Time Goes By
Unraveling Emotions: Air Traffic's Time Goes By
Lyrics
As time goes by, you break the spell
Time passing causes the end of a magical or enchanting experience
You tell everyone
You share this change with others
But I can't describe this feeling inside
Difficulty expressing the emotions within
It's bringing me down
The emotional experience is becoming burdensome or depressing
We talk all night and into the day
Extended conversation, transcending into the next day
'Till there's no more to say
Talking until there's nothing left to say
And when we're all done
After the conversation, the conclusion is reached
You say it's been fun but it's better this way
Despite the fun, it's acknowledged that ending is better
It's you that I need, it's you that I need
Expressing a need for a specific person
It's you and I'm sure it's always been
Reiterating the certainty of needing that person
It's you that I need, it's you that I need
Repeating the importance of a specific person
It's you and I'm sure it's always been
Emphasizing the enduring nature of this need
Time's run out, I'm losing control
Time is running out, and control is slipping away
I wish there was more
Expressing a desire for more time
But those wheels won't wait
Time is relentless, and opportunities are passing
Like tears on my face, they're rolling away
A metaphorical reference to the inevitability of losing something important
It's you that I need, it's you that I need
Reiterating the need for a specific person
It's you and I'm sure it's always been
Stating the certainty of this need
It's you that I need, it's you that I need
Repeating the importance of a specific person
It's you, I'm sure it's always been
Emphasizing the enduring nature of this need
All the love that we had
All the love shared is being abandoned or neglected
You let it all down
Acknowledging the abandonment of love
All the love that we had
Reiterating the abandonment of love
You let it all down
Emphasizing the abandonment of love
It's you that I need, it's you that I need
Reiterating the need for a specific person
It's you, I'm sure it's always been
Emphasizing the certainty of this need
It's you that I need, it's you that I need
Repeating the importance of a specific person
It's you but I'm sure it's always been
Emphasizing the enduring nature of this need
