Rosalee's Fading Embers: Love's Echo in the Night
Lyrics
You were one of a kind
You were unique and special.
Like a match before it lights a flame
Similar to a match before ignition, there was potential for something intense.
Sit me down and tell me lies
You sat me down and told me untrue things.
Like how you said nothing could take this away
You assured me that nothing could break us apart.
I never thought that it could end like this
I never expected our relationship to conclude in this manner.
I always thought that every kiss meant something to you
I always believed our kisses held significant meaning for you.
Now every night I lie awake
Now, every night, I am sleepless, reflecting on our shattered plans.
And think about the plans we made
Contemplating the dreams we had together.
Rosalee, I wish it didn't hurt for me to see you
Rosalee, seeing you hurts, and I wish it didn't.
You were next to me, but you never were further away
You were physically close, but emotionally distant.
Rosalee, there's a list of things that I should say to you
Rosalee, there are things I should say, but I won't be passionately in love with you again.
But I will never be desperately in love with you again
Expressing a reluctance to rekindle deep romantic feelings.
You know it only takes a minute
Aware that it takes only a moment for things to change.
For a conversation to shift to you
Conversations easily shift to revolve around you.
They talk of falsehood and deceptions
Talking about falsehoods and deceptions attributed to you.
And how you made them all seem true
How you made these deceptions seem true.
I never thought that it could end like this
Similar to line 5, expressing disbelief in the way the relationship concluded.
I always thought that every kiss meant something to you
Reiterating the belief that kisses held significance for you.
Now every night I lie awake
Repeatedly lying awake at night, pondering broken plans.
And think about the plans we made
Continuing to think about the shattered dreams.
Rosalee, I wish it didn't hurt for me to see you
Rosalee's presence is painful, and the speaker wishes it wasn't.
You were next to me, but you never were further away
Despite physical closeness, emotional distance persists.
Rosalee, there's a list of things that I should say to you
There are things to say to Rosalee, but deep love won't be revived.
But I will never be desperately in love with you again
Reiterating the reluctance to be intensely in love again.
Oh again, and again, and again, burn me again
Repeatedly expressing the pain of being burned again and again.
And again, and again, and again, burn me again
-And again, and again, and again, burn me again
-Light me up and burn me again
-Light me up, burn me again
-Rosalee, there's a list of things I should say to you
-You were next to me, but you never were further away
-Rosalee, I wish it didn't hurt for me to see you
-But I will never be desperately in love with you again
-And again, and again, and again, burn me again
-And again, and again, and again, burn me again
-And again, and again, and again, burn me again
-Light me up and burn me again
-Light me up, burn me again
Repeatedly asking to be ignited and burned again.
