Cut and Run
Yearning for Love Lost: Cut and Run
Lyrics
Seeing you here it makes me smile
Seeing the person brings joy and happiness
I hear you laugh and all day I am waiting to be next to you
Longing to be close to the person and anticipating their laughter all day
Hoping that you feel the same way
Hoping for mutual feelings from the person
It seems like you're moving away
Perceiving a distance growing between them
If it's the end I need to know before I have to let you go
Desiring clarity about the relationship's future before letting go
I'm just not ready to be alone
Feeling unprepared and unwilling to be alone
Say it say it now
Requesting honesty and open communication
You're not in love with me no more
Realizing the person's feelings have changed
I'll try my best to catch up with you
Willingness to make an effort to keep up with the person despite changed feelings
say it say it now
Repeated request for the truth about changed feelings
You're not in love with me no more
Reiterating the realization of the person's changed feelings
I'll try my ebst to catch uip with you
Commitment to trying to catch up despite the change
Say it say it now
Continued insistence on knowing the truth about changed feelings
Say it say it now
-Say it say it now
-Say it say it now
-Say it say it now, you're not in love with me no more
Rephrasing the realization of the person's changed feelings
I'll try my best to catch up with you
Continued commitment to trying despite the changed feelings
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Repetitive vocalization expressing emotion (non-lexical vocables)
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
-(Do do do)
Instrumental or nonsensical vocal sounds
We're like fish in the sea
Metaphorical comparison to being like fish in the sea, expressing fear of change and longing for the person
And I thought you were the one for me
-Baby I'm afraid of change
-But I think it's more that I still like you
-Just as much as when we met
-I don't' want to sleep alone and think of you with someone else
-Holding them when I still want to reach for you and hold you close in the night, you know I still love you..
-Say it say it now
Repeated requests for the truth about changed feelings
Say it say it now
-Say it say it now
-Say it say it now you're not in love with me no more
-I'll try my best to catch up with you
-Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Instrumental or nonsensical vocal sounds
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Repetitive vocalization expressing emotion (non-lexical vocables)
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Instrumental or nonsensical vocal sounds
(Do do do)
-We're like fish in the sea
-And I thought you were the one for me
Repetition of the fish in the sea metaphor and the belief that the person was meant for them
(Do do do)
-We're like fish in the sea
-And I thought you were the one for me
Reaffirming the metaphorical comparison and belief in the relationship
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Repetitive vocalization expressing emotion (non-lexical vocables)
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
