Die of a Broken Heart
Yearning for an Endless Love: Carolyn Dawn Johnson's Poignant Reflections
Lyrics
I keep having these disturbing dreams
I am consistently experiencing unsettling dreams.
My final days, the end of me
These dreams depict my final moments or the end of my life.
For some odd reason, I get one last wish
Strangely, I have a final wish in these dreams.
And every time, I wish for this
My recurring wish is revealed to be related to the upcoming end.
Take me fast or take me slow
I'm indifferent about the speed of my departure, whether fast or slow.
I don't really care how I go
The manner of my exit does not matter to me.
In the daylight or in the dark
It could happen in the daylight or in the darkness.
Just don't let me die of a broken heart
However, the crucial plea is to avoid a death caused by heartbreak.
The kind of pain that you just can't take
Describing a type of pain that is unbearable.
Will send a strong man to his grave
This intense pain can lead even a strong individual to their demise.
There's not a pill that can give you a rest
No medication can provide relief or fill the emotional void.
Or fill that hole deep in your chest
Expressing the depth of emotional emptiness felt in the chest.
So, take me fast or take me slow
Reiterating the lack of preference for the speed of departure.
I don't really care how I go
The method of exit remains inconsequential.
In the daylight or in the dark
It can happen during the day or in the night.
Just don't let me die of a broken heart
The primary request is to avoid a death caused by heartbreak.
No
Emphasizing the plea to avoid heartbreak-induced death.
(Yeah, yeah)
(Additional emphasis on the plea)
(Yeah, yeah)
(Further emphasis on the plea)
I've been crushed by that hurt before
Reflecting on past experiences of being emotionally devastated.
There's no way I could take any more
Expressing an inability to endure more emotional pain.
If I fell in love, and I found out it would happen again
If I were to fall in love again and face heartbreak, I'd prefer a swift end.
I'd say take me now
The preference for a quick departure if confronted with the prospect of heartbreak.
And take me fast or take me slow
Reiterating the indifference towards the speed of departure.
I don't really care how I go
The method of exit is not a concern.
In the daylight or in the dark
Whether it happens during the day or night is immaterial.
Just don't let me die of a broken heart
The primary plea remains to avoid a death caused by heartbreak.
Take me fast or take me slow
Reiterating the lack of preference for the speed of departure.
I don't really care how I go
The manner of exit is inconsequential.
In the daylight or in the dark
It can happen during the day or in the night.
Just don't let me die of a broken heart
The central request is to avoid a death caused by heartbreak.
No, don't let me die of a broken heart
Reiteration of the plea to avoid death from heartbreak.
No
(Final emphasis on the plea)
