Clouds
Fleeting Moments in the Clouds: A Love's Last Goodbye
Lyrics
Well, the turn signal's clicking
Setting the scene with the sound of a turn signal, indicating a journey or transition.
And the seconds are slipping away
Emphasizing the passage of time and the fleeting nature of moments.
Just a little bit more of this turnpike
On a highway, suggesting movement and the need to express feelings before it's too late.
And so much to say
Feeling the urgency to communicate given the limited time.
The airport traffic, it slows us to a still
Describing a moment of pause in airport traffic, creating a still atmosphere.
I turn the radio down
Reducing external distractions by lowering the radio volume, focusing on the impending conversation.
And leave one hand on the wheel
Remaining in control and ready for the forthcoming discussion.
Well I don't know what to tell you
Expressing uncertainty about what to say, seeking guidance on the preferred message.
What do you wanna hear
Asking for the listener's preference in terms of information or assurance.
You see, guys like me, we just disappear
Acknowledging a tendency for certain individuals (like the speaker) to disappear or withdraw.
You deserve someone who will never leave
Acknowledging the listener's worth and the desire for a committed partner.
But, girl, the last few days are the best we'll ever be
Recognizing the current moments as the peak of their relationship.
Isn't every goodbye a chance to become
Contemplating that every farewell provides an opportunity to create lasting memories.
A bittersweet memory for someone
Highlighting the potential for goodbyes to be remembered as both bitter and sweet.
Don't you ever look back with regret
Advising against looking back with remorse after parting ways.
Share with me a moment for all time
Requesting the sharing of a memorable moment that will endure over time.
In a corner of your mind
Suggesting the creation of a lasting memory within the listener's thoughts.
If you've never seen New England in the fall
Invoking the imagery of New England in the fall as a metaphor for beauty and change.
Should you find yourself up there, give me a call
Extending an invitation to reconnect if the listener finds themselves in a certain place.
But before I make my way into the crowd
Preparing for a departure into a crowd, signifying a transition or separation.
Could I share one last kiss while we're still in the clouds
Seeking a final kiss while still in a euphoric or elevated state (clouds).
Isn't every goodbye a chance to become
Reiterating the idea that goodbyes can create enduring memories, both bitter and sweet.
A bittersweet memory for someone
Emphasizing the potential for goodbyes to have a significant impact on someone's memories.
Don't you ever look back with regret
Warning against dwelling on goodbyes with regret.
Share with me a moment for all time
Requesting the sharing of a moment that will be remembered throughout time.
In a corner of your mind
Suggesting the creation of a lasting memory within the listener's thoughts.
Isn't every goodbye a chance to become
Reiterating the idea that goodbyes can create enduring memories, both bitter and sweet.
A bittersweet memory for someone
Emphasizing the potential for goodbyes to have a significant impact on someone's memories.
Don't you ever look back with regret
Warning against dwelling on goodbyes with regret.
Share with me a moment for all time
Requesting the sharing of a moment that will be remembered throughout time.
In a corner of your mind
Suggesting the creation of a lasting memory within the listener's thoughts.
