There Goes My Everything
Lost Love Chronicles: Unveiling the Heartache in 'There Goes My Everything'
Lyrics
There goes my only possession
He has lost his only possession.
There goes my everything
He has lost everything that mattered to him.
I hear footsteps slowly walking
He hears slow footsteps, possibly indicating someone leaving.
As they gently walk across a lonely floor
These footsteps are gentle and echo in an empty or desolate space.
And a voice is softly saying
Someone is softly speaking to him.
Darling, this will be goodbye forevermore
The voice is conveying that the separation will be permanent.
There goes my reason for living
He feels he's lost the purpose or motivation for living.
There goes the one of my dreams
He has lost the person who was the embodiment of his dreams.
There goes my only possession
Repetition of the loss of his only possession and everything.
There goes my everything
Reiteration of losing everything valuable to him.
As my memory turns back the pages
Reflecting on past memories, possibly happier times.
I can see the happy tears we had before
He recalls moments of shared joy and tears of happiness.
Now the love that kept this old heart beating
The love that gave him life and purpose has ended abruptly.
Has been shattered by the closing of a door
His heartache is intensified by the finality of the departure.
There goes my reason for living
Reiteration of losing the purpose or reason to live.
There goes the one of my dreams
He lost the person who was the realization of his dreams.
There goes my only possession
Repetition emphasizing the loss of his only possession.
There goes my everything
Reiteration of having lost everything that was precious to him.
