Said So Long
Said So Long: Embracing Gratitude, Musical Journeys, and the Eternal Echo of Bowie
Lyrics
I'm gonna stop singing sad songs for a while
Expressing the intention to stop singing melancholic songs temporarily.
No dark clouds gathering over my mind
Declaring a desire to move away from negative thoughts or emotions.
I wanna try saying thank you to blue sky
Expressing a wish to express gratitude to the clear blue sky.
And thank you sunshine
Thanking the sunshine, possibly symbolizing positivity or brighter days.
I never got to meet Bowie makes me cry
Reflecting on the emotional impact of not having met David Bowie.
I still put on his records make me smile
Finding solace and joy in listening to David Bowie's records.
Figure I'll still be playing my songs long after you're all gone
Confident about the enduring legacy of the singer's own songs.
I've always been my best audience
Acknowledging self-enjoyment as the primary audience for the singer's music.
Watch my bedroom become all the stages of the world
Describing a personal space transforming into a representation of global stages.
Throw me flowers swine and pearls
Expressing a desire for recognition and appreciation in the form of flowers, swine, and pearls.
So you never got to be in Roxy Music
Not achieving a specific aspiration (being in Roxy Music).
But you've still got your guitar and your dad's four track
Finding value in personal possessions, such as a guitar and a four-track recorder from the father.
Who wants to watch another singer getting old making tired rock and roll
Questioning the appeal of watching another aging singer in the rock and roll genre.
These things they are for me now you can take it what you like
Stating a personal shift in priorities, emphasizing individual preferences.
I sing the songs I make my life
Affirming the importance of singing one's own songs as a meaningful part of life.
And I have found the door out from my mind
Expressing a sense of liberation or escape from negative thoughts or emotions.
I've said so long black moon bye bye
Bidding farewell to a dark or negative phase symbolized by the "black moon."
