Warm Light
Lost Love Illuminated: Julia Wallace's Warm Light Revelations
Lyrics
What did I do, I used to be in love with you
Reflecting on past actions wondering what led to the change in feelings from love to something else.
Writing at the table, don’t wanna wake the neighbours,
Engaged in writing, trying to be quiet as not to disturb neighbors, possibly hoping for a visit from the person addressed in the song.
but if you’ll come over yeah I’ll still be here
Expressing readiness to meet or stay available if the person mentioned decides to come over.
Falling asleep at five PM, my dog has hurt his foot again,
Describing a mundane yet caring moment, tending to a pet that’s injured.
and just like that, you stuck around for ten
Surprised or reflective about the person's continued presence despite certain situations.
What did I do, I used to be in love with you
A repetition emphasizing confusion or disbelief about the shift in emotions.
Warm light to cool light, how do I write something you’d actually like?
Expressing uncertainty about creating something that the person addressed might appreciate.
I think I’m going to a vague destination
Feeling directionless or unclear about where life or the relationship is headed.
I hope you’re sick of this chord progression
Expressing a hope that the person is tired or fed up with a repeated musical sequence.
I hope you like my lack of intentions
Expressing acceptance or contentment with being directionless or having no specific plans.
What did I do, I used to be in love with you
Repeated contemplation about the change in feelings from love to something different.
I never told you how much
Admitting to the depth of missing physical contact or closeness.
I really missed your touch
Expressing a longing for the person's touch.
But now we’re talking I can’t, can’t get the words out
Feeling unable to express emotions when finally given the chance to talk.
Can’t get the words out
Reiterating the difficulty in expressing thoughts or feelings verbally.
Though it was only few times
Reminiscing about persistent thoughts of the person despite limited interactions.
Couldn’t get you out of my mind
Emphasizing the impact the person had on the singer's thoughts.
But now we’re talking I can’t, can’t get the words out
Repeating the struggle to articulate feelings or thoughts in conversation.
Can’t get the words out
Reiterating the difficulty in expressing thoughts or feelings verbally.
What did I do?
Repeating the question about the actions that led to changes in the relationship.
Can’t get the words out
Continuing to struggle with verbalizing thoughts or emotions.
Warm light to cool light
Reiteration of the uncertainty in creating something appreciated by the addressed person.
I used to be in love with you
Reiterating the past feeling of love towards the person.
Can’t get the words out
Continuing difficulty expressing thoughts or emotions verbally.
Warm light to cool light
Reiterating the uncertainty in creating something appreciated by the addressed person.
