For You Only for You
Tides of Emotion: Julia Fordham's Soulful Journey Through Love
Lyrics
I cried the Solent, the Tyne, the Severn and the Rhine
I expressed sorrow along the Solent, Tyne, Severn, and Rhine rivers.
The Thames and the Seine over again
The Thames and Seine rivers, expressing repeated emotional pain.
But
Transition to a contrasting statement or emotion.
I won't be crying anymore, a lake of tears like I shed
Declaring a resolution to stop crying, referencing past intense emotional experiences.
Before
Referring to a significant amount of tears shed previously.
For you, only for you
Reaffirming the resolution, stating it's exclusively for a particular person.
The Ganges, the Clyde, the Amazon, the Nile
Mentioning various rivers (Ganges, Clyde, Amazon, Nile, Avon, Trent) symbolizing diverse emotional experiences.
The Avon, the Trent, the tears that I spent!
Highlighting the emotional investment represented by tears spent on those rivers.
But
Transitioning to a contrasting emotion or realization.
I won't be crying anymore, all these tears like I shed
Declaring a resolution to stop crying, reminiscent of past emotional struggles.
Before
Referring to a significant amount of tears shed previously, specifically for the same person.
For you, only for you
Reiterating the resolution, emphasizing its exclusivity for a specific individual.
A sea of love runs deep in these veins
Describing a profound and intense emotion, comparing it to a sea of love.
Flooding my heart with anger and pain
Expressing the overwhelming emotions of anger and pain flooding the heart.
The depth of reason, a wave of regret
Reflecting on the depth of reason and a wave of regret in the emotional experience.
But the times that we had I'll never forget
Acknowledging memorable times despite the emotional challenges.
But I won't be crying anymore, all these tears
Declaring a resolution to stop crying, echoing past emotional challenges.
Like I shed before, for you, only for you,
Referencing a significant amount of tears shed previously, exclusively for the same person.
Only for you, only for you, only...
Repeating the exclusivity of the resolution, emphasizing it's solely for a particular individual.
