One Way Street
Love's Journey on a One Way Street
Lyrics
If the sun should fall from the sky tomorrow
If unexpected challenges or difficulties arise
If the rain brings the tears to your eye, I would share your sorrow
Expressing willingness to share sorrow in difficult times
But you must go if you can't take the heat, our love was fine, our love was sweet
Acceptance of the necessity to part ways due to difficulties, reminiscing about past love
But we was walkin' on the wildside, runnin' down a one way street
Metaphorical reference to a risky, adventurous relationship on a "wildside" and a one-way street
Well I'm not with all those guys, who rode out in your eyes
Declaration of being different from others in the past
Sometimes, ya sometimes, I can't forget your lines
Nostalgic acknowledgment of memorable moments or conversations
But hold the train, just come today, and for your wrong, well you must pay
Request to pause and reconsider actions, emphasizing consequences for mistakes
And we're walkin' on the wildside, runnin' down a one way street
Continuation of the metaphorical journey on the "wildside" and a one-way street
If I'm old my darlin' eye, I must confess
Admission of aging and doubt about the authenticity of love
That this can't be love, no I must be a man possessed
Suggesting a feeling of being controlled by intense emotions
When I look in your eyes so bright, your walkin' and your dress fits you just right
Appreciation of physical appearance and compatibility, despite being on a path with no future
But we were walkin' on a dead end, runnin' down a one way street
Reiteration of being on a dead-end path in the relationship
Well their's a man, could change the things, he feels inside
Hope for personal change to mend the relationship
If for once I, could turn and make it swallow some of my pride
Wishing to overcome pride for reconciliation
But for the wrongs, oh yes we must pay, so its bye bye baby today
Acknowledgment of consequences for mistakes and saying goodbye
And we'll go walkin' on that wildside, runnin' down a one way street
Recommitting to the adventurous and risky path of the "wildside" and a one-way street
Yeah when I think, of all the girls, that I have I missed
Reflecting on missed opportunities with other girls
Well I know I, would give them up, for just one kiss
Expressing willingness to give up other experiences for a single meaningful moment
That's nn..we, we are the same kind, and to leave you baby, I have to go blind
Highlighting a sense of shared identity and the difficulty of parting ways
Oh when we're walkin' on the wildside, runnin' down a one way street
Reiteration of the risky and one-way nature of the relationship
Oh oh yes we are, we'll keep walkin' on that badside, runnin' down that one way street
Commitment to continue on the challenging path
Oh yes we will, we'll keep walkin' on that badside, runnin' down a one way street
Reiteration of the commitment to continue despite challenges
