Once More With Feeling
Rediscovering Emotions: A Journey Through Love's Melody
Lyrics
We're just goin' through the motions
We are going through the motions.
Of the parts we've learned to play
Playing the roles we've learned, but not fully connected.
Never quite together like before
Not as harmonious as in the past.
But somehow darlin' something good
Despite difficulties, something good was lost.
Got lost along the way
We've lost a positive aspect along the journey.
And our song ain't nothing
Our song has lost its special quality.
Special anymore
The connection is no longer extraordinary.
Let's try it one more time
Suggesting to give it another try.
With feeling darlin', take it from the top
Performing with genuine emotion from the beginning.
Let me feel those tears a fallin' babe
Expressing the desire to feel genuine tears.
I don't want to miss a single drop
Not wanting to miss any emotional moments.
Darlin' make believe your makin'
Asking to pretend and make the emotions believable.
Me believe each word you say
Urging to make each spoken word believable.
Try it once more with feeling
Encouraging to try again with true emotion.
And we'll call it a day
Suggesting that trying again might conclude the relationship.
Ah you're reachin' out to touch me
Noticing an attempt to reconnect physically.
Darlin' just the way you used to do
Recalling past affectionate gestures.
An you're lookin' everywhere but
Being looked at, but not into the eyes.
In my eyes
Pointing out a lack of genuine connection.
Well that's an oldy but it's a goody babe
Referencing a familiar phrase about the situation.
But them words ain't ringin' true
Noticing insincerity in spoken words.
And you don't seem very sure of your life
Expressing uncertainty about life and the relationship.
So try it one more time with feeling
Suggesting another attempt with genuine emotion.
Darlin' take it from the top
Starting anew with sincerity.
This one is the big one baby so give
Highlighting the importance of the current attempt.
It everything you got
Encouraging to give the best effort.
Darlin' make believe your makin' me
Requesting believable emotional expression.
Believe each word you say
Emphasizing the importance of truthful communication.
Let's try it once more with feeling
Suggesting one more try with genuine emotion.
And we'll call it a day
Implying that this attempt might determine the fate of the relationship.
