Still Not Ready
Navigating Love's Crossroads: Still Not Ready by Eva Cassidy
Lyrics
Don't make fun we've just begun
Expressing a request not to mock or ridicule because a new phase has just started.
Let's not play just for today
Suggesting to refrain from playing games for the present moment.
Take it slow you'll have to go
Encouraging a slow approach and indicating that there will be a departure.
I think we're through
Conveying a sense of finality, implying the end of a relationship or situation.
I'm still not ready for good times
Expressing a lack of readiness for enjoyable moments or positive experiences.
Don't ask me why
Discouraging inquiry into the reasons behind the emotional state.
Never try laughter before sorrow
Advising against experiencing joy or laughter before addressing sorrow or sadness.
Cross the room let's not assume
Suggesting caution in making assumptions when moving across the room.
We can forgive the way we live
Highlighting the need for forgiveness in the way of life being led.
It's getting cold now
Indicating a shift towards a colder emotional state.
So please close the open door
Requesting the closure of an open door, possibly symbolizing an opportunity or connection.
And all the windows on my soul
Mentioning the need to protect the inner self by closing metaphorical windows.
Don't make fun we've just begun
Repeating the plea not to mock as a new phase has just started.
Let's not play just for today
Reiterating the suggestion to avoid playing games temporarily.
Take it slow you'll have to go
Reemphasizing the need for a slow approach with an impending departure.
I think we're through
Reiterating a sense of finality and a potential end to the current situation.
I'm still not ready for good times
Expressing an ongoing lack of readiness for positive experiences or joy.
Don't ask me why
Discouraging inquiry into the reasons behind the emotional state, repeated from line 7.
Never try laughter before sorrow
Reiterating the advice not to experience joy or laughter before addressing sorrow.
Cross the room let's not assume
Repeating the caution in making assumptions when moving across the room.
We can forgive the way we live
Reiterating the need for forgiveness in the way of life being led.
It's getting cold now
Reiterating a shift towards a colder emotional state, repeated from line 12.
So please close the open door
Repeating the request for the closure of an open door, repeated from line 13.
And all the windows on my soul
Repeating the mention of protecting the inner self by closing metaphorical windows, repeated from line 14.
