Table for Two
Melancholic Nights: A Tale of Solitude and Second Chances
Lyrics
It's been a long night,
Expressing the passage of time or a challenging period.
and I haven't slept in days.
Conveying fatigue or exhaustion due to a lack of sleep.
Waiting on you,
Implying anticipation and patience for someone.
waiting on me.
Suggesting a mutual waiting between two individuals.
Things aren't as clear now
Noting a sense of confusion or uncertainty compared to the past.
as they were yesterday.
Highlighting a change in clarity or understanding over time.
But life carries on
Drawing a parallel between life and a song, emphasizing continuity.
just like a song.
Suggesting that life, like a song, has its own rhythm and progression.
Well I'm not drinking tonight,
Expressing a decision to abstain from drinking on the current night.
so one bottle of wine will do.
Acknowledging the choice of moderation with only one bottle of wine.
Alone at a table for two.
Describing a lonely situation at a table set for two people.
I must admit I've
Confessing a past action of leaving a restaurant without paying.
skipped on the the check before.
Indicating a reversal of roles, where the other person leaves now.
But now it's you
Suggesting a shift in dynamics, hinting at personal growth.
who's out the back door.
Implying a sense of karma or consequences for actions.
Maybe it my turn.
Expressing a feeling of deserving a positive change or outcome.
Cuz I sure deserve one.
Reflecting on deserving a positive turn of events.
And they say you can't trust a heart
Conveying skepticism about trusting an unbroken heart.
that's not broken before.
Suggesting that trust is built through overcoming challenges.
Well I'm not drinking tonight,
Reiterating the decision to refrain from drinking on the current night.
so one bottle of wine will do.
Reaffirming the choice of having only one bottle of wine.
Alone at a table for two.
Emphasizing the solitude at a table intended for two people.
Alone at a table for two.
Repeating the sense of being alone at the table for two.
Alone at a table for two.
Reiterating the theme of loneliness at the table.
