piece of you
Fragments of Love: J. Maxwell's Melancholic Reflections
Lyrics
What are we now
Reflecting on the present state of the relationship
After all that we've been through
Contemplating the shared experiences
Does this still make sense
Questioning the continued relevance of the relationship
'Cause you don't laugh like you used to
Noticing a change in the partner's laughter
Did you notice me
Wondering if the partner observed the speaker
While I stood there waiting
Recalling a moment of anticipation
I laid it out for you
Expressing feelings openly to the partner
And you didn't say a word
Receiving no response from the partner
And I'll remember
Reflecting on a memorable experience
I'll remember how you cared so much about me
Recalling the partner's past care and affection
It was fun until your feelings changed one day
Acknowledging a shift in the partner's feelings
'Cause I know that you felt like I did
Believing the partner shared similar emotions
And I've still got the smallest piece of you
Retaining a small part of the partner emotionally
Our love it didn't last
Acknowledging the short-lived nature of their love
It was bright but gone in an instant
Describing the fleeting nature of their relationship
Oh, I blamed myself for your reasons
Self-blame for the end of the relationship
Time could never heal this
Expressing the enduring pain that time cannot heal
Time could never heal this
Repeating the idea that time cannot heal
And I'll remember
Recalling the partner's lack of concern in the past
I'll remember how you didn't care about me
Remembering a time of emotional emptiness
It was the emptiest I've ever felt
Expressing the depth of emotional void experienced
I prayed
Expressing hope for the partner to empathize
That one day you'd feel just like I did
Desiring the partner to feel the same as the speaker
But I've still got the smallest piece of you
Retaining a small emotional connection to the partner
All the times that you cried
Recalling instances of the partner's tears
Our second date in the moonlight
Remembering a romantic date under the moonlight
Makes me realize why we chose this
Realizing the significance of their choices
All the things that made you smile
Recalling things that brought joy to the partner
How you would sing once in a while
Noting the partner's occasional singing
It's what led us to this moment
Connecting shared experiences to their current situation
All the times that you cried
Repeating the emotional impact of partner's tears
Our second date in the moonlight
Recalling a romantic moonlit date again
Makes me realize why we chose this
Affirming the significance of their choices once more
All the things that made you smile
Revisiting memories associated with the partner's joy
How you would sing once in a while
Remembering the partner's occasional singing again
It's what led us to this moment
Linking past experiences to the present moment
And I'll remember
Reflecting on the partner's past gaze
I'll remember how you used to look at me
Recalling a time of extreme happiness with the partner
It was the happiest I've ever been
Expressing a wish for the partner to understand
I prayed
Hoping for the partner to share the speaker's current feelings
That one day you'd feel just like I do
Desiring the partner to experience the same emotions
'Cause I've still got the smallest piece of you
Maintaining a small emotional connection with the partner
'Cause I've still got the smallest piece of you
Reiterating the retention of a fragment of the partner emotionally
