A life we'll never know
Journey Through Unseen Paths
Lyrics
Afraid of the passing time
Concerned about the passage of time and its implications
Afraid of the bell that chimes
Fearful of the sound of a bell indicating time's passage or events
Of the deeper lines in my face
Worried about the visible signs of aging or experience
Of the choices we made
Regretful or apprehensive about the decisions made
Of every road we'll never know
Anxiety about the myriad possibilities or paths left unexplored
So we left with the wind
Departing, likely from a situation or place
In our backs
Heading away, carrying some form of enjoyment or escape
A bottle of red wine and dreams
Carrying a bottle of red wine and aspirations for the future
As the train left the tracks
Leaving behind old routines or structures
Swore we'd never look back
Determined not to dwell on past experiences
On every road we'll never know
Resolute about not exploring various life paths
You said it's dying to be living in the past
Noted that living in past moments can feel like a slow demise
So travel light babe if you want to get there fast
Encouraging to travel lightly to reach destinations quickly
I froze with fear at every crossroad but I learned at last
Initially paralyzed by fear at decision points but eventually learned
Down every road there's a life we'll never know
Acknowledging that every path not taken holds its own unknown life
We traveled too far
Having journeyed extensively
To the east
Traveled to the far eastern direction
Reached the end of the line
Reached the conclusion or endpoint
Saw the sun where the land meets the sea
Experienced a beautiful sight at the meeting point of land and sea
You were betting on me
Had faith or belief in someone or something
And every road we'll never know
Stressing again the unexplored paths in life
You said it's dying to be living in the past
Reiterating the negative aspects of dwelling in the past
But you might not find if you're traveling too fast
Warning against missing opportunities by rushing too much
I froze with fear at every crossroad but I learned at last
Despite initial fear, learning from experiences at decision points
Down every road there's a life we'll never know
Reaffirmation of the existence of unknown lives in unchosen paths
La la la
Melodic refrain
We froze with fear at every crossroad but we learned at last
Reaffirming the process of learning from feared decisions
Down every road there's a life we'll never know
Reiteration of the existence of unknown lives in unexplored paths
