I Thought We'd Be
Unraveled Dreams: A Heartbreaking Journey of Love Lost
Lyrics
Thought we'd be taking selfies on the streets of Rome
Anticipation of capturing romantic moments in Rome through selfies.
Or lost in a London café drinking our favorite tea
Imagining being together in a London café, enjoying a favorite tea.
Thought we'd be hanging pictures and making a home
Expectation of creating a home and decorating it with shared memories.
In each other's arms, falling asleep... But now you're
Envisioning falling asleep in each other's arms.
Standing there in the doorway
Noticing a shift as the partner stands in the doorway.
Making us just a memory
Realizing that the relationship has become a mere memory.
Skin to skin, back to strangers again
Describing the physical and emotional distance, going from intimacy to strangers.
That's not what I thought we'd be
Expressing disappointment at the unexpected turn of events.
Thought we'd be that one knee, marry me kind of love
Expecting a deep commitment, possibly marriage proposal.
Thought you'd be the last lips my lips would ever kiss
Believing the partner would be the last love and final kiss.
And I thought I'd be the one thing you could not give up
Assuming a sense of irreplaceability in the partner's life.
And you'd never let it end like this… But you're
Confronting the unexpected and painful ending of the relationship.
Standing there in the doorway
Repeating the image of the partner in the doorway as a symbolic moment.
Making us just a memory
Acknowledging the transition of the relationship into a memory.
Skin to skin, back to strangers again
Highlighting the physical and emotional distance once again.
That's not what I thought we'd be
Reiterating disappointment at the current state of the relationship.
I thought we'd be the ones to make it
Expressing a shared expectation of achieving a lasting relationship.
See those days we dreamed about
Contrasting past dreams with the harsh reality of heartbreak.
Now nothing's real but my heart breaking
Describing the emotional pain of realizing the relationship's dissolution.
Knowing you'd rather live without me… As you're
Understanding that the partner would rather live without the relationship.
Standing there in the doorway
Repeating the poignant image of the partner in the doorway.
Making us just a memory
Acknowledging the transformation of the relationship into a memory.
Skin to skin, back to strangers again
Emphasizing the continued distance, both physically and emotionally.
That's not what I thought we'd be
Reiterating disappointment at the unfulfilled expectations of the relationship.
