Yearning Seasons: A Tale of Love, Loss, and Black Cats
Lyrics
I'm jealous by the lake
I feel envious near the lake
Of how little space I take to you
Expressing a sense of insignificance in your life
'Cause to me you take my whole view
You occupy my entire perspective
Well I'm sick of it and I'm sick of you
Frustration with the situation and the person
And don't fade away
Requesting not to disappear like a summer day
Like that summer day
Comparing the fading away to a summer day now filled with rain
Now filled with rain
Reflecting a change in the emotional climate
You don't call when you're around back in Jersey
Not receiving calls while in Jersey
"Can we stay friends?"
Asking if the relationship can remain as friends
You let me down
Feeling disappointed by the person
Black Cat, you know you set my heart and soul aglow
Expressing admiration for someone named Black Cat
A kotatsu for your home
Suggesting the idea of a kotatsu as a symbol of warmth and home
And Black Cat, you should know
Implying the person has the power to ignite emotions
Oh turn me on when you need me
Expressing a desire to be turned on when needed and turned off when not
Turn me off when you don't
Establishing a metaphorical switch in the relationship
And don't fly away
Asking not to fly away like an autumn leaf
Like an autumn leaf
Comparing the departure to the falling of autumn leaves
What you mean to me
Expressing the importance of the person
Please don't fade away
Pleading not to fade away like snowfall on the ground
Like the snowfall on the ground
Questioning if the relationship is still intact
Are we still friends?
Admitting personal failure in the relationship
I let you down
And Kanon. you know
Referring to someone named Kanon
You've got somewhere to go
Acknowledging that Kanon has a place to go
A place to call home
Describing a place to call home for Kanon
And Kanon, you should know
Telling Kanon about leaving one's heart on an altar
I left my heart upon your altar
Offering what is wanted from the speaker
What you want from me I'll offer
Committing to fulfill the offered request
