Say the Words
Whispers of Farewell: Embracing Love's Echo
Lyrics
If ya gotta go,
Expressing readiness for a departure
Then I'll make out all right
Assurance of coping or managing despite the departure
If you wanna know
Seeking clarification or confirmation
I knew it wasn't right
Recognizing an intuition that something was wrong or not appropriate
All the time.
Acknowledging the continuous existence of an issue
We'll make out somehow
Belief in finding a resolution similar to the past
Just like we did before
Referencing a previous positive experience
Just don't turn around,
Requesting not to witness the departure
When you walk out the door
Asking for avoidance during the departure
And just one time.
Emphasizing a singular occasion
Say the words say the words I love
Desiring to hear a specific declaration of love
Fill the time 'till the time
Using affectionate words to occupy time until departure
You can't stay
Recognizing the imminent departure despite affectionate words
Say the words say the words I love
Reiterating the desire for a specific declaration of love
Fill the time 'till the time
Repeating affectionate words until the departure
You can't stay.
Acknowledging the inevitability of departure despite affection
Nothin' left to do.
Acceptance of the completion of actions
It's done, there is no more
Acknowledgment that there's nothing further to be done
Nothin' left to say
Recognition of exhausting all possible communication
We've said it all before
Recalling previous exhaustive conversations
Yes, I know
Acknowledging awareness
Wouldn't trade away
Declaring an unwillingness to exchange past experiences
A day of what we had
Valuing past moments
I know you shouldn't stay
Acknowledging the necessity of departure despite past enjoyment
But, babe it wasn't bad
Recognizing the positive aspects before the departure
Before you go
Before the actual departure
Say the words say the words I love
Requesting a specific declaration of love again
Fill the time 'till the time
Using affectionate words to fill the time before departure
You can't stay.
Acknowledging the inevitable departure despite affectionate words
Say the words say the words I love
Reiterating the desire for a specific declaration of love
Fill the time 'till the time
Repeating affectionate words until the departure
You can't stay.
Acknowledging the inevitability of departure despite affection
