Lyrics
He stopped by the other day
Someone visited recently.
Said he came to say he was leavin'
He came to announce his departure.
She just closed the door,let out a sigh
She closed the door and expressed relief with a sigh.
No more tears to cry
No more tears left to shed.
Now he's gone
He has left.
No more tears
No more sorrowful emotions.
All the tears i cried have dried
All the tears she shed have dried up.
Like fading diamonds in an ebbtide
Comparing dried tears to fading diamonds in an ebbtide, symbolizing the passing of emotional turbulence.
Made her way back to the willow tree
She returns to a willow tree.
Heard a honey bee humming softly
She hears a honey bee humming softly, suggesting nature's calmness.
Saw the carving,still so very clear
Observing a carving, likely a memory of Jack and Jill.
Jack and Jill were here-now they're gone
Jack and Jill were once present, but now they're gone.
So many tears
Many tears have been shed.
All the years i lived have died
All the years she lived have come to an end.
Like fading diamonds in an ebbtide
Comparing the passage of time to fading diamonds in an ebbtide.
Time to put away the fairytale
It's time to let go of fairytales and face reality.
Let your ship set sail to the future
Encouraging to move forward toward the future.
'Cause in the mirror there's a woman now
Seeing a mature reflection of herself in the mirror.
The child remains somehow
The child within her remains in some way.
Never gone
The child is never entirely gone.
No more fears
No more fears lingering.
All the fears i has subside
All the fears she had are subsiding.
Like fading diamonds in an ebbtide
Comparing subsiding fears to fading diamonds in an ebbtide.
All the tears i cried have dried
All the tears she cried have completely dried up.
Like fading diamonds in an ebbtide
Again, comparing dried tears to fading diamonds in an ebbtide.
All the fears i has subside
All the fears she had are continuing to subside.
Like fading diamonds in an ebbtide
Reiterating the comparison of subsiding fears to fading diamonds in an ebbtide.
