Together Alone
Embracing Solitude: Unveiling the Intimacy Within 'Together Alone'
Lyrics
So many things to see in this old world
Expressing the vastness of the world with numerous experiences.
But all I can see is you
The singer's focus is solely on the person they love.
In a crowded subway train
Whether in a busy subway or a peaceful rain, the loved one is always present.
Or walking in the country rain
Describing diverse settings where the loved one accompanies the singer.
You're there with me too
Emphasizing the constant presence of the loved one.
Of all the songs sung in any day
The prominence of the loved one's voice in the singer's perception of the world.
Your voice is all I hear
The loved one's voice dominates, overshadowing other sounds.
For though each song has its own place
Acknowledging that each song has its place and fades, but the loved one's voice persists.
And, finished, quickly fades away
Highlighting the enduring presence of the loved one's voice.
I hear you everywhere
The loved one's voice is omnipresent, heard everywhere.
And though I know you won't be pleased
Acknowledging potential displeasure from the loved one despite actions.
By all that I do
Assuring that despite potential displeasure, there's hope for understanding.
Surely, we can find a way
Expressing a desire to find common ground despite differences.
To overlook what you don't like
Suggesting a willingness to overlook aspects disliked by the loved one.
And though I know you won't be pleased
Reiterating the expectation of potential displeasure from the loved one.
By all that I do
Reaffirming the hope for understanding and finding common ground.
Surely, we can find a way
Reiterating the willingness to overcome differences with the loved one.
To overlook what you don't like
Emphasizing the hope for mutual understanding despite disagreements.
It's been said many times that we're all by ourselves
Reflecting on the common notion that individuals are ultimately alone.
And each man is on his own
Accepting the idea that each person is responsible for their own journey.
I don't care, that may be true
Expressing a disregard for the idea of being alone, as the focus is on being with the loved one.
I just want to be with you
Reiterating the primary desire to be with the loved one.
Together, alone
Summing up the paradox of being together but still feeling a sense of aloneness.
