Ain't It A Shame
Heartbreak Melody: Karli Lar Durden's Tale of Moving On
Lyrics
How I wished it were
Expressing a desire for a different reality or outcome.
The old days
Nostalgic reference to a previous time.
When you rubbed me
Describing a past intimacy or closeness.
The right way
Suggesting a longing for a more affectionate treatment.
Oh our love is
Acknowledging the end of a romantic relationship.
Dead and gone
Stating that the love is no longer present.
So I must be
Recognizing the need to move forward.
Movin' on
Expressing the decision to continue with life.
So I'll write to myself
Choosing self-reflection and seeking personal growth.
And I'll read more self help
Embracing self-help as a means of coping or improvement.
Cuz you
Implying a lack of honesty in the past relationship.
Couldn't tell the whole truth
Highlighting the difficulty of getting the complete truth.
You broke my heart into pieces
Describing emotional pain caused by a breakup.
And you threw it across the floor
Visualizing the destructive impact on the heart.
And often I think I should miss this
Contemplating the ambivalence of missing the past love.
But I guess I won't anymore
Resolving not to miss the relationship anymore.
One, two, three, four
Counting, possibly symbolizing a progression of time.
Baby
Addressing the ex-partner with a term of endearment.
Ain't it a shame
Expressing regret or disappointment in the situation.
Cuz now you're gone
Acknowledging the departure of the ex-partner.
And I've moved on
Confirming personal progress and moving on.
And I wish
Expressing a desire to have spoken one's mind earlier.
I could of said
Regretting unspoken thoughts or feelings.
All those things I meant
Expressing the desire to convey sincere emotions.
So long my friend, my friend
Saying farewell to the ex-partner.
