One More Night Alone
Yearning Echoes: One More Night Alone by Carl Wilson
Lyrics
Somebody said all things will pass
Someone mentioned that all things in life will eventually pass.
All things will pass away
Emphasizing that all things will eventually come to an end.
It seems kinda slow, and somehow I know
Time seems to be moving slowly, and the singer has a sense that...
I'm gonna spend one more night alone
The singer anticipates spending another night alone.
And somebody said, don't let her go to your head
Advice not to let the person (her) affect the singer emotionally.
Don't let those feelings show
Warning against revealing deep emotions.
But deep down inside it can't be denied
Despite efforts to hide feelings, an inner acknowledgment exists.
I'm gonna spend one more night alone
Expressing the inevitability of spending another night alone.
You found somebody new
Acknowledgment that the person has found someone new.
And I can't believe it's true
The singer struggles to believe this new reality.
Now ain't you lonely too
The singer suggests that the person might also feel lonely now.
(lord) but I miss being with you
Expressing a sense of longing despite the separation.
And somebody said, enough has been said
Suggesting that enough has been discussed or addressed.
You can't get blood from a stone
Metaphorically stating that extracting more from an unyielding situation is impossible.
So, I try to hide all those feelings inside
The singer attempts to conceal emotions, not wanting to be alone again.
Don't want to spend one more night alone
Expressing a desire to avoid spending another night alone.
One more night don't want to spend
Reiterating the unwillingness to endure another night alone.
One more night don't want to spend
Repeating the sentiment of not wanting to spend another night alone.
One more night alone
Emphasizing the aversion to spending one more night alone.
But tonight I'll stay alone
Acknowledging that, despite the desire, the singer will be alone tonight.
