The Future
Navigating Time Together: London Sadness Unveils a Vision in 'The Future'
Lyrics
I look into your eyes and see myself
I see a reflection of myself when I look into your eyes.
But is everything in us so similar?
Questioning the extent of our similarities.
You live in the past, and I try to imagine the future
You dwell on the past, while I am focused on envisioning the future.
But what if I still don’t see anything ahead?
Expressing uncertainty about not perceiving anything in the future.
The past cannot be changed
Highlighting the immutability of the past.
The future is unknown
Pointing out the unpredictability of the future.
But what to do with the present?
Pondering what to do with the present moment.
I do not know.
Expressing uncertainty or indecision about the present.
You and I have one goal, to understand what awaits us next
Stating a shared goal between the speaker and the listener.
Are you going to trust this to someone else besides me?
Asking if the listener will entrust the shared goal to someone else.
I do not think so.
Expressing doubt that the listener would do so.
Let's try from scratch
Suggesting a fresh start or a new beginning.
Forget everything we did wrong
Advocating for forgetting past mistakes.
We should not be alone
Emphasizing the need for companionship and not being alone.
In this struggle for the future
Acknowledging a joint effort or struggle for the future.
Let's try again
Reiterating the idea of giving it another try.
Forget everything that we did wrong
Encouraging to forget past mistakes once again.
We should not be alone
Reemphasizing the importance of companionship in the struggle for the future.
In this struggle for our future, for our home.
Highlighting the joint effort for the future and home.
You, me and our new wonderful world
Envisioning a new world shared by the speaker and the listener.
It sounds romantic
Acknowledging the romanticized notion but anticipating a different reality.
But the reality is often quite different
Contrasting the romanticized idea with the often challenging reality.
But the main thing is that again we have each other
Emphasizing the importance of having each other despite challenges.
In joy and sorrow
Acknowledging the shared experience of joy and sorrow.
