How You Feel
Embers of Love: Navigating the Bittersweet Symphony of Feelings
Lyrics
The feeling is fire, Love and desire
The emotion is intense, filled with love and longing.
I hope you know I still feel ways bout you
Expressing lingering emotions and unresolved feelings toward someone.
Love sometimes goes sour
Acknowledging that love can sometimes turn negative or bitter.
it happened to ours
Reflecting on a past relationship that faced difficulties.
But I’ll never forget how you made me feel
Despite the challenges, cherishing the positive impact the person had on the speaker.
Like i was lost but headed in the right direction
Feeling lost but recognizing that the relationship was a step in the right direction.
Nooo one could tell me that things would go left
No one foresaw the relationship taking a negative turn.
Or that I would never understand how we
Expressing a lack of understanding about the events that unfolded.
fall off when we were just falling in love
Contrasting the initial stages of falling in love with the eventual falling out of love.
Or how you just move on after telling me I was the one
Feeling the impact of the partner moving on after claiming the speaker was "the one."
Thought this was for real
Expressing disappointment and disbelief in the authenticity of the relationship.
But since that’s how you feel...
Accepting the reality of the partner's feelings and actions.
So to you
Addressing the partner directly.
Was this just a game
Questioning if the relationship was merely a game for the partner.
If so I’d say well played
If it was a game, acknowledging the partner's skill but questioning the motive.
But what did you gain from breaking me in two
Asking what the partner gained from causing emotional pain.
I....just wanted your last name
Expressing a desire for a deeper commitment, symbolized by wanting the partner's last name.
And I thought you wanted the same
Believing that both partners shared similar long-term goals.
So we could say forever and I do
Envisioning a future together with marriage and commitment ("forever and I do").
Don’t you miss the butterflies
Reminiscing about the initial excitement and passion in the relationship.
Your hands in mines
Recalling the intimacy and connection through physical touch.
But now My heart is half its size
Expressing the emotional pain and the diminished size of the heart after the breakup.
And all I’ll ever think about is how we
Conveying that thoughts are consumed by memories of the past relationship.
