What I Feel Inside
Chasing Shadows of Heartache: Clint Black's Melancholic Reflection
Lyrics
I'm just out of the light,
I am currently not in the spotlight or attention.
I hadn't caught her eye,
I have not attracted her attention yet.
But I think I might be lovin' her.
Despite not being noticed, I think I might be falling in love with her.
I just stepped outta the door,
I have just left a certain situation or relationship.
Gotta be a fool to want to go one more,
It would be foolish to want to experience that again.
For the way were were.
Reflecting on the way things were in the past.
For the good times, how many times?
Asking about the frequency of good times.
I'm losin' track.
I am losing count of the good times.
Everybody goes, everybody knows,
Everyone departs, and everyone is aware that it's over, so there is no need to reminisce.
It's gone, don't look back.
Move forward and do not dwell on the past.
There's no love in the space I claimed,
There is no love in the emotional space I once occupied.
I could burn my bridges to a pourin' rain.
I could sever connections even in challenging situations.
No matter how far or hard I ride,
No matter how much I distance myself or try, I can't escape my inner feelings.
I can't outrun what I feel inside.
Tell me, who do you see?
Asking who the observer sees when looking at me.
See me running 'round, and you think I'm crazy,
The observer might perceive me as erratic due to the emotional pain.
From the way we hurt.
Referring to emotional pain caused by the past.
I don't mean bodily harm.
No physical harm intended, but emotional damage can be significant.
When it comes to the heart, it's a free alarm,
When it comes to matters of the heart, one needs to be vigilant.
You got be alert.
Alertness is required in emotional matters.
For the good times, how many lines?
Asking about the frequency of good times again.
I'm losin' slack.
Difficulty in keeping track of the positive experiences.
It's the way to go, everybody knows,
Emphasizing the importance of moving forward and not dwelling on the past.
If you don't look back.
Don't look back; it's the best way to proceed.
There's no love in the space I claimed,
Reiterating the absence of love in the emotional space.
I could burn my bridges to a pourin' rain.
Expressing the willingness to sever ties even in difficult circumstances.
No matter how far or hard I ride,
The inability to escape or overcome inner feelings no matter the effort.
I can't outrun what I feel inside.
I never found what I think I know,
Expressing a sense of not finding what one thought they knew.
I'm getting no-where everywhere I go.
Feeling stagnant or unprogressive in various aspects of life.
There's no love in the space I claimed,
Reiteration of the absence of love in the emotional space.
I could burn my bridges to a pourin' rain.
Emphasizing the capability to sever connections even in challenging circumstances.
No matter how far or hard I ride,
Despite efforts to distance oneself, inner feelings cannot be escaped.
I can't outrun what I feel inside.
