Lyrics
I can still feel you there
I can still feel your presence or influence lingering
Are we tangled in time somewhere
Are we stuck or intertwined in a moment from the past?
And it's been a while since you've been 'round here
It's been a significant duration since your last visit
Since you locked me in some devastated stare
Since you trapped me in a sorrowful, intense gaze
Oh then we could ring out like mission bells
Suggesting a desire to resonate loudly and meaningfully like mission bells
Across the yard we knew so well
Reflecting on shared memories or experiences in a familiar place
Come on come on give me my turn
An appeal for an opportunity or chance
To sing once more
To have the chance to sing again, possibly expressing emotions
And let it burn
To express feelings passionately and intensely
'Cause I'm
Expressing a sense of personal inadequacy or unworthiness
I'm just no good
An acknowledgment of feeling inadequate or insufficient
So leave me, as you should
Implying a necessity for departure, aligning with expectations
And surrender to some unholy war
Surrendering to a conflict or struggle that feels morally or emotionally challenging
'Cause we forgot what we first came here for
Forgetting the initial purpose or reason for a relationship or situation
Oh then we could ring out like mission bells
Reiterating the desire to resonate loudly and meaningfully like mission bells
Across the yard we knew so well
Recalling shared experiences or memories in a familiar place
Come on come on give me my turn
An appeal for a chance or opportunity
To sing once more
To express oneself through singing again
And let it burn
To express intense emotions or feelings
Come on come on come on now you sing it
An invitation or encouragement for the other person to join in singing
Laying me low in bells that come ringing and
Feeling emotionally affected by the ringing of the bells
We could ring out like mission bells
A repetition emphasizing the desire to resonate loudly and meaningfully like mission bells
Across the yard we knew so well
Recalling shared experiences or memories in a familiar place (repeated)
Come on come on give me my turn
An appeal for a chance or opportunity (repeated)
To sing once more
To have the chance to express oneself through singing again (repeated)
And let it burn
To express intense emotions or feelings (repeated)
