Gone So Long
Reawakening Hearts: Breathe Carolina's Unforgettable Journey
Lyrics
My eyes open to the sound of a song I've heard
Awakening to a familiar song, though the name is unknown
Don't know the name, but I know all the words
Familiarity with the lyrics despite not knowing the song's name
Sun came up, crawled into the front seat
Transitioning into a new day, memories fading away
Memories leaving me, was it all a dream I had?
Questioning the reality of past experiences, wondering if they were dreams
Time for us to wake up
A call to wake up and face reality
I'll save my words to make the most of it
Choosing words carefully to make the most of the situation
I never meant to be gone so long
Expressing regret for being absent for an extended period
Do you still remember my touch at all?
Questioning if the touch is still remembered
I never meant to be gone so long
Reiterating the unintentional, prolonged absence
Street lights passing everyone
Observing street lights while getting closer to something significant
Gets me a heartbeat closer
Each street light brings the speaker closer to a meaningful moment
To where it started beating
Reflecting on the origin of emotions and experiences
Keep me feeling safe and sound
Seeking comfort and security
When everything that's right is upside down
Feeling disoriented when everything seems wrong
Was it all a dream I had?
Revisiting the uncertainty of past experiences
Time for us to wake up
A reminder to wake up and face reality
I'll save my words to make the most of it
Choosing words wisely to maximize their impact
I never meant to be gone so long
Reiterating regret for the unintended long absence
(So long) as I have you I'll be home
Expressing that having someone means being at home
I never meant to be gone so long
Repeating the regret for the prolonged absence
I'm sorry I made you wait
Apologizing for making someone wait
I wish that I could stay
Expressing a desire to stay despite commitments
I live for this, but I'd die for you
Balancing dedication to a passion with a willingness to sacrifice
The world still moves on.
Acknowledging that life continues despite personal struggles
Do you still remember my touch at all?
Questioning if the tactile memory is still retained
I never meant to be gone so long
Reiterating regret for the unintended long absence
Do you still remember my touch at all?
Repeating the question about the remembrance of touch
I never meant to be gone so long
Reiterating regret for the unintended long absence
As I have you walk me home
Expressing the feeling of being at home when accompanied
I never meant to be gone so long
Reiterating regret for the unintended long absence
Do you still remember my touch at all?
Asking if the memory of touch persists
I never meant to be gone so long
Reiterating regret for the unintended long absence
