Passing Through
Passing Through: Longing and Unrequited Love in Ark & Ocean's Melody
Lyrics
I was just passing through
I was briefly present or involved
I was just passing through
Reiteration of passing through
On my way to you
En route to you
I didn’t know the truth
Unaware of the reality
But now I know you do
Now I understand, and so do you
I don’t wanna go so far away
Reluctance to go far away
And you don’t notice
Unawareness or indifference from you
I don’t wanna hear our friends say
Concern about others' opinions
That you don’t care
Concern that you may not care
If I was to go so far away
Reiteration of reluctance to go far away
I’d wanna know if you’d be missing me
Desire to know if you'd miss me
Oh, oh, oh
Expression of emotion or realization
I was just passing through
Reiteration of passing through
It’s been a day or two
Some time has passed since I was last passing through
Since I was passing through
Reiteration of being en route to you
On my way to you
Expression of feeling foolish
And I feel like a fool
Unable to move on from you
I can’t get over you
Struggling to overcome emotions
I don’t wanna go so far away
Reiteration of reluctance to go far away
And you don’t notice
Reiteration of unawareness or indifference from you
I don’t wanna hear our friends say
Reiteration of concern about others' opinions
That you don’t care
Reiteration of concern that you may not care
If I was to go so far away
Reiteration of reluctance to go far away
I’d wanna know if you’d be missing me
Reiteration of desire to know if you'd miss me
Oh, oh, oh
Expression of emotion or realization
I was just passing through
Reiteration of passing through
Your eyes come and haunt me
Your gaze lingers in my thoughts
In the night
Nocturnal presence of your eyes
Night
Reiteration of night
Your eyes shining brightly
Your eyes shine brightly in my existence
In my life
Reiteration of life
Life
Presence of your eyes in my life
I don’t wanna go so far away
Reiteration of reluctance to go far away
And you don’t notice
Reiteration of unawareness or indifference from you
I don’t wanna hear our friends say
Reiteration of concern about others' opinions
That you don’t care
Reiteration of concern that you may not care
I don’t wanna go so far away
Reiteration of reluctance to go far away
And you don’t notice
Reiteration of unawareness or indifference from you
I don’t wanna hear our friends say
Reiteration of concern about others' opinions
That you don’t care
Reiteration of concern that you may not care
If I was to go so far away
Reiteration of desire to know if you'd miss me
I’d wanna know if you’d be missing me
Expression of emotion or realization
Oh, oh, oh
Reiteration of passing through
Oh, oh, oh
Expression of emotion or realization
I was just passing through
Reiteration of passing through
