Now That You're Gone
Love's Departure: Desmond Doom's Melancholic Tale
Lyrics
Remember when I first met you,
Recollection of the initial meeting with the person being addressed.
Thought it'd just be for the night.
Expectation that the encounter would only last for a short time.
Just a quick flash in the darkness.
Anticipation of a brief, fleeting moment amidst obscurity.
Instead you brought the daylight.
Contrary to expectations, the person brought brightness and positivity.
Safe from the storm, I held you, love.
Feeling of safety and protection provided to the person being addressed during a difficult time.
Safe in my arms.
Expresses the physical and emotional closeness felt in a relationship.
I'm worse for wear my darling heart,
Emotional state of feeling worse off after the departure of the person.
Now that you're gone.
Reflection on the emotional impact of the person's absence.
I remember on the last night,
Recollection of a significant memory, probably the final moments together.
I kissed you in the street.
Describing a moment of intimacy, possibly the goodbye gesture.
You took a taxi to the harbour
Reference to the person's departure via a taxi to the harbor.
cnd sailed away from me.
Symbolic departure or leaving behind, sailing away from the speaker.
Safe from the storm, I held you, love.
Reiteration of providing a sense of safety and protection in the relationship.
Safe in my arms.
Reaffirmation of the emotional closeness shared in the relationship.
I'm worse for wear my darling heart,
Emotional condition after the departure, indicating a wounded heart.
Now that you're gone.
Continued reflection on the emotional aftermath of the person's absence.
Now that you're gone.
Final acknowledgment of the person's absence and its impact.
