Cold Hearted
Eternal Longing: Gary Moore's 'Cold Hearted' Unveiled
Lyrics
It's not the same when I look in her eyes,
Expresses a change or loss of connection when looking into someone else's eyes.
The magic's not there.
Suggests a lack of enchantment or special quality in the current relationship.
And when I look I realise
Realization dawns upon the speaker when observing the potential shared experiences.
What we could have shared.
Reflects on missed opportunities or unexplored possibilities in the relationship.
I'm always gonna love you,
Declares a lasting love, even if the concept of love implies forever.
If loving means forever,
Affirms the commitment to love enduringly.
I'm always gonna want you,
Expresses a persistent desire for the person despite changes in circumstances.
I don't think I could ever
Expresses doubt about the possibility of ever moving on or forgetting the past love.
Just forget the love we had.
Acknowledges the difficulty of erasing the memories of the love they once shared.
It's not the same when she's here in my arms,
Highlights the disparity in feelings when physically close to the current partner.
Or the smile on her face.
Mentions the lack of a comparable emotional connection, like the smile of the previous love.
And even though with all of her charms,
Even with the charms of the current partner, the void left by the previous love remains.
She can't take your place.
Emphasizes that the current partner cannot replace the significance of the past love.
I'm always gonna love you,
Reiterates the enduring nature of the speaker's love, linking it to the concept of forever.
If loving means forever,
Reaffirms the commitment to love enduringly.
I'm always gonna want you,
Expresses a persistent desire for the person despite changes in circumstances.
I don't think I could ever
Expresses doubt about the possibility of ever moving on or forgetting the past love.
Just forget the love we had.
Acknowledges the difficulty of erasing the memories of the love they once shared.
It's not the same when I look in her eyes,
Repeats the sentiment about the lack of magic when looking into the eyes of the current partner.
The magic's not there.
Restates the idea that the enchantment is absent in the current relationship.
And when I look I realize
Reiterates the realization of missed opportunities or unexplored possibilities.
What we could have shared.
Reflects on the sense of loss regarding what could have been shared.
I'm always gonna love you,
Reiterates the enduring nature of the speaker's love, linking it to the concept of forever.
If loving means forever,
Reaffirms the commitment to love enduringly.
I'm always gonna want you,
Expresses a persistent desire for the person despite changes in circumstances.
If loving means forever.
Reiterates the idea that love, if genuine, lasts forever.
I'm always gonna love you,
Emphasizes the enduring nature of the speaker's love.
If loving means forever,
Reaffirms the commitment to love enduringly.
I'm always gonna want you,
Expresses a persistent desire for the person despite changes in circumstances.
If loving is forever.
Concludes by linking the idea of love to the concept of forever.
