Lyrics

I've been romanced dined and danced

I've experienced romance, fine dining, and dancing.

Crazy nights and wild times

Engaged in crazy nights and wild times.

But my life has lost it's mystery

Despite these experiences, my life has lost its sense of mystery.

Love is blind and it cannot find me

Love is elusive, and I feel unseen or unnoticed by it.


I'm blowing away

I feel like I'm being blown away, overwhelmed or losing control.

Shadows take my love and leave

Shadows, representing challenges or difficulties, take away my love.

I'm blowing away

Reiteration of feeling blown away and losing love to shadows.

Shadows keep taking my love and leaving me

Shadows persistently take my love, leaving me in a state of loss.


And I have cast aside my foolish pride

I've let go of my pride, perhaps acknowledging mistakes or vulnerabilities.

And I'm going down for the last time

I'm facing a significant downfall or difficult situation.

And I have searched this earth

I've extensively searched this earth for meaning or fulfillment.

And I've sailed these seas

Metaphorically sailed seas, possibly representing life's journeys.

Love is blind and it cannot find me

Love continues to elude me, remaining unseen or unattainable.

I'm blowing away

Reiteration of feeling overwhelmed or losing control.

Shadows take my love and leave

Challenges or difficulties persistently take away my love.

I'm blowing away

Emphasizes the recurring theme of being blown away and losing love.

Shadows keep taking my love and leaving me

Continued struggle as shadows persist in taking love away.

You keep taking my love and leaving me

Expressing the repeated experience of having love taken away.
