Eyes on You
Captivated Shadows: A Tale of Love in the Dark
Lyrics
It was dark
Setting the scene, describing the environment as dark.
Streetlights threw shadows through the park
Streetlights casting shadows in the park, creating a visual atmosphere.
I was late
Expressing lateness, possibly creating tension or anticipation.
First impression I've failed to shake
Acknowledging a failed first impression that lingers.
You were stood
Introducing the other person, using past tense, suggesting a reflection on the encounter.
A little bit shorter than I expected
Noting a discrepancy in height expectation, highlighting initial surprise or curiosity.
I was sure
Expressing confidence in maintaining composure despite expectations.
I'd lose my cool but somehow I kept it
Reflecting on personal emotions and self-control in the situation.
That was the first time I laid my
Building anticipation for a significant moment, using the first person possessive pronoun "my."
Eyes on you
Revealing the moment of laying eyes on the other person for the first time.
You were mad
Describing the other person as upset or angry.
I gave you every excuse that I had
Offering excuses in an attempt to address or alleviate the other person's displeasure.
And as we wondered
Continuing the narrative, expressing desire or yearning for a longer interaction.
Oh, how I lusted for longer
Describing a sense of longing, possibly in a romantic context.
Through alleyways, romantic games
Depicting a journey through alleyways, hinting at romantic games and exploration.
The next few days
Referring to the following days, suggesting a progression in the relationship.
We fell into each other
Describing a mutual falling into each other, symbolizing the deepening of the connection.
You were my one true real life lover
Declaring the other person as a significant and genuine lover in real life.
That was the first time I laid my
Reiterating the importance of the initial moment of laying eyes on the other person.
Eyes on you
Concluding the lyrics by emphasizing the enduring significance of that first gaze.
