Lost
Discovering Love's Guiding Light in the Shadows
Lyrics
I didn't call out, never said, "SOS"
Did not seek help or assistance, did not ask for help via an SOS signal.
Don't even know who I was saving my flare for
Uncertain about the purpose of saving something important.
Each lonely winter, turnin' the gas back up
During each isolated winter, increased gas to warm oneself emotionally.
To thaw my heart in the frost
Trying to warm the heart in a cold, emotional environment.
Man on the moon to the day that the star man died
Referencing significant events - from the moon landing to the passing of David Bowie (Starman).
I woulda phoned you if I'da known how
Would have reached out if knowing how to.
From Yokohama right back to Camden Lock
Traveled from Yokohama to Camden Lock, experiencing a sense of displacement.
Never knew I was lost
Unaware of being lost until a realization.
There was a shadow of us, shadow of us
Reflecting on the remnants or traces of a past relationship.
In everything I looked for, everything I touched
Those remnants were evident in everything sought or touched.
I heard an echo of you singing in every room
Hearing echoes of the person in every space, slowly fading into something new.
Fading, changing into something new
Transformation of memories or echoes into something different.
And I don't feel the hurtin', hurtin' no more
No longer experiencing the same emotional pain when in the presence of the person.
When I'm around you
The person's presence seems to alleviate the emotional pain.
I spent my life searchin', searchin' over
A life spent searching for something.
Lost till I found you
Feeling lost until discovering the person.
You lift me up, up, up, up, up, up, up in the clouds, ooh
Feeling lifted and elated when around the person.
Yeah, I was lost, lost, lost, lost, lost, lost, lost till I found you
Realizing the state of being lost until finding the person.
Nobody lied to you, not in the fairy tales
No deception or falsehood experienced, akin to fairy tales or stories read.
Or in the books that you read in your bedroom
No lies in stories or books read privately.
Beach and adrenaline, washing you fears away
Engaging in activities to wash away fears and anxiety.
You never knew you were lost
Unawareness of being lost until realization dawns.
There was a shadow of us, shadow of us
Remnants or traces of a past relationship evident in everything sought or touched.
In everything I looked for, everything I touched
Those remnants of the relationship echoed in every space.
I heard an echo of you singing in every room
Hearing echoes of the person in every space, slowly fading into something new.
Fading, changing into something new
Transformation of memories or echoes into something different.
And I don't feel the hurtin', hurtin' no more
No longer experiencing the same emotional pain when in the presence of the person.
When I'm around you
The person's presence seems to alleviate the emotional pain.
I spent my life searchin', searchin' over
A life spent searching for something.
Lost till I found you
Feeling lost until discovering the person.
You lift me up, up, up, up, up, up, up in the clouds, ooh
Feeling lifted and elated when around the person.
Yeah, I was lost, lost, lost, lost, lost, lost, lost till I found you
Realizing the state of being lost until finding the person.
I didn't call out, never said, "SOS"
Did not seek help or assistance, did not ask for help via an SOS signal.
I woulda phoned you if I'da known how
Would have reached out if knowing how to.
Up, up, up, up, up, up, up in the clouds, ooh
Feeling lifted and elated when around the person.
Yeah, I was lost, lost, lost, lost, lost, lost, lost till I found you
Realizing the state of being lost until finding the person.
And I don't feel the hurtin', hurtin' no more
No longer experiencing the same emotional pain when in the presence of the person.
When I'm around you
The person's presence seems to alleviate the emotional pain.
I spent my life searchin', searchin' over
A life spent searching for something.
Lost till I found you
Feeling lost until discovering the person.
You lift me up, up, up, up, up, up, up
Feeling lifted and elated when around the person.
Yeah, I was lost (up, up, up, up, up, up, up)
Realizing the state of being lost until finding the person.
You lift me up, up, up, up, up, up, up
Feeling lifted and elated when around the person.
Yeah, I was lost (up, up, up, up, up, up, up)
Realizing the state of being lost until finding the person.
