This Could Be All
Embracing Inevitability: Unspoken Words and Unrealized Plans
Lyrics
And if all the words that I could never say,
The speaker expresses difficulty in expressing certain thoughts or feelings verbally.
it's inevitable that they're never going to go away.
Those unspoken words are likely to persist and not fade away.
And all of the plans, that we could've made,
Reference to unrealized plans that could have been created in the past.
it's inevitable they'll never see the light of day
It's inevitable that those plans will remain unrealized and not come to fruition.
Because this could be all
The speaker contemplates the potential for something significant or transformative.
This could be all
Reiteration of the idea that the situation being described could encompass everything.
Don't you love it when the sun breaks through the clouds on
A moment of appreciation for when sunlight breaks through the clouds during difficult times.
the dark days and you just sit there smiling hoping that it
Expressing a desire for the positive moment to endure, without fading away.
won't go away.
Reflecting on the enjoyment of a moment during dark days and hoping it persists.
Do you remember when the rains came down in summer on
A recollection of rain falling on a hot summer day and finding joy in that experience.
that hot day and you just sat there laughing hoping that it won't go away.
The speaker wishes for the joyous moment in the rain not to be fleeting.
Because this could be all
Reiteration of the potential for something meaningful or transformative in the described situation.
This could be all
Emphasizing the idea that the current situation could encompass everything.
Chorus repeat x 2
Chorus repetition emphasizing the theme of the situation being all-encompassing.
Because this could be all
Reiteration of the idea that the current circumstance has the potential to be all-encompassing.
This could be all
Restatement of the potential for the described situation to be all-encompassing.
