Roads That Cross
Love's Bittersweet Dance: Roads That Cross
Lyrics
I can still see the grains of dust that danced around the room
I have vivid memories of tiny particles floating in the air within the room.
Ballerinas in the sunlight rays
These particles resembled ballerinas, dancing in the rays of sunlight.
We were stripped down to the pain, we touched souls and faced the blues
We were emotionally exposed, experiencing pain, connecting on a deep level, and confronting sadness.
We never knew that love always fades
We were unaware that love tends to diminish over time.
But it's a joke that time likes to play on hearts, babe
Time ironically mocks our hearts, finding humor in its passage.
Laughing through its old, crooked jaws
Time laughs with its ancient, twisted jaws.
Roads that cross have a way of parting
Crossing roads often leads to separation, as if destined to part ways.
Or else they wouldn't have crossed at all
Alternatively, if roads never parted, they might not have crossed in the first place.
There was a time I believed
There was a time when I believed in an unstoppable connection between us.
There's no stopping you and me
Expressing a belief that nothing could hinder the bond we shared.
You were wind and I was rain
Metaphorically describing the speaker as wind and the other person as rain, emphasizing their complementary natures.
And I don't have the answers,
The speaker lacks answers or solutions to the challenges faced.
I don't know who gets the say
Uncertainty about who holds the authority or control in the relationship.
I just know the clouds are clearing away
Despite the uncertainty, the obstacles are gradually disappearing.
It's a joke that time likes to play on hearts, babe
Time continues to mock the emotions of the heart, laughing at the unpredictability of life.
Laughing through its old, crooked jaws
Time's laughter echoes through its ancient, twisted jaws.
Roads that cross have a way of parting
Reiterating that paths that intersect often lead to separation, suggesting a natural order.
Or else they wouldn't have crossed at all
Alternatively, if paths were not meant to part, they might not have crossed initially.
We really could've made it
Expressing regret that the relationship had the potential to succeed.
We really could've made it baby
Reiterating the missed opportunity and expressing a sense of loss.
Don't you forget
A reminder not to forget the consequences or emotional toll of the past.
I'm still paying the price for that
The speaker is still facing the consequences of the choices made.
