Since You've Gone
Echoes of Longing: Navigating Heartache in 'Since You've Gone'
Lyrics
Since you've gone
Expressing the impact of the person's departure.
Nothing really matters
Highlighting the emotional numbness and insignificance of other things.
All I do is hang out with my pillow
Conveying a sense of loneliness and reliance on a pillow for comfort.
I wait in anticipation
Waiting eagerly, possibly for reconciliation or contact.
For your call that never comes
Expressing disappointment and yearning for a call that never happens.
Since you've gone
Reiterating the emotional void since the person's departure.
Don't care about tomorrow
Indicating a lack of concern or interest in the future without the person.
Since you've gone my heart's barely beating
Describing the profound impact on the speaker's heart after the departure.
I wait in anticipation
Continuing the theme of anticipation, emphasizing the yearning for a touch.
For your touch, it never comes
Expressing the disappointment of never experiencing the desired touch.
Another wild Friday night
Describing a lonely Friday night and waiting for the person.
And I'm waiting here for you
Expressing commitment to the waiting despite conflicting emotions.
My head says stay home and die
Internal conflict between a rational decision to stay home and an emotional urge to take risks.
But my heart says break on through
Conveying the internal struggle between reason and emotion.
There were times
Recalling shared moments and experiences of running together.
When you really loved me
Highlighting the special times when love was strong.
All the times we would run together
Reminiscing about running to the heart of the city together.
To the heart, the heart of the city
Symbolizing a place of emotional significance.
Dreams that filled the night
Referring to dreams that were once shared during the night.
Since you've gone

Don't care about tomorrow
Reemphasizing the lack of concern for the future without the person.
Since you've gone my heart's barely beating

I ought to get into my car
Suggesting a desire to escape and find a solution, possibly through driving.
Hit that pedal hard
Expressing determination to drive and seek resolution.
I'll drive until I find a way
