Nathan Jones
Longing Echoes: Nathan Jones' Absence Echoes Through Seasons
Lyrics
You packed your bags as I recall
You left, recalling the moment when you packed your belongings.
And you walked slowly down the hall
You departed slowly, walking down the hallway.
You said you had to get away to ease your mind
You expressed a need to escape to ease your mind.
And all you needed was a little of time
All you required was some time.
Oh winter's passed spring and fall
Time has passed through different seasons.
You never rung me, you never called
You never contacted me or made an effort to reach out.
Nathan Jones you've been gone too long
Direct address to Nathan Jones, indicating his prolonged absence.
Gone too long
Reiteration of Nathan Jones' extended absence.
If a woman could die of tears
Expresses an emotional intensity, suggesting extreme distress from tears.
Nathan Jones, well, I wouldn't be here
If tears could cause death, the absence of Nathan Jones would be the reason.
The key that you're holding won't fit my door
The key Nathan holds doesn't fit the door, symbolizing inability to return.
And there's no room in my heart for you no more
There's no longer space in the speaker's heart for Nathan.
Oh winter's passed spring and fall
Reiteration of the passing of time without contact.
You never rung me, you never called
Emphasizes the lack of communication or effort from Nathan.
Nathan Jones you've been gone too long
Repeated assertion of Nathan Jones' prolonged absence.
Gone too long
Reiteration that Nathan has been away for too long.
Nathan Jones

Oh winter's passed spring and fall
Repeats the passing of time without contact.
You never rung me, you never called
Reiterates the absence of communication or effort from Nathan.
Nathan Jones you've been gone too long
Reiteration of Nathan Jones' prolonged absence.
Gone too long
Emphasizes Nathan's extended absence.
Oh winter's passed spring and fall
Repeated assertion of Nathan Jones' prolonged absence.
You never rung me, you never called
Emphasizes the lack of communication or effort from Nathan.
Nathan Jones you've been gone too long
Reiteration that Nathan has been away for too long.
Gone too long
Final repetition emphasizing Nathan's extended absence.
