For Claire
Eternal Promises: A Melodic Ode to Timeless Love
Lyrics
I remember the times we laid in my bed
I recall the moments we spent together in my bed
No world outside our room
Our world was confined to the space within our room
I miss the times when real life stayed far away
I long for the times when the challenges of real life seemed distant
We lived okay, okay
We managed to live a satisfactory life
Sleeping at five in the morning, because
Sleeping at 5 AM, likely due to deep conversations about life
We stayed up talking about life, I think
We found joy in discussing and celebrating our lives
We were celebrating our lives, as one
Celebrating life as a united couple
We would always get home so late when we'd
We used to return home very late after driving around the state
Drive around the state for hours, without
Spending hours driving without any regret in our hearts
A bit of chagrin in our hearts, our hearts
Our hearts were free from sorrow during those drives
Both of us will grow old, together
Both of us committed to growing old together
We'll beat the odds
We were determined to overcome challenges
And that's the promise we'll keep so
A promise to endure difficulties and stay true to each other
When we're old we'll be free
Anticipating freedom in old age
We'll live the life we dream of 'cause
Planning to live the life we've always dreamed of
That's the promise we keep
Reiterating the commitment to fulfill promises
Sunday's our days, some ways betray
Sundays hold significance, but some aspects may betray
Sunday's our days, some ways betray
Repetition emphasizing the complex nature of Sundays
Talking with you in the moonlight makes me
Conversations in the moonlight make the speaker appreciate the partner's soul
Have to treasure all of your soul, so I'll
Promising to defend and cherish the partner's joy
Defend all that keeps you joyful, I hope
Expressing hope for making the most of their time together
We can make the most of our time, even
Acknowledging the potential for dark thoughts but vowing to support each other
When we let our minds run dark thoughts, we will
Encouraging each other to keep moving forward
Push each other to keep moving, forward
Reiterating the commitment to grow old together and overcome challenges
Both of us will grow old, together
Expressing determination to beat the odds of life
We'll beat the odds
Repeating the commitment to face challenges together
And that's the promise we'll keep so
Promising freedom in old age
When we're old we'll be free
Reiterating the commitment to live the dreamed-of life
We'll live the life we dream of 'cause
Emphasizing the enduring memory of the partner now lost
That's the promise we keep
Expressing determination to find the lost partner until the end
I won't forget you, now that you're lost
Reiterating the commitment to remember the lost partner
Trapped in another realm locked from me
Describing the partner as trapped in another realm, inaccessible
I swear I'll find you; till my last breath
A solemn vow to search for the partner until the last breath
I won't forget you, now that you're gone
Reiterating the difficulty of forgetting the departed partner
Trapped in another realm lost to me
Expressing the feeling of the partner being lost in an unreachable realm
I know I'll find you with my last breath
Confident in finding the lost partner even in the face of mortality
