Life's Lemons
Embracing Life's Bitter Truths
Lyrics
It just don't make sense
Expressing confusion or disbelief about a situation.
But then again, how was I to know?
Reflecting on the lack of prior knowledge or awareness.
Love and devotion as deep as the ocean
Describing profound love and dedication comparable to the vastness of the ocean.
Still can't change the way the wind blows
Acknowledging the inability to alter the course of events.
But every storm, it, it comes to pass
Highlighting the transient nature of storms and challenges.
Thunder and lightning was never meant to last
Suggesting that difficulties like thunder and lightning are temporary.
And I knew you wouldn't be here in the morning one day
Anticipating the eventual absence of a loved one in the morning.
But my foolish heart thought you might stay, yeah
Expressing naive hope that the loved one might stay despite expectations.
Life's lemons often so bitter, that's a given
Describing life's challenges as inherently difficult (lemons) and accepted.
All I can do is keep on living
Resolving to continue living despite life's bitter challenges.
And even the happiest man, he still weeps at night
Acknowledging that even the happiest person experiences sadness.
Baby, that's alright
Accepting and comforting oneself with the idea that sadness is permissible.
But every storm, it comes to pass
Reiterating the temporary nature of storms and challenges.
Thunder and lightning was never meant to last
Emphasizing that difficulties like thunder and lightning are not everlasting.
And I knew you wouldn't be here in the morning one day
Repeating the expectation of a loved one's eventual departure in the morning.
My foolish heart thought you might stay, yeah
Reaffirming the misguided hope that the loved one might stay.
And I wish I could change but I can't
Expressing a desire for change but acknowledging an inability to do so, possibly indicating a sense of resignation or helplessness.
And I wish I could change but I can't
-And I wish I could change but I can't
-And I wish I could change but I can't
