Down to You
Eternal Echoes: Unraveling Love and Loss in 'Down to You'
Lyrics
I took your hand
I made a commitment or connection with you.
The world was young
At that time, the world seemed full of possibilities and potential.
Now you're the smoke
Now, you've become elusive or intangible, like smoke.
And I'm the lung
I am left to deal with the consequences, like a vital organ affected by smoke.
The sea was full
The sea, once abundant, is now devoid of something significant.
It's empty now
What was once full and vibrant is now empty and lacking.
And there you were
You were present in that moment, and I am uncertain about how you fit into the current situation.
I don't know how
The mystery of your presence confounds me.
It's so sad, it's so sad
There is a deep sense of sorrow or regret.
It's too bad we bought this
We are dealing with the consequences of a purchase or decision.
It's down to you
The responsibility or outcome now rests on you.
It's down to you
The burden or consequence is solely yours to bear.
It's down to you
Emphasizing that the situation is entirely in your control.
And though its not true, it's down to you
Even if it's not entirely accurate, the situation is attributed to you.
It was raining like the end of the world
The setting was intense, perhaps symbolizing a challenging period.
Under covers we were children curled
We sought refuge, reverting to a more innocent or childlike state.
Or were we ancients who bumped our heads and never got out of bed?
Reflecting on whether we are stuck in a less evolved state due to past experiences.
Tell me, baby, everything I know
Asking for clarification or affirmation of what I believe.
It's not as if we have another place to go
We don't have alternative options; we are stuck in this situation.
You told me once and you told me real nice
You conveyed a message to me, emphasizing the current state as paradise.
This is paradise
The responsibility for this paradise or situation lies with you.
It's down to you
Reiterating that the outcome or situation is now dependent on you.
Sure as I'm blue, it's down to you
Expressing certainty about the emotional state, linking it to you.
It's down to you
Repeating the idea that the situation is under your influence.
Sure as I'm blue, it's down to you
Reiterating the emotional impact, emphasizing your role.
It's down to you
Summarizing that the current situation's responsibility lies with you.
