Like the Seasons
Echoes of Blue: Honeywaves Unravels the Bittersweet Symphony of Love
Lyrics
Don't tell me
Expressing a request not to disclose something
You still think we'll stay together
Addressing the belief that the relationship will endure
I've been clear enough
Stating a clear position or viewpoint
I just can't keep this up
Acknowledging inability to sustain the current situation
Though I've tried
Despite efforts, love is not regenerating
Love won't grow back
Remaining in bed, possibly in emotional distress
I stay in bed
Not curious about partner's whereabouts
And I'm not wondering where you've been
Indifference to the partner's actions
I don't hold your hand
Avoiding physical closeness, even in dreams
In my dreams
Confirming emotional detachment
And though I'm sad
Sadness not attributed to the partner
You're not the cause
Clarifying the partner's innocence in causing sadness
I just need to make sure
Need for emotional self-check
I can still feel pain
Desire to experience pain as a form of validation
I deserve it all
Acceptance of deserving all consequences
It all
Emphasizing acceptance of all consequences
'Cause when I see your white
Associating the partner's presence with a color
I think of blue
Linking the partner's color to a different emotion
I'd say I couldn't take life without you
Admitting dependency but asserting independence
But I could
Expressing the ability to live without the partner
I could
Reiterating the capability to move on
When I see your white
Recalling emotions associated with the partner's color
I think of blue
Connecting partner's color to a specific emotion
I'd say I couldn't take life without you
Acknowledging potential separation from the partner
But I could
Reaffirming the ability to endure life without the partner
I could
Emphasizing self-sufficiency
I just need to make sure
Repeating the need for emotional self-check
I can still feel pain
Desiring to feel pain as a validation of emotions
I deserve it all
Reiterating the acceptance of all consequences
It all
Emphasizing acceptance of all aspects of life
'Cause when I see your white
Revisiting the association of the partner's color with an emotion
I think of blue
Linking partner's color to a specific emotional response
I'd say I couldn't take life without you
Expressing dependency while acknowledging independence
But I could
Acknowledging the capacity to face life without the partner
I could
Reiterating the ability to move on independently
When I see your white
Recalling emotions associated with the partner's color
I think of blue
Linking partner's color to a specific emotional response
I'd say I couldn't take life without you
Admitting dependency but asserting independence
But I could
Expressing the ability to live without the partner
I could
Reiterating the capability to move on
I could, I could, I could
Emphasizing the potential to move on and endure
I could, I could, I could
Repeating the assertion of capability to endure
Oh-ohh oh-oh-oh-oh-ohh
Vocalization, possibly expressing emotional turmoil
Ohh
Vocalization or sigh, conveying emotional depth
Mmh
Musical sound or expression, possibly adding emotional nuance
