I Can't Unlove You
Eternal Echoes of Love's Unforgettable Embrace
Lyrics
I can throw out the t-shirt I slept in when we were together
I can discard the t-shirt I wore when we were a couple
But I can't unwear it
But I cannot erase the experience of wearing it
Never go to the beach, where we swore, you and me were forever
I avoid going to the beach where we promised eternal love
But I can't unswear it
But I cannot erase the commitment we made
I can change my routine
I can alter my daily habits
Drive down different streets,
Drive on different roads
But I can't outrun all the you that's in me
Yet, I cannot escape the part of you ingrained within me
Damn, I can't unlove you
Expresses frustration at the inability to stop loving
Unlight that spark, unfeel your arms
Undo the initial attraction, unfeel the embrace
Wrapped around me every night
Remember your arms holding me every night
And see the fire in your eyes
Recall the intensity in your gaze
I can't, some things I can't undo
Acceptance of certain irreversible actions
Unfeel your touch that I miss so much
Regret over the longing for your touch
Don't you think if I could find a way tonight I'd want to?
Expresses willingness to undo if possible
But damn, I can't unlove you
Reiterates the frustration of being unable to unlove
I can go about my day then a friend says your name
Normal activities disrupted by hearing your name
And I hate that they can't unsay it
Disapproval of spoken words that cannot be unsaid
I can throw out the wine that we drank all the time
Discarding memories associated with shared wine
Oh, but I, I can't untaste it
But unable to forget the taste of it
Damn, I can't unlove you
Reiterates frustration at the inability to unlove
Unlight that spark, unfeel your arms
Undo the initial spark, unfeel the embrace
Wrapped around me every night
Remembering your nightly presence around me
And see the fire in your eyes
Recall the intensity in your gaze
I can't, some things I can't undo
Acceptance of certain irreversible actions
Unfeel your touch that I miss so much
Regret over the longing for your touch
Don't you think if I could find a way tonight I'd want to?
Expresses willingness to undo if possible
But damn, I can't unlove you
Reiterates the frustration of being unable to unlove
I can't, I can't unlove you
Emphasizes the impossibility of unloving
I can change my routine
Repetition of the theme of changing routines
Drive down different streets
Driving on different streets as an attempt to move on
But I can't outrun all the you that's in me
Highlighting the inability to escape memories
Damn, I can't unlove you
Expresses frustration at the inability to stop loving
Unlight that spark, unfeel your arms
Undo the initial spark, unfeel the embrace
Wrapped around me every night
Remembering your nightly presence around me
And see the fire in your eyes
Recall the intensity in your gaze
I can't, some things I can't undo
Acceptance of certain irreversible actions
Unfeel your touch that I miss so much
Regret over the longing for your touch
Don't you think if I could find a way tonight I'd want to?
Expresses willingness to undo if possible
But damn, I can't unlove you
Reiterates the frustration of being unable to unlove
(I can't unlove you)
Concluding acknowledgment of the inability to unlove
