IF I PASS THROUGH IT
Journey Through Life's Trials: Alan Corbel's Poignant Reflections
Lyrics
Wish me luck for I'm on my way to my blood test
Expressing a desire for good fortune as the singer heads for a blood test.
And if I pass through it you won't be the one to feel upset
If the singer successfully passes the blood test, the listener won't be the one feeling upset.
Wish me luck for I'm on my way to death raw
Wishing luck as the singer faces a potentially serious or challenging situation (death raw).
And if I pass through it you won't be the one I ‘ll ever let go
If the singer successfully confronts this difficult situation, the listener will not be abandoned.
And I know, I know, I know you used to say
Reflecting on past statements where the listener encouraged the singer to remain childlike.
Please, love, stay that child,
A plea to maintain a childlike innocence in love.
It was so sweet just you and I
Recalling sweet moments shared between the singer and the listener.
But I know, I know that nowadays
Acknowledging a change in the present, contrasting with the past.
When he wants to cry
Highlighting the need for emotional restraint in contemporary times.
A man has got to hide
Suggesting that a man must hide his emotions when he feels like crying.
Hold my hand tight and firm for I'm on my way
Asking for emotional support while heading towards an uncertain future.
To the other side of the highway, can’t see no footpath on the road
Describing a journey to an unknown destination with no clear path ahead.
As love comes and love goes around
Reflecting on the transient nature of love—coming and going.
If I pass through it you won't be the one I will let down
If the singer succeeds in the journey, the listener won't be disappointed.
And I know, I know, I know you used to say
Recalling past requests for the listener to remain childlike in love.
Please, love, stay that child,
A plea to maintain a childlike innocence in love.
It was so sweet just you and I
Revisiting sweet moments shared between the singer and the listener.
But I know, I know that nowadays
Acknowledging a change in the present, contrasting with the past.
When he wants to cry
Highlighting the need for emotional restraint in contemporary times.
A man has got to hide
Suggesting that a man must hide his emotions when he feels like crying.
When I'm back to the days, I was no one to say or to decide
Reflecting on a time when the singer had little say or control over life.
What should be my life, did you see I was such s sad sad kid
Describing the singer's past as a sad child, seeking understanding and empathy.
Give me back my time, give my back my smile
Requesting a return of lost time, happiness, and intangible things that money can't buy.
And all those things money can't buy, give me back my pride
Asking for the restoration of lost pride.
