Lyrics
For decades I have waited for your response
Expressing a long period of anticipation for a response.
Cause deep inside I felt that we had bonded long ago
Feeling a deep connection that has existed for a considerable time.
Now a lifetime has passed before my eyes
Reflecting on the passing of a lifetime.
But I've seen nothing but your face behind the veil of that snow white dress
Noticing only the image of the person's face, hidden behind a snow white dress.
We were meant to be for eternity
Expressing a belief in a destined eternal connection.
Spent your twenties between the sheets with everyone except me
Regretting the missed intimacy during the partner's twenties.
What was left for me
Questioning what is left for the speaker in the relationship.
Couldn't eat sleep couldn't be
Experiencing emotional and physical distress, affecting daily life.
Call it insanity
Referring to the challenging emotional state as insanity.
My blushing bride I'm back
The speaker is back and addressing the partner as their blushing bride.
I lived this life for so long
Acknowledging a long period of living a certain way.
Unknowing or not you should have seen you're top of priority for me
Asserting that the partner should have recognized their importance.
Now a lifetime has passed before my eyes
Repeating the idea of a lifetime passing, still fixated on the partner's face.
But I have still seen nothing but your face behind the veil of that snow white dress
Reiterating the image of the partner's face behind a snow white dress.
We were meant to be for eternity
Reaffirming the belief in a destined eternal connection.
Spent my twenties in solitary
Describing a period of solitude during the speaker's twenties.
Now our time has come
Indicating that the time for action has arrived.
On your knees
Directing the partner to kneel.
Ready or no there I come
Announcing the speaker's arrival regardless of the partner's readiness.
All over you my pale white bride
Describing a physical act involving the pale white bride.
Now I'm free
Expressing a sense of freedom now that a certain event has occurred.
With you lying here next to me
Enjoying the presence of the partner lying next to the speaker.
You are cold all over now
Observing the partner's coldness extending beyond the heart.
Not just your heart
Reflecting on what remains for the speaker in the relationship.
What was left for me
Experiencing emotional and physical distress, affecting daily life (repeated).
Couldn't eat sleep couldn't be
Referring to the challenging emotional state as insanity (repeated).
Call it insanity
Reiterating the idea of emotional challenges labeled as insanity.
My blushing bride I'm back
Addressing the partner again as the blushing bride.
My blushing bride goodbye
Bidding farewell to the blushing bride.
