The song “How Much Time Do We Have Left” by Klemen, Slovenia’s entry for Eurovision 2025, is a deeply emotional ballad inspired by a very personal experience — his wife, actress Mojca Fatur, was diagnosed with myelodysplastic syndrome, a rare form of cancer.
The lyrics are rooted in the moment when...
[Verse 1]
Our baby boy
Was crawlin' in the livin' room
You read a diagnosis
It said that you'd be dyin' soon
It was a sunny day
Through the window, there were people goin' on their ways
Our little child had the biggest smile
While we couldn't do nothin' but cry
[Chorus]
How much time do we have left together?
We never know
All I know is I don't wanna be here
Without your love
How much time do we have left together?
We never know
We never know
Wish we could take it slow
[Verse 2]
A man in white
With a room full of diplomas, tryna get it right
Could put you under hypnosis
By sayin' to give up the fight
But you were always determined to try
[Chorus]
How much time do we have left together?
We never know
All I know is I don't wanna be here
Without your love
How much time do we have left together?
We never know
We never know
But we keep standin' strong
[Bridge]
I admire your power, I admire your will
You made me question the world, made me question what's real
I admire your power, I admire your will
Your ability to heal
Oh, I admire your power, I admire your will
The way you never gave up until you grew wings
And you learned how to fly, made a loop in the sky
You landed right into my arms
[Chorus]
How much time do we have left together?
We never know
All I know is I don't wanna be here
Without your love
How much time do we have left together?
We never know
We never know
Wish we could take it slow
