Lyrics
VERSE1
Opening verse, expressing emotional pain and rejection.
A hole in my heart, you pushed me aside
Feelings of being neglected and pushed away.
Asked for a reason, you were telling me lies
Seeking an explanation but receiving deceitful responses.
I'm not hoping, you'll change your mind
Doubtful about the possibility of a change in the other person.
Cuz I don't look back, after I decide,
Decisiveness in moving forward without looking back.
CHORUS1
Transition to the chorus, setting the tone for well-wishing.
I wish you well, but I don't see how you'll ever find anybody better
Expressing goodwill, though skepticism about finding someone better.
I wish you well, and I hope you remember all the times you said it was forever
Well-wishing with a reflection on past promises of eternity.
I wish you well, but I don't know how I ever went on and on and on with it
Good wishes, but acknowledgment of difficulty in moving on.
VERSE2
Beginning of the second verse, addressing outdated perspectives.
Your old world thinking, is getting to me
Criticism of traditional thinking causing distress.
You'll walk in the room, sweep me off my feet
Anticipation of romantic gestures causing emotional turmoil.
You keep circling, waiting to see
Observing the other's behavior, waiting for potential mistakes.
If I make a mistake and get weak in the knees
Fear of vulnerability and making errors in the relationship.
CHORUS2
Return to the chorus, reiterating the conflicting feelings.
I wish you well, but I don't see how you'll ever find anybody better
Repeat of good wishes but doubting the possibility of improvement.
I wish you well, and I hope you remember all the times you said it was forever
Reflecting on past assurances of eternal commitment.
I wish you well, but I don't know how I ever went on and on and on with it
Expressing difficulty in moving forward despite the situation.
BRIDGE
Introduction of the bridge, recalling assurances of improvement.
All the times you said it would get better,
Recollection of promises for a better future.
But I guess it really didn't matter,
Realization that promises didn't impact the outcome.
Deep down I knew I had to let go,
Acknowledgment of the need to let go and move forward.
I knew, I knew....
Repetition emphasizing certainty about the decision.
CHORUS 3
Final chorus, echoing previous sentiments with added emphasis.
I wish you well, but I don't see how you'll ever find anybody better
Well-wishing with persistent doubt about finding a better match.
I wish you well, and I hope you remember all the times you said it was forever
Recollection of enduring promises despite the ultimate separation.
I wish you well, but I don't know how I ever went on and on and on with it
Acknowledgment of the struggle to move on from the relationship.
On and on with it, I went on and on with it, I went on and on with it,
Repetition of the difficulty in letting go, emphasizing persistence.
I went on and on and on and on with it..
Continued emphasis on the prolonged emotional struggle.
