Lyrics
There were times when this space was filled with more than silence
Reflecting on a time when the space was filled with more than silence.
When every word that we whispered could vibrate the walls
Recalling a past where whispered words had a significant impact, resonating strongly.
Now I'm alone in this centre-ville apartment
Expressing solitude in a city apartment (centre-ville) after a separation.
And it's been several days since I took your calls
Acknowledging a period of time without receiving calls from the person mentioned.
And you should know this isn't nothin' personal
Clarifying that the situation is not a personal rejection.
You see, I haven't left my bed in days
Indicating a prolonged period of staying in bed without leaving.
The moon waxes and wanes just like she's supposed to
Observing the natural cycle of the moon and its parallels to life.
And I watch paralyzed in this liminal state
Being emotionally paralyzed and stuck in a transitional or in-between state.
But I don't miss you anymore
Affirming that there is no longing or missing the person anymore.
No, and I, I'm feeling fine
Emphasizing a positive emotional state, no longer affected by the past.
As it turns out you're the last thing on my mind
Revealing that the person is no longer a dominant thought.
These days
Describing the current state of emotional well-being.
Sometimes I wish I could forget all these moments
Expressing a desire to forget and distance from certain memories.
Just wrap them up and ship them somewhere warm
Imagining the possibility of relocating or discarding memories to a warmer place.
Or throw them into the ocean in a bottle
Suggesting the metaphor of casting memories into the ocean in hopes they reach a distant shore.
So one day they'll wash up on a distant shore
Longing for a separation from past experiences that may wash up in a different context.
But I don't miss you anymore
Reiterating the absence of longing or missing the person.
No, and I, I'm feeling fine
Restating positive emotions and well-being without the person in mind.
As it turns out you're the last thing on my mind
Affirming the person's diminished significance in current thoughts.
These days
Reiterating the present emotional state.
These days
Repetition for emphasis on the current emotional state.
Cause when I'm feeling down and out
Expressing vulnerability and a need for support during difficult times.
And my heart's all full out doubt
Describing a state of uncertainty and insecurity in the heart.
You bring me back
Acknowledging the positive impact the person has in bringing stability.
Oh you bring me back to the ground
Highlighting the supportive role of the person in grounding emotions.
When my head's all stuck in the clouds
Describing a state of daydreaming or being detached from reality.
Darling, you lift me up
Expressing gratitude for the person's role in uplifting and supporting.
Oh, you lift me up
Reiterating the uplifting role of the person in a proud manner.
And you hold me there tall and proud
Acknowledging the person's support and the strength derived from it.
Darling, bless your little heart
Expressing appreciation and blessing for the person's positive impact.
