Back To Dawson
Journey of Reflection: Back to Dawson's Lost Memories
Lyrics
This old road is bound to lead me
This old road symbolizes a journey or path in life.
To a dark and tangled corner of me mind
Refers to a dark and complex part of the singer's thoughts or emotions.
Wonderin' if she'll ever need me
Expresses uncertainty about whether someone (possibly a past lover) will ever require the singer again.
The way she did that dark December night
Recalls a specific night in December when the person mentioned in line 3 needed the singer.
Is it too much to ask
Questions whether it's too demanding to seek understanding or closure.
Should I just let it pass
Contemplates whether the singer should simply let go of the past.
And pray the Lord will give me another try
Asks for divine intervention and another chance.
Or take it all back to Dawson and leave it all behind
Ponders whether to return to Dawson and abandon the current situation.
All these years and still I don't see
Reflects on the passage of time and the inability to understand why a wonderful person left.
How a lovely soul could leave me feelin' low
Expresses the emotional impact of being left by someone special.
Maybe I'm sowin' my own seeds
Suggests the singer might be causing their own emotional distress.
Of troubled thoughts and heartache on my own
Implies the singer is experiencing inner turmoil and heartbreak.
Is it too much to ask
Reiterates the question of whether seeking understanding is too much.
Should I just let it pass
Raises the option of letting go and allowing things to pass.
And pray the Lord will give me another try
Calls for divine intervention and another opportunity to make things right.
Or take it all back to Dawson and leave it all behind
Revisits the idea of returning to Dawson and leaving everything behind.
Maybe I should just be happy
Suggests contemplating happiness with the memories of the past.
I ever got to know her sweet face
Expresses gratitude for having known the person and their positive qualities.
And thank God that she would take me
Grateful acknowledgment of being accepted by the person in the past.
And replay the good times my mind can't erase
Desire to relive and cherish the positive moments that linger in the mind.
Is it too far to fetch
Questions the distance or difficulty in achieving happiness without complications.
Bein' happy without a catch
Contemplates the possibility of finding happiness without drawbacks.
Lord won't you help me ease my mind
Seeks divine assistance in finding peace of mind.
Or take it all back to Dawson and leave it all behind
Reiterates the choice between moving forward positively or returning to Dawson.
Or take it all back to Dawson and leave it all behind
Repeats the consideration of going back to Dawson and leaving the current situation behind.
