Some songs come together as pure magic, and Timeless Love is one of those moments. From the tender opening line to the soaring chorus, it’s a song that speaks to the kind of connection that transcends time and space.
With poetic lyrics and a dreamlike soundscape, Timeless Love became a defining moment for Horizons. It’s a duet that feels like a shared memory—a conversation between two people connected by something eternal. Let’s take you behind the music, the meaning, and what this track means to us as a band.
The Meaning Behind Timeless Love
Timeless Love explores the enduring power of love in all its forms. It’s a celebration of the connections that remain unbroken, no matter where life takes us.
Ayesha: “For me, this song is about the kind of love that feels infinite. It’s not just about romantic love—it could be a deep friendship or even the love you have for a moment in time that you wish could last forever.”
Michael: “It’s about the idea that love doesn’t really fit into a timeline. Some feelings are just… there. They don’t fade; they grow. That’s what we wanted the song to capture—that sense of timelessness, like it’s bigger than the two of you.”
The lyrics reflect this beautifully, weaving imagery of stars, light, and endless dreams. Lines like “Under neon skies we float, dreams of you my heart’s best note” evoke a sense of intimacy and wonder.
Ayesha: “That line makes me smile every time. It’s about how love turns ordinary moments into something extraordinary. It’s not just a feeling—it’s a melody you carry with you.”
The Creative Process
The journey to creating Timeless Love was as emotional as the song itself.
Michael: “I had this image in my head of two people drifting together either in space or through the clouds, as a euphemism for that feeling of utter elation you get when you’re with somebody you truly love, but it was Ayesha who turned it into something universal.”
Ayesha: “I think we spent the longest time on the chorus. We knew it had to feel big, like it was lifting you off the ground. But it also needed to stay grounded in the emotion of the song.”
The duet aspect wasn’t planned initially but became one of the defining features of the track.
Ayesha: “There was this one night where we couldn’t get the chorus to feel right. It was too polished, and we both knew it needed to be more raw, more real. So Michael said, ‘Let’s just sing it together and see what happens.’ We didn’t overthink it—just recorded it as we were, imperfections and all. That’s the take we kept. It wasn’t perfect, but it was honest.”
Michael: “Singing this together just felt right. It’s not about hitting every note perfectly—it’s about capturing the feeling. And that’s what we did.”
The Sound of Timeless Love
The production of Timeless Love reflects its theme: a delicate balance of grand and intimate. Soft piano and atmospheric synths create a sense of timelessness, while the cinematic strings bring a swelling emotional weight to the track.
Michael: “We wanted the song to feel like it was floating—like it could exist in any time or place. The synths give it that dreamy, weightless quality, while the strings and piano add warmth and depth.”
Ayesha: “The way the synths move reminds me of waves—gentle but constant, like they’re carrying you somewhere. It’s emotional, but it doesn’t try too hard—it just lets you feel what you need to.”
Where It Fits in Horizons
Timeless Love is a key moment in Horizons, transitioning the listener from the outward exploration of the earlier tracks to the more introspective middle section.
Michael: “This song feels like taking a breath in the middle of a journey. It’s that moment when you stop and realise what’s really been driving you forward—the people you love, the memories you hold onto. It’s about letting those connections ground you before you take your next step.”
Ayesha: “It’s also a reminder that, no matter where you are in the journey, the things you hold dear are what make it all worthwhile. Love, in all its forms, is what gives the journey meaning.”
What It Means to Us
For both of us, Timeless Love feels like a snapshot of who we are—not just as a band, but as people.
Ayesha: “This song reminds me to appreciate the little things—the quiet moments, the unspoken connections. It’s about being grateful for the love that shapes you, even if it’s not always perfect.”
Michael: “I think this track says the most about who we are as a band. It’s us at our most stripped-back and emotional, and I love that we could share it together. Recording it felt like a moment I’ll always remember.”
