What We Have
Timeless Bonds: Navigating Life's Paths with Garr Tonick's 'What We Have'
Lyrics
It's been more than a year
Expressing the duration of time, more than a year has passed.
When we're nowhere near
Acknowledging physical distance, not close in proximity.
Meeting daily turns to just a few phone calls
Transition from frequent face-to-face meetings to occasional phone calls.
But I believe this won't affect us at all
Optimistic belief that the separation won't negatively impact the relationship.
How I acted doesn't make any sense
Reflecting on past behavior, admitting confusion or irrational actions.
I rarely talked, buried in my world
Describing introverted tendencies, being absorbed in personal thoughts.
You'd feel like I just want this to end
Suspicions that one's actions may convey a desire for the relationship to end.
But I ain't like that, trust me
Reassurance that intentions are not to end the relationship, asking for trust.
I'm not an outgoing friend
Admitting to being reserved, not inclined to socialize frequently.
But you're important to me, please understand
Emphasizing the importance of the relationship and seeking understanding.
I truly hope that after all these years
Expressing a wish for the relationship to endure over an extended period.
We'll still be sharing joys and tears
Anticipating the continued sharing of both joys and sorrows.
We don't always chat
Acknowledging infrequent communication but expressing confidence in longevity.
But I believe that what we have will last
Belief that the essence of the relationship will withstand challenges.
Now we have different paths to go along
Current divergence in life paths, one working and the other creating music.
You got to work and I got to write this song
Highlighting individual responsibilities, such as work and artistic pursuits.
But what we have reminds us of each other
Affirming that shared experiences bind the relationship despite physical separation.
That's why we still talk shit together
Humorous acknowledgment of engaging in lighthearted banter or teasing.
How I acted doesn't make any sense
Reiteration of past confusing behavior, emphasizing its lack of logical sense.
I rarely talked, buried in my world
Repeating introverted tendencies and immersion in personal thoughts.
You'd feel like I just want this to end
Reassurance that any perceived desire for the relationship to end is untrue.
But I ain't like that, trust me
Reaffirming that one is not inclined to be outgoing, requesting trust.
I'm not an outgoing friend
Reiteration of being reserved but emphasizing the relationship's importance.
But you're important to me, please understand
Re-emphasis on the significance of the relationship and seeking understanding.
I truly hope that after all these years
Repeating the hope for a lasting relationship after the passage of many years.
We'll still be sharing joys and tears
Reiterating the anticipation of continued sharing of joys and sorrows.
We don't always chat
Restating infrequent communication but expressing confidence in longevity.
But I believe that what we have will last
Reiterating belief that the essence of the relationship will withstand challenges.
Oh
Interjection, possibly expressing emotion or emphasis.
I'm not an outgoing friend
Reiteration of not being an outgoing friend but stressing importance.
But you're important to me, please understand
Re-emphasis on the relationship's significance and seeking understanding.
I truly hope that after all these years
Repeating the hope for a lasting relationship after the passage of many years.
We'll still be sharing joys and tears
Reiterating the anticipation of continued sharing of joys and sorrows.
What we have will last
Affirmation that the essence of the relationship will endure.
What we have will last
Repetition for emphasis, underscoring the enduring nature of the relationship.
What we have will last
Continued emphasis on the lasting quality of the relationship.
What we have will last
Final reinforcement of the belief in the enduring nature of the relationship.
