing to discuss it with me? I need some brilliant minds filled with imagination and brilliant ideas !

I would like to start with the title So i'm waiting for anyone's interest !

~ Enigma ~
"Gravity Of Love"

"O Fortuna velut Luna" ["O Fortune like the Moon"]

Turn around and smell what you don't see
Close your eyes ... it is so clear
Here's the mirror, behind there is a screen
On both ways you can get in.
Don't think twice before you listen to your heart,
Follow the trace for a new start.
What you need and everything you'll feel
Is just a question of the deal.
In the eye of storm you'll see a lonely dove
The experience of survival is the key
To the gravity of love.

"O Fortuna velut Luna"

[Whispers:]
[Woman :]
The path of excess leads to the tower of Wisdom
[Man :]
The path of excess leads to the tower of Wisdom

Try to think about it...
That's the chance to live your life and discover
What it is, what's the gravity of love

"O Fortuna velut Luna"

Look around just people, can you hear their voice
Find the one who'll guide you to the limits of your choice.
But if you're in the eye of storm
Just think of the lonely dove
The experience of survival is the key
To the gravity of love.

"O Fortuna velut Luna"
"O Fortuna velut Luna"

Hey Tigress,
I love Enigma. Absolutely.
As for this song...I'm not so sure what it actually means.
The title, imo, means the Importance Of Love. Cause thats also what Gravity can mean.
I gotta keep doing stuff so I'll be on and off.

Hello Ultimate ! Thanks for stopping by
Well, i was wondering about that also, but wasn't sure, thanks !
Now things start to make sense...but still...what do u think about these two lines?

In the eye of storm you'll see a lonely dove
The experience of survival is the key

What does the 'dove' have to do with 'experience' ? and what is the ' eye of storm' ? What do u think ?

You like Enigma? that's great, I'm also crazy about their songs, especially the " Love Sensuality Devotion: The Remix Collection "

hmmm....very interesting lyrics! In my opinion, I would take it to mean that in the heat of a bad situation (Eye of the storm) you'll see a small/lonely hope or silver lining(the Dove). and the key to seeing this hope is the experience of survival. As in you have been through similar things and know how to deal with them. And you chose to see the better part instead of the worser part!


OMG I love Enigma! there is no Group/Man like them/Him!!! Phenomenal!!! just amazing stuff. imo he is THEE best musician in the world.
Have you checked out Seven Lives Many Faces?

When you have problems..if you don't handle them...and run away from them....then u'r loss...but if u stay and face them...then this will be the key...to the survive...and this will mean to have true love hehe...sth like this...

Of course i heard Seven Lives, i love it, also : Why ( this song touches my heart oh so much) , Touchness, Valley of Dreams, Distorted Love, Crystal Tears, Invisible Love, Find Love, Beyond the Invisible...and gosh..many many more...! What do u think about Schiller..? if we are already here ..talking about great artists... what do you think about : Desire ? or Miles and Miles away?
