Lyrics
Silver, silver baby
Addressing someone affectionately as "silver."
Been trying hard to get you
Struggling to remove the person from thoughts.
Off my mind
Difficulty in forgetting or moving on.
It ain't right
Expressing the incorrectness of the situation.
How you're taking all my days
Feeling consumed by the person's presence and impact.
I'd prayed that you were married
Wishing the person was already committed to someone else.
So I could have had a reason
Desiring a clear reason to bid farewell.
To say goodbye
Struggling with letting go of the relationship.
Oh, life
Reflection on life's challenging and unfair nature.
What a dirty game you play
Life's complexities and manipulative aspects.
Should have let me go when you still had the chance
Regret for not parting ways earlier.
Should have listened to your own advice
Recognizing the importance of heeding one's own advice.
All the pain
Experiencing emotional distress and suffering.
Is it worth it
Questioning if the pain is justified.
But you see
Understanding that some things are beyond control.
It's out of our control
Feeling a deep connection despite difficulties.
I'm yours, and you're
Being committed despite unfavorable circumstances.
Unfortunately
Acknowledging the unfortunate nature of the relationship.
Mine
Expressing possession of each other despite challenges.
And we'll dive into the deep end without our jackets on
Metaphorical readiness to face challenges together.
My, oh, my
Expressing astonishment or surprise.
I know the odds are stacked against us, silver baby
Acknowledging difficult odds against the relationship.
I ain't giving up without a fight
Determined to continue the struggle for the relationship.
Oh, you're the sun, you're a storm
Describing the person as both comforting and tumultuous.
You're so alive, refused to die
Portraying vitality and resilience despite challenges.
You were too young
Noting the person's premature nature.
But as you shine, how you burn
Admiring the person's intensity and passion.
How you toss and turn
Observing the person's internal struggles.
In the night
Seeing the person's turmoil during the night.
As you bear the full weight
Sharing the person's burdens and hardships.
They said I'll let you down, lying in the aftermath
Expectations of disappointment after a difficult situation.
They don't know if I can be the one
Uncertainty about being the needed support.
That you need
Questioning one's ability to fulfill the person's needs.
I ain't no safe haven
Admitting inability to provide complete safety.
But you say
Reiterating the lack of control over circumstances.
It's out of our control
Reaffirming the mutual commitment despite challenges.
I'm yours, and you're
Reiterating the unfortunate possession of each other.
Unfortunately
Restating the difficulty of the situation.
Mine
Emphasizing determination to persist in the relationship.
And we'll dive into the deep end without our jackets on
Metaphorically prepared to face challenges together.
My, oh, my
Expression of surprise or disbelief.
I know the odds are stacked against us, silver baby
Acknowledging the challenging odds against the relationship.
I ain't giving up without a fight
Determined to continue fighting for the relationship.
Silver, silver baby
Repetition of the affectionate term "silver."
Got a feeling now, we might just make it after all
Hopeful about the possibility of success.
Still ain't right
Reiterating the incorrectness of the situation.
How you gotta die first
Expressing frustration or dissatisfaction with the outcome.
