Lyrics

Keep your fingers

Keep your emotions restrained

Pressed against your lips

Stay silent or don't speak about it

Just pretend that

Act as if the romantic moment never happened

We never kissed

Denial of a past romantic encounter


Take these pictures

Remove reminders of the past

Down from where they stand

Take down images or memories

No one will notice

Hide the changes in our relationship

The change in our plans

People won't notice the altered plans


Side swept

Expressing a feeling of being captivated

I've fallen for you

Acknowledging a deep emotional fall

Fallen so hard that I

Emphasizing the intensity of the emotional impact

Can't make do

Unable to cope with the emotions

I hope we love someday soon

Desiring a future love but uncertain

But right now I can't see this through

Current inability to navigate the emotions


I wanted this more than I could know

Initial desire overshadowed by reality

Now I have it, I have to let it go

Having what was wanted but needing to let go

I don't know me but it takes time

Self-discovery takes time

To know yourself while not

Understanding oneself without being restricted

In this bind

Feeling constrained in the current situation


Side swept

Reiteration of being captivated emotionally

I've fallen for you

Reaffirming the intensity of the emotional fall

Fallen so hard that I

Stating the difficulty in moving on

Can't make do

Expressing the struggle to cope with the emotions

I hope we love someday soon

Desiring a future love despite current challenges

But right now I can't see this through

Uncertainty about navigating the present emotions


I can't love you

Inability to love without agreement

If I can't agree

Emphasizing the need for mutual understanding

So let's just skip the cliches

Avoiding cliches in addressing the situation

And set us free

Proposing a straightforward resolution


Side swept

Reiteration of being emotionally captivated

I've fallen for you

Reaffirming the deep emotional fall

Fallen so hard that I

Stating the difficulty in moving on

Can't make do

Expressing the struggle to cope with the emotions

I hope we love someday soon

Desiring a future love despite current challenges

But right now I can't see this through

Uncertainty about navigating the present emotions
